Primera musa [A] (Spanish for First muse) is the first studio album by Puerto Rican rapper Omar Courtz. [3] It was released through Rimas Entertainment on September 20, 2024. [4]
The album spawned six singles including, "Una noti", "Luces de colores" and "Enserio con ese q" a collaboration with rapper Anuel AA.
A day prior to the album's release, Courtz released "Goddess" as the first single. "Qué vas a hacer hoy?" was a collaboration with fellow Puerto Rican singer De La Rose alongside the album and gained widespread attention. "Qué vas a hacer hoy?" became a trend in Spanish-language TikTok and became the singer's first commercial breakthrough. In Spain, the single reached the second spot in the PROMUSICAE Top 100 Canciones chart. [5]
Following the commercial success of "Qué vas a hacer hoy?", Omar Courtz's previous singles rose to attention charting in Spain, Argentina and more countries across Latin America.
It features appearances from De la Rose, Dei V, Rauw Alejandro, Luar la L and Bryant Myers.
According to Rolling Stone en español magazine, Omar Courtz wanted Primera musa to mean a rendition to Rimas' genres style and mix of genres and its influence in the Hispanic music sphere. [6]
Many Primera musa’s tracks are often written with spaced letters with either all caps or all lowercase.
When Omar Courtz was asked about the what his debut album was about, he replied
”Primera musa (as in First muse) can mean many things” …”I like to leave people to interpret it they way they feel, since it can be something you lived like an experience to a woman”. “Primera musa puede ser muchas cosas”, explica. “Yo lo dejo a la gente que ellos lo cojan como ellos quieran. Puede ser algo que viviste, una experiencia, o puede ser una mujer”
— Courtz when asked about the concept of the album. [7]
He also cited his inspiration came from each big latin artist’s first studio album from Bad Bunny's X 100pre (2018) to Myke Towers's El final del principio (2016) adding «I want to listen to that first “delivery” artist». [8]
