Yandel's previous studio albums, De Líder a Leyenda and Dangerous , were commercially successful in the US Latin market, both topping the US Top Latin Albums chart and eventually selling more than 90,000 album-equivalent units combined. [2] [3] [4] The lead single of Dangerous, "Encantadora", received Latin Grammy Awards for Best Urban Song and Best Urban Fusion/Performance at the 17th Annual Latin Grammy Awards. [5] In March 2016, he became the first Puerto Rican act to sign with American rapper Jay-Z's record label Roc Nation. [6] He was also honored by the Latin Songwriters Hall of Fame on October 13, 2016, for having reached "outstanding achievements" and having "contributed to the development of the Latin music". [7]

In May 2017, Yandel confirmed guest features for Update including Puerto Rican singer Farruko and French disc jockey David Guetta, yet they were not part of the final track listing. [8] His main focus on the album was reggaeton music, claiming that "the streets need the real reggaeton". [9] He also stated that the album "is full of rhythms that have been part of [his] DNA as a music creator". [10] He focused more on collaborations instead of solo tracks, unlike De Líder a Leyenda and Dangerous. [11] Wisin and Yandel, in hiatus as duo since 2013, recorded four songs together for their upcoming respective solo studio albums between September 2016 and May 2017. [12] [13] [14]

The album's title came up after Yandel noticed that various applications on his mobile phone needed an update. [4] [15] He started thinking about his trajectory and decided to give himself a "musical update", subsequently selecting Update as the title of the record. [15] Musically, Yandel experimented with Latin trap music, a subgenre of hip hop music that became popular in Latin America during the mid-2010s, for the album. [4] [16] [17] Both Tainy and Jumbo stated that their objective on the album was to make "something refreshing" and to "look for different things and sounds", while maintaining Yandel's essence. [18] [19] Haze opined that Update represents "the future of music". [20]

Composition

The track "Como Antes" was the first song by Wisin & Yandel (pictured) in five years. Wisin & Yandel.jpg
The track "Como Antes" was the first song by Wisin & Yandel (pictured) in five years.

The album's lyrics explore themes ranging from romance, sex, and dance, which are recurring themes in the singer's repertoire. The first track "Como Antes" ("Like Before") features Puerto Rican rapper and Yandel's longtime duo companion Wisin, being their first release as duo after five years. [4] Yandel expressed that it is "a very danceable reggaeton song with an energy just like old times". [21] The concept of the song was "to remember the music that Wisin & Yandel used to make before" but adding "a touch of 2017 by giving an update to that type of music". [22] The lyrics mention various songs by Wisin & Yandel, including "En La Disco Bailoteo", "Dembow", "Saoco", "Mírala Bien", "Pam Pam", "Pegao", "La Pared", and "Ahora Es". [23] "No Pare" ("Don't Stop") is a reggaeton song about a romantic encounter. [24] [25] "Llégale" is a "reggaeton from the roots" that features Puerto Rican duo Zion & Lennox and whose lyrics describe a secret relationship. [26] [27] The fourth track "Mi Religión" ("My Religion") is a romantic reggaeton song about a woman becoming a metaphoric religion for a man who is obsessed with her. [28] Yandel stated that it is "a musical tribute to women and a celebration of the vital impact they have on our lives". [29]

"Solo Mía" ("Only Mine") is a romantic and danceable reggaeton track that features Colombian singer Maluma. [30] Yandel stated that he wanted "a Colombian sazón" and that the song "is dedicated to all Latin girls". [30] "Bésame" ("Kiss Me") is an "americanized reggaeton" in which Yandel highlights the "cleanliness" of the snares and the bass. [31] The lyrics are about a casual romantic encounter between two people that met in a nightclub. [32] "Si Se Da" ("If It Happens") is an "energetic" reggaeton track that features Puerto Rican duo Plan B and in which Yandel wanted to "bring the nightclub". [33] The lyrics describe a woman at a nightclub and the actions of a man who desires her. [34] "No Quiero Amores" ("I Don't Want Loves") features Puerto Rican singer Ozuna and is a song about a disillusioned man who does not want to be back with the woman who betrayed him. [35] Yandel invited Ozuna to work on the track because of their "sticky voices" that "don't fail in the choruses". [36]

"Aprovéchame" ("Take Advantage of Me") musically combines reggaeton music with American and European sounds and its lyrics are about casual sex. [37] [38] [39] Yandel stated that it "is the song that gives an update to the album". [38] "Dónde Estás" ("Where Are You") features Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi and is a mixture of ballad and R&B, a type of music in which Yandel wanted to venture because of Fonsi's voice and style. [40] The song is about a man who feels empty for not having the woman he loves, despite being rich and having a lot of friends. [41] Nayeli Rivera of Monitor Latino described the track as "a fusion of urban sounds with light touches of pop and electronica". [42] "Todo Lo Que Quiero" ("All I Want") is another "americanized reggaeton" that features Mexican-American singer and songwriter Becky G, who was invited following Yandel's lack of collaborations with female acts throughout his career. [43] [44] The lyrics describe a man who wants to confess his love to a woman. [45] "Cuando Se Da" ("When It Is Given") is a danceable reggaeton song that tells the story of a young man who is experimenting with love and that has to decide between the two simultaneous relationships he is having. [46] [47] The final track, "Explícale" ("Explain To Him") is a Latin trap song that features Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny. Yandel wanted to "bring something different" and decided to record a trap song because of its contemporary popularity in Latin America. [48]
