Nicky Jam, Bad Bunny, and Arcangel join forces for a satisfying, steamy new Latin slow jam, “Satisfacción.” This one’s perfect for ‘the bedroom.’

When Latin superstars come together, it’s a truly awesome experience.  Nick Jam, Bad Bunny, and Arcangel on one track together? Epic. Indeed, “Satisfacción’,” which translates to “Satisfaction” in English, is a satisfying listening.  Prepare to get ‘hot and bothered’ because that’s the effect this record, sung exclusively in Spanish, will have on you.  You don’t even need to translate, because the ‘satisfaction’ is exactly what you think it is – sex.

“Satisfacción” is moody sounding at the onset.  It’s set in a minor key with an incredibly slow tempo.  Yes, this exemplifies the ‘slow-jam,’ anchored by a hard-hitting beat.  The thing is, if you didn’t know this was a Latin-pop tune, you’d assume it’s an urban contemporary, trap-soul joint. The intro is performed by Nicky Jam, who also goes on to perform the chorus.  His tone is awesome – pure, sexy, and perfectly suited for what’s about to go down. Bad Bunny arrives for the first verse. Like his boy Nicky Jam, the modus operandi is sex.  He does it well, with agile pop-rap styled vocals. Arcángel is not to be left out, providing fine contrast to boy Nicky Jam and Bad Bunny on his sexual second verse. Nicky returns for the bridge, while all three have parts on the outro.

Final Thoughts 

To reiterate an earlier assertion, basically, think of “Satisfacción” as a modern, American R&B record embracing those ‘trap soul’ vibes.  Really, the only difference is Spanish versus English.  If you’re not a frequent Latin music listener, the language barrier shouldn’t bother you.  Why? Besides the production and sound, the one thing that’s universal that everybody can get behind is sex. Just keeping it 100…
