"Despacito"
Song

"Despacito" (Spanish pronunciation: [despa'sito]; English: "Slowly") is a single by Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi featuring Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee from the former's upcoming studio album.[1] On January 12, 2017, Universal Music Latin released "Despacito" and its music video, which shows both artists performing the song in La Perla neighborhood of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico and the local bar La Factoría. The song was written by Luis Fonsi, Erika Ender and Daddy Yankee, and was produced by Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo.[2]

It is a reggaeton-pop song composed in common time with lyrics about having a sexual relationship, performed in a smooth and romantic way. Commercially, the song topped the charts of 45 countries and reached the top 10 of 9 others, making it both Fonsi and Daddy Yankee's most successful single to date. It became the first song primarily in Spanish to top the Billboard Hot 100 since "Macarena" (Bayside Boys Mix) in 1996. The official video for "Despacito" on YouTube received its one billionth view on April 20, 2017 after 97 days, becoming the second-fastest video on the site to reach the milestone behind Adele's "Hello".[3] It received its two billionth view on June 16 after 154 days, making it the fastest video on the site to reach the milestone. With its 3.3 million certified sales plus track-equivalent streams, "Despacito" is one of the best-selling Latin singles in the United States.

Several remix versions were released following the single's success. On March 17, 2017, both a solo pop version and a salsa version featuring Puerto Rican musician Victor Manuelle were released. On April 17, 2017, a remix version featuring Canadian singer Justin Bieber was released; this version helped to improve the song's chart performance in numerous countries, particularly in the English-speaking world. On May 5, 2017, both an electronic version produced by American trio Major Lazer and Colombian DJ MOSKA and an urban version produced by Sky were released. In July, "Despacito" became the world's most streamed song of all time with 4.6 billion streams[4], and on August 4, 2017, it also became the most viewed video on YouTube.

Background

Panamanian singer and songwriter Erika Ender (pictured) co-wrote "Despacito" with Fonsi.

After two years without releasing new music,[5] Luis Fonsi wanted to create "a fun track that had that Latin feel with a melody that I feel very comfortable singing and that will make people just dance".[6] According to Erika Ender, the lyrics were born in late 2015 in Fonsi's house after he expressed his desire to record a "swinging song" for his new album.[7] Fonsi showed the chorus he had written to Ender, his friend and winner of a 2016 Latin Grammy Award as songwriter,[8] and they then co-wrote the rest of the song.[6]

Fonsi originally composed "Despacito" as a cumbia and pop song with lyrics written as a ballad, but began to consider giving it an "urban injection" and contacted reggaeton artist Daddy Yankee, who agreed to collaborate on the song after Fonsi played him the demo.[6] Prior to collaborating on "Despacito", Fonsi and Daddy Yankee had worked together on "Una Oportunidad", released digitally in 2010.[9] Daddy Yankee wrote his verse and the post-chorus or hook.[10][11] They recorded the song in Miami in 2016.[12] The song was produced by Mauricio Rengifo and Andrés Torres;[13] the latter had previously worked with David Bisbal and Ricky Martin.[14] Rengifo is best known as El Dandee from the Colombian pop duo Cali & El Dandee.[15]

In an interview with Billboard magazine in March 2017, Fonsi revealed that he originally focused on other songs of his album after making the demo of "Despacito".[16] After showing the track to his producers, they and Fonsi decided to focus on "Despacito" and leave the other works aside.[16] He stated that both Daddy Yankee and he were surprised after hearing the final song because it sounded "powerful, fresh and different".[16] Luis Fonsi said that he does not consider it a reggaeton song but feels that "it does have a reggaeton energy and an subtle urban beat".[6] He also affirmed that Daddy Yankee's work was a plus to the song because "it needed that explosion that only he can bring to the table."[6]

Fonsi stated that he made "Despacito" a danceable song because "Latinos are known for being happy people" and that he feels the need of happy music.[17] He added that the "urban feel" in the song's rhythm is the type that "[us Latinos] breath in and out" and that it is "a synonym of party".[17] According to him, "Despacito" is a very melodic song that can adapt well to many other music genres.[17] In an interview with Billboard magazine in April 2017, Erika Ender stated that the track "made a special connection" and that the collaboration with Daddy Yankee was "a great idea".[7] She also said that because of the sensual nature of the song, they "needed to be responsible with a good lyric" and that her approach to writing for Fonsi was "to take care of how to say things with a good taste".[7] During the 2017 Billboard Latin Music Conference, American-Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Nicky Jam revealed that the original version of "Despacito" featured him instead of Daddy Yankee.[18][19][20]

