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".
un dia sin ti
J Balvin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sientate escucha por un momento mi corazón
No aguanto mas (no aguanto mas)
Si tú no estás (si tú no estás)
La soledad
Me va a matar no quiero mas
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Se que no es fácil expresar mis sentimientos
Y mucho menos demostrar que no lo siento
Sin ti mi vida es triste y vacía
La melodía que necesita mi vida
Pero mi agonía al no poder tenerte
Es tan difícil la lección de no volver a verte
Pero detente y piénsalo bien
Como en una relación que nació muere en el día de ayer
Hubo risa y dolor
Tristesa y pasión
Enseñansas momentos de añoranzas mi amor
Tú y yo somos uno y lo hiciste dos
The just love
Ecucha mi corazón
Que llora de dolor
Favores de Ferroa
Tú y yo somos uno entiendelo ma
Yo lo que quiero es demostrarte todo mi amor
Sientate escucha por un momento mi corazón
No aguanto mas (no aguanto mas)
Si tú no estás (si tú no estás)
La soledad
Me va a matar no quiero mas
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
No es fácil saber que ya no quiere verme
Llegara la vida que tengas otro hombre en tu mente
El cual amara la muerte
El cual besara la muerte
Ahora si comprende mi amor
No fue mi intensión
También cometo errores
Y su pobre dolor
No hay mas opción lista pa mi canción
Solo te lo ordeno mami fue una afición
Yo lo que quiero es demostrarte todo mi amor
Sientate escucha por un momento mi corazón
No aguanto mas (no aguanto mas)
Si tu no estás
La soledad
Me va a matar
No quiero mas
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti
Un día sin ti

Final el principio y el final
