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".

J Balvin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
¿Cómo te ha ido?
J Balvin, man
¿Qué más pues? ¿Cómo te ha ido? (Eh)
¿Sigue' soltera o ya tiene' marido? (Wuh)
Sé que es personal, perdona lo atrevido (no)
Te pedí en Navidad y Santa no te ha traído (ey)
¿Qué ha habido? (¿Qué ha habido?)
Te perdí el rastro por distraído
La fama esto me tiene jodido
Pero no me olvido de lo sucedido (ey, ey)
Regálame otra noche, quiero verte
Que hay que aclarar par de cosas pendiente' (oh)
Ma', ¿qué lo que? (¿Qué lo que?)
¿Dónde estás? Dime, a ver (dime, a ver)
Que yo voy (wuh)
Voy (lady, lady)
Me perdiste de vista
Ahora e' con otro con quien vacilo en la pista, ey
Ay, José, no me insista'
Das muchas vuelta', parece' motociclista (ey)
Ninguna con este porte
Tengo este booty sin hacer deporte (no, no, no)
Nada va a hacer que me importe'
Porque mi brújula ya cambió su norte (¡wuh!)
Cambió desde que te fuiste tú
Papi, eso lo sabe' muy bien
No me venga' con esa actitud
Que esa la conozco yo también
Y ahora no ando soltera para ti, no, ey
Yo soltera para ti no
Se acabó lo que esa noche nos dimo', ey
Lo que esa noche nos dimo' (oh)
Pa', ¿qué e' lo que? Sé que quieres saber
Dónde estoy, o-o-o-o-o-o-oy
Dime, mai, ¿qué e' la que hay? (Hay, hay)
Esa' Nike te quedan nice (ah)
Uoh, de tu clase ya pocas hay (ah, ah, ah)
Ninguna cabe en tu size
Saca un rato
Que estás sola, ya me dieron el dato (dato)
Dame el PIN, yo te caigo de inmediato (inmediato)
Ellos intentan y yo ni trato
Baby, esto ya es otra liga
Pero tú estás por encima, ey
Vamo' a hacerlo, aprovecha el clima (J Balvin)
Tú está' bien diva, y ese cuerpo que motiva, baby
Vamos a hacerlo, que está rico el clima
¿Qué más pues? ¿Cómo te ha ido?
Tú sigues siendo el mismo engreído
No es personal, pa' novio no has nacido
Me tuviste mucho tiempo, fuiste distraído
Y ahora, ¿qué más pues?
Me he ido
Ya es suficiente lo que tú ha' comido
Aunque no parezca, esto me ha dolido
Y de lo pasado yo no me olvido
Regálame otra noche, quiero verte (verte, verte)
Que hay que aclarar par de cosas pendiente' (eh, eh)
Ma', ¿qué e' lo que? (¿Qué e' lo que?)
¿Dónde estás? Dime, a ver (dime, a ver)
Que yo voy
Voy
Regálame otra noche, quiero verte
Que hay que aclarar par de cosas pendiente'
Ma', ¿qué lo que?
¿Dónde estás? Dime, a ver
Que yo voy, o-o-o-o-o-o-oy
Yo a ti te llamé en agosto, apareciste en enero
Tú de vacacione' en Boston y otro apareció primero
Y me está' empalagando y eso que no e' golosina
Tu novio me está mirando y eso que no soy vitrina
The lyrics of J Balvin's song "Que Mas Pues" revolve around a conversation between two former lovers who run into each other. The song's chorus asks "what's up" and "how have you been," and the lyrics imply that J Balvin is interested in reconnecting with his ex. He asks whether she's single or married and apologizes for being forward. Although he admits to being distracted by fame, he hasn't forgotten what they once had. He wants to clarify some things with her and suggests that they spend another night together. But his ex has moved on, and she's not interested in reconnecting with him. She tells J Balvin that she's no longer single, and she's not interested in him anymore.
The verses reveal more about J Balvin's frame of mind. He's frustrated that he lost track of his ex because he was too distracted by his career. He implies that he was with another woman, but she wasn't as attractive as his ex. He can't get over the fact that she's moved on, and he admits that he's hurt. He asks her one more time if she wants to spend the night with him, but she declines. J Balvin compares their situation to a candy store, implying that he's sweet but not enough to win her back. Overall, the song is about regret and missed opportunities, and the pain of not being able to make things right.