Composition

"Despacito" is a reggaeton-pop song[21] composed in common time (4
4
time) and written in the key of B minor with a tempo of 89 beats per minute and a common chord progression of Bm—G—D—A.[22] Its implicit lyrics are about having a sexual relationship in a smooth and romantic way, making heavy use of allegories.[23] Some of the song's sexual allegories are "I want to see your hair dancing", "Let me surpass your danger zones / Until I provoke your screams", "I want to undress you with kisses / Sign your labyrinth's walls" and "We start slowly, then wildly".[24][25] However, Luis Fonsi expressed that some lines are free for interpretation.[26][27]

Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo produced "Despacito" using Pro Tools and its final mix consisted of 47 tracks.[28] The song begins with a Puerto Rican cuatro played by Christian Nieves, which is accompanied by an acoustic guitar when Luis Fonsi starts performing.[28] Nieves plays salsa-influenced melodies during the chorus and the hook, which contains vocal samples and "old school pop" effects based on American producer Dr. Luke.[28] Percussion instruments guache and güira were synchronized with a hi hat in order to highlight the track's cumbia influences.[28] The song uses the side-chaining production technique in order to make the chorus "more prominent", silencing the music as the kick drum hits.[29] It also makes heavy use of text painting when the music is slowed down as the word "despacito" (slowly) is performed at the beginning of every chorus.[29] Its percussion consists of guache, cowbell, timbales, güira, and sequenced drum patterns.[28]

Release and reception

"Despacito" was made available for digital download on January 13, 2017 by Universal Music Latin.[30] It was released physically on April 30, 2017 in Europe as a 2-track single including the original and pop version.[31] Some music publications believed the single's success was influenced by a trend of combining Latin pop and urban music after the release of hit singles by Nicky Jam, Thalia, Enrique Iglesias, Carlos Vives, Ricky Martin and Shakira.[32] Fonsi considered the trend to be "the new pop",[5] and Ender said of it, "everyone is making this type of fusions".[7]

The song was well received from music critics. Doris Irizarry of AXS praised the fusion between "Latin sensual rhythms" and urban music, describing it as "masterful".[33] Sebastian Wernke-Schmiesing of Dance-Charts electronic journal stated that "a simple 4/4 time, Spanish guitar sounds, a crisp bass, and the excellent vocals by Luis Fonsi and [Daddy Yankee] were enough to get a hit single from the start".[34] He added that "'Despacito' has the magic it takes to reach the world" and that "works both on the dancefloors and on the radio".[34] Buddy Iahn of The Music Universe described it as an "infectious tune" and expressed that its music video became very popular because it is "great music performed by two of the biggest stars in the Latin music business".[35] Diana Marti of E! News said that "it is almost impossible not to dance to [it]".[36] Caroline Soriano of Enstars magazine described the song's beat as "quite sexy and catchy" and defined the lyrics as "captivating".[37] Brittany Spanos of Rolling Stone magazine described it as alluring, sexy and catchy.[12] Leila Cobo of Billboard expressed that "Despacito" is "a great pop song", highlighting the "undeniable immediate catchiness" of the pre-chorus and the chorus.[38]

Robert Joffred of Medium stated in his review that the song has "something [very] interesting happening" and that it can be classified as a Latin-American song because of its composition and characteristics.[29] He highlighted the use of a steel-string guitar to play flamenco-style melodies instead of a nylon-string guitar, on which flamenco is usually played, representing "a modern take on a historical musical style".[29] Joffred also stated that what makes "Despacito" a "great song" is that it "throws decades of tradition to the wind in a very subtle way" because of the presence of "swung rhythms" when the word "despacito" is sung at the beginning of the chorus.[29] He referred to the text painting as "pretty genius".[29] Petra Rivera-Rideau, author of Remixing Reggaetón: The Cultural Politics of Race in Puerto Rico (2015), said that she "really likes" the song and that it is "super catchy".[39] She also stated that "what's great about 'Despacito' is that it shows reggaeton never really went away" and that the song's success "makes [her] really excited to see what’s going to happen next".[39]

Spanish record producer Nahúm García stated that "the way the rhythm breaks before the chorus is genius", referring to the first time Luis Fonsi performs the word "despacito".[40] He explained that "the brain realizes that there has been a rare breakdown and it catches its eye",[40] and claimed that this "trick" in particular is not very common "and much less in pop music".[40] García concluded stating that the song "is very well made".[40] James Kellaris, composer and professor at the University of Cincinnati's business school,[41] expressed that "'Despacito' contains earworm elements" for being "cheerful, simple, repetitive and having a sticky rhythm".[40]

