Though his music is primarily reggaeton, J Balvin has experimented with a variety of musical genres in his work, including electronica, house music, trap, and R&B. He has collaborated with artists such as Pharrell Williams, Major Lazer, and Sean Paul. Despite working with many English-speaking artists, J Balvin continues to sing almost exclusively in Spanish, and hopes to introduce Spanish-language music to a global audience. He is also noted for his eclectic and colorful fashion sense.
Balvin's breakthrough came in 2014 with the single "6 AM" featuring Puerto Rican singer Farruko which peaked at. The song, along with the single "Ay Vamos", bolstered sales of his debut album La Familia. In 2016, he released Energia, which included the hit singles "Ginza", "Bobo", "Safari", and "Sigo Extranandote". In June 2017, J Balvin released the single "Mi Gente" with Willy William, which achieved international success and later reached one billion views on YouTube. This preceded the release of his fifth full-length album, titled Vibras, the concept for which was developed from the moment "Mi Gente" started "connecting with audiences around the world," presented as a fusion of reggaeton with different worldwide styles and rhythms. It received favorable reviews from critics and audiences alike, with Juana Giaimo of The Guardian praising the sound of the reggaeton music on the album by calling it "smooth" and "sensual", and dubbing it the "perfect party playlist, [which] confirms that the noisy style of early reggaeton hits such as Daddy Yankee's 'Gasolina' is slowly being left behind."
He has also collaborated with Cardi B and Bad Bunny on the US Billboard Hot 100 number-one single "I Like It".

Yo te soñaba de hace tiempo
Estabas en mi pensamiento
Yo te soñaba de hace tiempo
Estabas en mi pensamiento
Dímelo, que sucedió
Mi corazón, se lo llevó
Mi corazón, se lo llevó
Mi corazón
Se lo robó
La luna es testigo
De mi triste destino
Sin ti no hay camino
Todo es oscuridad
Si tú no estás conmigo
No me siento bien
No me siento bien
Déjame ser el único hombre
Que tú quieres ver
Y recorrer lentamente toda tu piel
Así es por que me gusta tu forma de ser
Tú tranquila y relajada
Así es que me gusta
Mi mujer amada
Dama en la calle, sexual en la cama
Que que no, le importa el dinero y la fama
Tú tranquila y relajada
Así es que me gusta
Mi mujer amada
Dama en la calle, sexual en la cama
Que que no, le importa el dinero y la fama
Mi corazón
Se lo robó
La luna es testigo
De mi triste destino
Sin ti no hay camino
Todo es oscuridad
La luna es testigo
De mi triste destino
Sin ti no hay camino
Todo es oscuridad
Hey dame una oportunidad
No dejemos todo atrás
Solo una y nada más
Hey hey no dejemos todo atrás
Solo una y nada más
Bien tranquila Y Relajada
Así es que me gusta
Mi mujer amada
Dama en la calle, sexual en la cama
Que que no, le importa el dinero y la fama

Estas canciones se escuchaban también en España (aunque no de forma extendida, sino de manera casual), igual que "como un animal", "seguiré subiendo", "me gustas tú", etc. Realmente son de las canciones que más me gustan de J Balvin, aunque desde luego hay canciones posteriores que me encantan, por ejemplo en el álbum "La familia", aunque hay que decir que perdió un poco la esencia volviéndose más comercial.
