[face screwing up in math gif] So let’s see, that’s [1] per minute…

[6.00]
Will Adams: What hath “Te Boté” wrought? The curmudgeon in me wants to support any music that flies in the face of the streaming-borne trend of songs shrinking to Vine-length nuggets, but a posse cut that goes nowhere across its six minutes isn’t it.

Hannah Jocelyn: Lo-Fi Latin Trap Beats to Vibe Out To, but particularly good at that.Everyone involved, especially Cazzu, does an above average job, and it doesn’t feel like six minutes whatsoever.

Julian Axelrod: So many remixes crumble under the weight of their own guest list, each feature feeling like another step through the quicksand. So it’s a pleasant surprise to hear a posse cut this buoyant and light. Everything about it feels unforced, like a long, lazy afternoon where all your friends stop by unannounced. (Special shout-out to Cazzu, who’s proven time and time again she can pretty much do anything.) Every good hang needs a great host, and Dalex’s cry to the heavens grows more affirming and affecting every time it circles around.

Iris Xie: The ensemble passes the verses among themselves like a blunt at a winding down rooftop party, or on a boat that is gently rocked by the waves. The percussion is simultaneously peppy and jewel-like, and heightens the warm, chill, and comfortable rhythms here. The slightly strained, wavering way that they all sing the hook adds emotional spice and subtle layers of expressiveness.

Katherine St Asaph: I, for one, am pretty optimistic for the Latin-trap Sade future, of which you can hear glimmers here.

Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: 6 minutes long and it feels like it– there’s not enough differentiation between the 7+ verses for “Pa Mi” to really be worth your while, but the groove is smooth and there’s nothing unpleasant about the ride.
