Global superstar and 2-time Latin GRAMMY® Award-winning, 4-time GRAMMY®-nominated Rauw Alejandro is preparing for the release of his sixth studio album, "Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0," introducing it with his newest single, an unstoppable bop that burns just as hot as lava in Hawaii, "GuabanSexxx." Both a track and a cultural event in one, this is equal parts sensual stomp, spiritual cry, and revolution.
Inspired by Guabancex, the Taíno goddess of storms and chaos, "GuabanSexxx" isn't shy about embracing contradiction. The song's heartbeat is a blend of house, Bomba, and Plena music, mixing ancestral rhythms with contemporary, fiery Trap and Latin Hip-Hop sounds. It's a bold mixture that demonstrates that Rauw is rewriting the script for what Latin music can be. The pulsating production reflects the tension between chaos and beauty as Rauw's vocal delivery flits effortlessly from intensity to seduction, sweeping you into a storm of sound that sounds both primordial and future-facing.
Fueling the anticipation, Rauw teased the single with an unexpected performance at Bad Bunny's Puerto Rican residency. Cloaked in a symbolic umbrella and styled in custom pieces by Herman Nadal and Willy Chavarria, his presence was an assertion. Every detail, from the outfit to the aura, is rooted in Guabancex mythology and the new era he's about to reveal with "Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0." And "GuabanSexxx" is Rauw embracing heritage, tapping into divine chaos, and reconceptualizing his soundscape on his own terms. For fans, this release is the thunder before the storm. And if this cut is any indication, "Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0" will be nothing short of seismic.
