Drake has solidified his presence in Latin music with his appearance on Colombian artist Karol G’s latest album. The rapper and singer collaborated on the track “Ahí” from her recent release “No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto.” Karol G praised Drake’s ability to perform in Spanish, explaining that she specifically requested he sing in that language for their duet-style collaboration.
This partnership represents just the latest chapter in Drake’s extensive history blending hip-hop with Latin music genres. Throughout his career spanning more than a decade, the Canadian artist has worked alongside some of the industry’s most prominent Latin performers. His collaborations have ranged from bachata with Romeo Santos to Latin trap with Bad Bunny, showcasing his willingness to experiment across different musical styles.
Drake’s Latin music ventures began in 2014 when he joined Romeo Santos on “Odio,” marking his first attempt at singing entirely in Spanish. His 2018 work with Bad Bunny on “Mía” became a landmark moment, reaching number five on the Billboard Hot 100 and helping establish Latin trap in mainstream circles. More recently, Drake has continued these partnerships with tracks like “Gently” alongside Bad Bunny and collaborations with producer Gordo, each time bringing his distinctive style to the genre.
