While he opts not to repeat this specific formula too many times, he shows that single was no fluke with the Tainy-produced “Desenfocao'” and its hedonistic haze. The radical pop pivot of “Todo De Ti” proved a transformational moment in his ascent to stardom, its epic clubby funk and irresistible chorus hook translating to a smash hit throughout the Spanish-speaking world. His disinterest in being pigeonholed or limited to any one lane, as alluded to on that album’s delightful dance-floor outlier “Algo Mágico”, led to some exciting moments of risk-taking on his follow-up VICE VERSA. There were undeniable glimmers of that on his full-length debut Afrodisíaco, with more than its fair share of high-profile guests. Among the many reasons why Rauw Alejandro has become one of the most sought-after singers in the Latin music world, his restless creativity certainly ranks highly.
