Residente explains how feminist resistance and Bad Bunny’s brain waves inspired new song “Bellacoso”
,” then “Latinoamerica” in 2010. “Back in the day, reggaeton, like rock, like any genre — has had its ups and downs,” he explains. “Fourteen years ago, reggaeton was super hot. I didn’t want to use it to make myself famous.”
Although the rapper has been critical of urbano music’s commercial turn over the years, his friendship with known chart-topper Bad Bunny has him singing a different tune. “I don’t rap because I want to be famous or be part of the Top 20,” he says. “I just wanna do something creative and fun… And to collaborate with someone like Benito is a fun experiment. We’re friends, we have good chemistry and get along super well.
When he describes “Bellacoso” as an experiment, though, he doesn’t simply mean an artistic one: Residente first conducted an electroencephalogram test on Bad Bunny’s brain — then used his brain waves to inspire the track. Much like the mind of Bad Bunny, says Residente, “this song is all about tempo and rhythm.”
“The brain frequencies, you change them into numbers,” he says.” Then you can change those numbers into sounds, rhythms and patterns.” Residente’s new single is just the first of many EEG-incorporating tracks, all of which will appear on his upcoming solo album, yet untitled, due in October 2019. “I am focusing on the frequencies that connect us as humans to then develop a sound, lyrics, and concept,” he says, “[and] will present some twists on how we connect with the universe in general.”
