I wasn’t going to say anything but THIS.

I like these two songs and I am excited for this new music. However, those of you obsessed with charts need to lower your expectations. I do not think these two songs will be groundbreaking. In MY opinion.

They sound dated. The beats and production sound dated and the lyrics are not good. Those of you saying these will smash and the lyrics sound like standard reggaeton lyrics do not listen to reggaeton of today. Yes there’s a lot of stupid shit out there that’s just meant to have you shaking your ass at the club. But even the stupid shit is lyrically written and structured better. These lyrics sound like the songs were written in English and Xtina took them to Google Translate and sang what the website said.

I always wish her the best and if I’m wrong and she smashes, by all means drag me. But I just don’t see it with these two songs. But again, I’m excited and hope there’s deeper material on this EP.

I agree. We have to let go of this idea that’s she’s always on the verge of a major career resurgence. I am confident at some point she will reignite the charts when we least expect it. But probably not right now.

Like @Kitana pointed out, Xtina is “off the grid” for the majority. I don’t see that changing anytime soon. We should enjoy the music!!!

The much buzzed about show which featured international performances made Univision the most-social television network – broadcast and cable – receiving more total interactions than the remaining top five networks combined in ESPN, The CW, ABC and FOX, and is the most-social Spanish-language telecast year-to-date."

We need all the promo... Especially because I have never heard of these artists she's collaborating with...(besides the rumored collabs with Becky G and Shakira)

She has no one to blame but herself. It would’ve been a different thing if she actually had been trying all these years but she hasn’t. She literally stopped promoting her music after B2B and has just done the bare minimum.

One of the reasons why Beyonce, P!nk, and JT (from that generation) are still relevant is because they continuously put in the work.

But let’s hope she has been re-inspired to promote her music again.

You guys act as if those three were the biggest stars ever.

Neither Yonks, Pink, or JT are that big outside of the US.

The last time I ever heard JT outside of this forum was when he did the Happy ripoff.

Pink was kind of popular when she copied Beautiful.

Yonks hasn't been popular since her Single Ladies days.

EDIT: I honestly would have forgotten about Yonks or Pink's existence if it weren't for this forum. Sorry not sorry. They are not that important in the musical landscape outside of the US.

You’re full of shit if you think Beyoncé isn’t a big star . Lmao hating ass . You don’t have to like her to know that.

Beyonce is the best example here and is just an anomaly of an artist. I’d rather never hear from Christina again than have the equivalent of what JT and P!nk have released over the last 10 years.

No one said anything about their music but ok.

Part of the reason they are consistent is that they are risk-averse. Justin has worked with the same collaborators to diminishing creative returns for his entire solo career. P!nk makes mediocre mom rock and essentially does the same thing every 1.5 years. I’m not saying Christina has only released great albums, but every album is a nee undertaking and creative process for her. She could have gone on autopilot for a decade, but I think Lotus is an example of her just releasing for the sake of releasing…and that was not good.

Just ignore them.

Apparently we are the crazy ones for being happy for her.

Yet they are the same people who haven't stopped complaining for years...

Adele changed her social media’s photos and posted a video already.

The difference is Adele is not experiencing a leak and is ready to release. Why get mad at Christina for not teasing something before she’s ready to release it. She’s had so many articles mentioning new Spanish music and she’s revealing more bit by bit.

I know I know I’m not making sense… I’m just mad we haven’t got anything else besides the website message, but this is how I typically get before her new releases lol don’t mind me

I agree with this. Like I already said, the songs are just ok. The choruses are weak. There’s no catchy hook.

I guess I expected a song like Chantaje, No Me Acuerdo, El Anillo, or even Mayores. Something with a catchy hook. Oh well.

99% of reggaeton is as deep as the lyrics of Friday by Rebecca Black. So let's not overdramatize this.

There’s actually a lot of reggaeton out there with deep lyrics. Some of you don’t know wtf you’re talking about and are basing your knowledge on Latin music on a song you’ve heard here and there. Santo sounds like it would’ve been a hit in 2019. It’s 2021 and the sound of reggaeton has shifted.

But like I said, I’m here for Queen. I’m going to support, stream and buy regardless. I just hope there’s better material. All of you with the thumbs down reacts can kiss my ass. I said what the fuck I said. Stay mad. Being an Xtina stan doesn’t mean I have to blindly love everything she releases.
