Tangana (real name: Antón Álvarez Alfaro) is using his quarantine time to reflect and write new music.The Spanish rapper, who dropped his new single “Nunca Estoy” today (April 24), has curated a playlist for Billboard with a mix of hip-hop, R&B, Latin urban, and Brazilian funk tunes that are helping him get by in these trying times.“I am used to living away from the people I love,” he tells Billboard.

The fans have spoken, and they picked Thalia as their dream Latin quarantine buddy. Two weeks ago, Billboard asked fans to vote for the ideal Latin artist that they would like to spend quarantine with, highlighting 20 celebs including Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Anitta and Shakira, to name a few.Thalia’s beloved fans ultimately crowned their Mexican queen as the Latin quarantine buddy winner with 53.62 percent of the votes.

J Balvin’s “Morado” lands atop the Latin Airplay chart (dated April 25), climbing 4-1 in its 13th week. The second single from Colores also becomes the set’s second track to rule the survey, following “Blanco” (one-week reign, March 21-dated list).“It makes me happy to know that the fans love ‘Morado,’ especially because it’s a sound that is very J Balvin,” the Colombian superstar tells Billboard.