Accolades

"Despacito" received Premios Juventud for Perfect Combination and Best Song for Singing at the 14th Premios Juventud.[42] The remix version featuring Justin Bieber has three pending nominations for the 19th Teen Choice Awards.[43][44] The original version has also a pending nomination for the 6th Premios Tu Mundo.[45]

Song



On April 17, 2017 a remix version featuring vocals by Canadian singer Justin Bieber was released, who sang in Spanish for the first time in his career.[99][100] The remix was released by Universal Music Latin, Republic Records, Def Jam Recordings, RBMG and School Boy Records.[54][101] The song maintained the original rhythms and Luis Fonsi translated some lines to English, singing a verse in Spanglish, while Daddy Yankee's verses were kept from the original version.[99] It was the first collaboration between Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee with Bieber. The remix's official audio video garnered 20 million views on YouTube on its first 24 hours, making it the highest debut for a music-related video in 2017 as of April.[102]

Justin Bieber and American songwriters Jason Boyd and Marty James co-wrote the version.[54] Colombian musician Juan Felipe Samper was hired to help him sing in Spanish.[103][104] According to Fonsi, Bieber wanted to record the remix version after seeing how people reacted to "Despacito" in a Colombian club.[105][106] The song was recorded in Bogotá, Colombia on April 13, 2017, four days before its release.[20] Justin Bieber was not able to sing the song during live performances,[107] and was caught replacing portions of the lyrics with the word "blah" during one performance, in a much publicized incident.[108] Fonsi has defended him for not knowing the lyrics, saying he has to be given "a little bit of a pass" because Spanish is not Bieber's main language.[109]

Bieber's collaboration helped the song to reach number one of the US Billboard Hot 100, the first for a primarily Spanish-language song since "Macarena" by Los del Río in 1996.[55][3] The remix alone topped the charts of Finland, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Poland and Sweden, and reached the top ten in Mexico and Spain. It was certified 2× platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI)[110] and the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA),[111] and platinum by the Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ)[112] and the Pro-Música Brasil (PMB).[74] The song also received a gold certification by the Bundesverband Musikindustrie (BVMI).[113]

Hilton Dresden of Out magazine described it as "unexpected and delightful" and that "Justin Bieber singing in Spanish is a highly sexual experience", defining the results of the collaboration as legendary.[114] Caroline Soriano of Ernstars magazine stated that Bieber's voice "sounds appealing with the song", whose remix version make it sound "a little bit better".[37] Latina's Daniela Galvez described Bieber singing in Spanish as "amazing".[115]

Other remixes

The first two official remixes for "Despacito" were released on March 17, 2017: a solo pop version by Fonsi and a salsa version featuring vocals by Puerto Rican musician Victor Manuelle.[116] On May 5, 2017, two other remixes were released: an electronic version produced by American trio Major Lazer and Colombian DJ MOSKA and an urban version remixed by Colombian producer Sky.[117] A Portuguese-language version featuring Brazilian singer Israel Novaes and without Daddy Yankee was released on July 14, 2017.[118] This version was written by Erika Ender.[119]

In an interview with Billboard magazine in March 2017, Luis Fonsi stated that there are several remixes for "Despacito", including an urban and a club version, mentioning that "there are some great DJs who have shown interest".[17] He also expressed his desire to perform an acoustic version.[17] In June 2017, English musician Ed Sheeran revealed that he wanted to record a remix version of "Despacito" but Justin Bieber "advantaged him".[120][121] He also stated that he likes reggaeton music, saying that it has a "good rhythm" and that "everyone enjoys it".[121] Dominican musician Antony Santos released a merengue version featuring American rapper Mark B on June 26, 2017.[122] Croatian-based duo 2Cellos, composed by musicians Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser, released a classical crossover version on July 19, 2017.[123][124]

The song has also been remixed, with altered lyrics, for political purposes. It has been used in Argentina by Florencio Randazzo (from the Justicialist Party), Evert Van Tooren (from Cambiemos) and Agustín Rossi (from the Citizen's Unity Party) for their respective TV advertisements for the 2017 midterm elections.[125] Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro used it to call for voting in the controversial Constitutional Assembly election.[126] Luis Fonsi, Daddy Yankee and Erika Ender showed their displeasure with the unauthorized use of the song for political purposes in Venezuela, criticizing Maduro's government and describing the use of the song as "propaganda".[127][128][129] Fonsi said that he was never consulted or have he authorized the use of the song for political ends, "less so in the context of the deplorable situation affecting a country that I love so much as Venezuela".[130] He also stated that his music is "for all of those that want to listen to it and enjoy it, not to use it as propaganda that tries to manipulate the will of the people that are crying out for their freedom and a better future".[130] Despite the criticism by the artists, President Maduro continued to use the remix promoting the election, using it during a cadena.[131]
