Previous story:
Will Smith has just released the first song in a about decade and it’s a remix of Colombian band Bomba Estereo’s song ‘Fiesta’.
The collaboration marks the rapper/actor’s return to music since his 2005 album Lost and Found. Bomba Estereo is known for its blend of Latin, tropical and electro sounds with Pop and Hip-Hop whom Will discovered during a recent trip to Colombia. He then asked the group to collaborate and the result was a remix of their song ‘Fiesta’. Will raps in both English and Spanish on the track.
Band founder and multi-instrumentalist Simon Mejia said in a statement:
“When I was told that Will Smith wanted to collaborate on a remix with Bomba, I couldn’t believe it. This opportunity to work with Will was beyond anything we have dreamed of. … It’s just magic.”
