What happens when musical geniuses from opposite sides come together? A brilliant, reggae-infused revamp of a classic number. Mexican rock group Maná and reggaetón veteran Nicky Jam have joined together in a reggae-rock jam titled, “De Pies a Cabeza” (“From Head to Toe”). The newly-released cut is a remake of the legendary rock group’s 1992 song from their second studio album, ¿Dónde Jugarán los Niños?, considered to be the best selling Spanish-language rock album of all time.
While some might think a collaboration from two opposite ends of the Latinx spectrum is strange, it falls in place seamlessly in “De Pies a Cabeza,” which immediately catapults listeners to the sandy beaches and sun-kissed weather of the Caribbean. The music video to Maná and Nicky Jam’s new and improved “De Pies a Cabeza”—already 26 on the Billboard chart for Hot Latin Songs—features both artists singing and dancing, while playing the song live.
