R3HAB, Luis Fonsi, and Sean Paul – “Pues” music video
‘Pues’ brings to mind dancing through warm summer nights in tropical locales with beautiful strangers. Part dance melody, part Latin-infused honey, the song has all the makings of being a summertime anthem for fans of both genres. Also, “Pues” is the catchiest of songs, one soaked with abundant sunshine, pulling listeners close and into a never-ending dance. Furthermore, “Pues” is not R3HAB’s first venture into Latin pop; he previously collaborated with TINI & Reik for last year’s sensation, “Bésame” (I Need You).
The sultry music video features TikTok superstar and Instagram sensation, Valeria Sandoval.
R3HAB
“It’s always a pleasure to work with industry legends such as Luis Fonsi and Sean Paul. They are both experts of their craft, and together we came up with a reggaeton-dance record perfect for warm summer nights. I’ve been having a great time making music with artists across the Latin world, like TINI, Reik, Rauw Alejandro, Hungria, and MC Jacare. I’m inspired by the diversity of music cultures within Latin music and have many more to explore. ‘Pues’ is different from everything I’ve released so far, and I’m glad to give it over to our fans now. I hope you love it as much as I do.” – R3HAB explained
R3HAB has been trailblazing his way through dance music for the better part of the last decade. He received massive recognition for his breakthrough hit remix of Afrojack’s, Pitbull’s, and Ne-Yo’s “Give Me Everything” single. Also, for his dance anthems such as “All Around The World (La La La)” and “Lullaby,” which have collectively amassed over 600 million streams online. Plus, his collaborations with the likes of ZAYN, Andy Grammer, Sofia Carson, and Olivia Holt prove that R3HAB is one of the most talented and forward-thinking artists in the game. He partnered with Spotify and GATTÜSO to create the first-ever official “mint” single release.

Luis Fonsi
“I love collaborating and exploring all kinds of genres. So I was very excited when the opportunity came to work with two music giants such as R3HAB and Sean Paul. It was a lot of fun recording PUES. I can’t wait for everyone to listen and dance to it.” – Luis Fonsi stated
Luis Fonsi received global acclaim for his 2017’s hit single, “Despacito,” featuring Daddy Yankee (Universal Latin). His talent was immediately evident upon signing with Universal Music Latin in 1998. His first album, “Comenzare” (I Will Begin), and his “Despacito” single enjoyed commercial and critical success. Since then, Fonsi has released seven more studio albums. Currently, he is a household name thanks to his numerous television, video, and film appearances.
