Thalia & Pabllo Vittar Have a ‘Hot’ Collaboration Coming and Fans Are Losing it

Thalia and Pabllo Vittar have officially announced their first-ever collaboration and the internet is losing it.

The Mexican pop singer and Brazilian drag superstar shared a photo of the two posing together in an alley setting with purple lighting and fully geared in white lingerie. Without revealing much information, both artists captioned their pics with a set of fire emojis, hinting that their forthcoming track is going to be hot.

In true Thalia and Pabllo fashion, It’s also safe to say that the collab will most probably be fierce, unapologetic and empowering. On Instagram stories, Pabllo expressed that working with Thalia was an incredible experience because she’s a wonderful woman.

Gloria Trevi and Alejandra Guzman perform during the 'VERSUS World Tour" at the Pepsi Center on March 23, 2018 in Denver, Colo.

Billboard Latin Artist On The Rise: Puerto Rican Rapper Miky Woodz

This week, Miguel Angel Rivera Rodríguez — better known as Miky Woodz — joins the group of urban singers who were established within the genre in 2019 and slowly started to build their own path on Billboard charts.

Looking at his history, Woodz has three Top 10 on the Latin Rhythm Albums chart with The OGClimate Change (with Bryant Myers) and The OG Week, sets that also entered the Top Latin Albums chart and peaked at No. 6, 20 and 17, respectively.

Born in Carolina, Puerto Rico, Woodz began his career in the reggaeton and Latin trap in the mid-2010s by collaborating with artists such as Farruko, Benny Benni, and Juhn. “I’m a basketball player and I always listened to urban songs to practice,” Woodz tells Billboard. “When I moved to the United States to study I discovered more about music and started writing songs.”

Written by the Spanish songwriter Vicky Gastelo, “No Pienso” is a ballad about a relationship that has failed and they don’t want to get back together. In the video, a male couple interprets through dance the powerful feeling that is reflected in the song through Nazario’s voice.
