Benny Jamz and Gilli’s original “Reposado” already established itself as one of Denmark’s standout pop-infused hip-hop tracks, but the remix, featuring J Balvin, takes it into an entirely new dimension — a celebration of cross-cultural fusion and global festival energy. Dropped earlier this week (Dec. 31), this is the kind of track we’ll be bumping all weekend to kick off a new year.
Known for their magnetic chemistry, Danish-Jamaican rapper/producer Benny Jamz, and Gilli, one of Denmark’s most-streamed artists, delivered slick verses in their native tongue and breezy beats on the 2024 original (from their joint album KENNY), blending reggaetón-tinged, Afro-house rhythms with lyrical “bachata” and “reposado” shout-outs, of course. But the remix ups the ante: the Colombian superstar injects his unmistakable Medellín heat into the track.
From the opening moment, the remix grabs you with its infectious party energy. J Balvin’s verses, delivered in Spanish, add a bold sense of bravado into the track. “Me dicen el paisa porque llegué de Medallo / En Dinamarca carrier y caballo,” he spits mid-song.
True to its message, “Reposado Remix” tells us that partying is a universal language, whether you’re sipping Casamigos in Copenhagen or dancing to bachata in a humid Medellín nightclub.
