Fans Choose Wampi & Leoni Torres’ ‘La Última’ as Their Favorite New Latin Music of the Week

Wampi and Leoni Torres’ collaboration in “La Última” has topped Billboard’s latest new Latin music poll, published on Friday (June 27).

In support of the weekly New Music Latin roundup and playlist, curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors, music fans voted for the Cuban artists as their favorite music release of the week.

“La Última” generated more than 45% of the vote, beating out other new releases last week including Camilo’s “Maldito ChatGPT,” Myke Towers’ “Expectativas,” and Gerardo Ortiz’s comeback track “Échame el Grito.” Anuel AA’s “Little Demon” came in second place with more than 43% of the vote.

Wampi, Cuba’s breakout star from the booming Reparto genre, and Torres, the country’s prolific singer/songwriter, collided in a jazzy heartfelt love ballad about two lovebirds meeting at the wrong time. “Many relationships don’t work out because a couple meets before the time is right. [This song] explores that phenomenon and there’s nobody better to tell that story with than Leoni […] I grew up listening to Leoni and he’s influenced my music greatly; especially my songwriting and delivery on slow songs,” Wampi, who penned and produced the jazzy tune, said in a press statement.

“La Última” is part of Wampi’s forthcoming album, El Rey de la Habana — his debut studio set under Virgin Music Latin. See the results of the latest poll below, which also included new songs by Jasiel Nuñez, Duki, and more.

Editor’s Note: The weekly New Music Latin poll results are posted if the poll generates over 1,000 votes.
