From career milestones to new music releases to major announcements and those little important moments, Billboard editors highlight uplifting moments in Latin music. Here’s what happened in the Latin music world this week.
Girls’ Night Out
It was a star-studded week in Miami, and Becky G did not hesitate to gather her girls for a night out in town. In a surprising reel using Bad Bunny’s “Nuevayol” sound, the Mexican-American singer is seen hanging out on a yacht with 11 of her celebrity friends. Each of the beautiful ladies, including Jessica Alba, Gloria Estefan, Emily Estefan, Eva Longoria, and Becky, have their moment to shine and show off their best dance moves to the trendy dembow-salsa tune. The ladies were celebrating Longoria’s 50th birthday, where Marc Anthony was also one of the guests. “Grateful to have begun celebrating my birthday (as it will be a month long). I felt so loved! […] Ready for this new decade,” the actress said on her Instagram. Watch the fun clip below.

The Bromance That Keeps on Giving
On other birthday news, Nicky Jam celebrated his 44th birthday on March 17, and in honor, his good friend J Balvin took fans down memory lane. In a video recap, Balvin collected the best highlights from their bromance throughout the years: “mi real y yo” (my real one and I), he subtitled the clip. The video captures more than 10 years of friendship between the two reggaetón artists, including memorable pranks, viral moments, and their mano a mano panel at 2017 Billboard Latin Music Week. “Happy birthday, Nicky Jam, for more moments like these,” Balvin captioned the post. Additionally, the Colombian and Puerto Rican artists have collaborated on many bangers including “X,” “Superhéroe,” “Travesuras (Remix),” and “Poblado (Remix),” to name a few.

The She Wolf Pack
In a sweet fan moment, Kunno could not contain the moment he shared with Shakira during one of her concerts in Mexico this week. “Her success has had many roads and Shakira invited me to walk with her at her first concert in Mexico City,” the Mexican influencer expressed on his social media accounts. In the clip, Kunno is seen dressed in a metallic jumpsuit and accompanying the Colombian sensation during a part of her show where she’s walking through the crowd with her “she wolf” pack. “Dreams definitely come true and among wolves we stay in a pack,” he added, thanking Sony Music México and Ocesa for making this opportunity possible. Watch the journey below.

The Future of Music
This week, Rolling Stone revealed its annual The Future 25 list featuring two Latin names: breakthrough Música Mexicana star Ivan Cornejo and Puerto Rican newcomers Chuwi. From around the world and across all genres, the artists were selected by the RS staff, “spotlighting the next generation of artists shaping the sounds of tomorrow. Cornejo—who was Billboard’s Genre Now cover last January—got his own Future of Music cover and performed as headliner at Rolling Stone’s Future of Music showcase at SXSW earlier this month. “Completely honored to be the face of Rolling Stone representing música mexicana,” he shared on social media.
