Why did the artists connect?
Bunny and Tommy first met in 2019 in the Coliseo de Puerto Rico. Tommy was hired to play the piano on the ballad “Amorphoda”. However, as Bunny pointed out Sign in the case of digital coverage, “it happened very quickly,” and they don’t really connect.
“One day last year, I was in the Rimas office, and I said I had written a song that I thought was good for Tommy to sing,” Bunny told Sign. “I hadn’t told anyone or reached out until then because I was thinking,‘ Why Tommy, who writes about canciones cabronas [badass songs], I want to write a song for her? ‘But one of his teammates was there and said,’ I think Tommy would be interested in that idea. ”So they called him right away and said,” Yes. ” ‘
“I’ve been making it for other artists for years now,” added Tommy, “but this is the first time an artist has told me, ‘I want to do something for you.’ Having someone like Benito, who has been looking at a lot of technology and taking over this generation – well, it’s not going to be better than that. ”

We just came in and started making music,” Bad Bunny said. that’s how Tommy speaks. Learning how Bunny sings things was, as Tommy said, “learning a new instrument.”
Tommy sells Sign that the song “Demasiado Amor” is “a good example of how we wrote [together]. When we get to the studio, we talk about a million things, we eat sushi and sit and play the piano, and take a break, in less than an hour and a half, we write the whole song. One, because the sessions were going very well and two, because Benito comes up with ideas very quickly, has left this world. ”
“We didn’t do this because one of us needed it,” Bunny said. “And no one is doing good to everyone. It just happened. We want this, and we feel good. ”That feeling came to the album. No other words have been recorded except for Tommy and Bad Bunny.
