Myke Towers, “Almas Gemelas” (Warner Music Latina/Warner Records/One World International)
On the heels of his third studio album,
Lyke Mike, where he blessed fans with 100 percent of his hip-hop essence, Myke Towers returns with a more commercial sound on his new single Almas Gemelas. Helmed by Colombian hitmaker Ovy on the Drums, the track is a hypnotic reggaeton song with futuristic beats that can easily be dedicated to your twin soul. Baby you and I are the same/ We look like twin souls/ We re rivals in bed/ We kiss as in the novelas/ She invades my territory/ It s not that she does it, it s how/ And if earthly demons existed/ You re an angel that can t fly, says the infectious chorus. Towers officially debuted his new single at the 2021 Premios Juventud. It s such a pleasure working

Song You Need to Know: Myke Towers, Pin Pin
Salsa meets trap on a highlight from Puerto Rican rapper s Lyke Mike album

Lyke Mike, is 65 minutes of dogged, hard-nosed trap full of blaring bass that’s sure to wake up the neighbors, clenched, claustrophobic drums, and drubbing raps.
But “Pin Pin,” which comes early in the 23-song set, offers a welcome moment of levity: Towers builds the track around a cheery salsa sample, a brassy snippet borrowed from Tommy Olivencia’s “Periquito Pin-Pin.” This salsa/hip-hop hybrid has proved effective in the past, from Meshell Ndegeocello’s “Hot Night” to Common’s “Stolen Moments – Part III” to C. Tangana’s “Mala Mujer.” Towers’ take on the sound is fleet-footed but thunderous, like tap-dancing with cinderblocks. The horns surge upward in a joyous, irrepressible loop, while the hard-bitten drums serve to tether everything to the ground.
