Among the sea of cheering fans were Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, and son, Jaden Smith. The mother-son duo were dancing next to J Balvin’s partner, Valentina Ferrer.
Another Smith who took the stage alongside J Balvin was Willow Smith. The multi-talented daughter of Will and Jada performed a rendition of her song “Big Feelings.”
J Balvin’s performance comes after celebrating a significant milestone for the Colombian reggaeton sensation and his fans worldwide as they celebrated four years since the release of his acclaimed album “Colores.” This album, which stands as Balvin’s fourth solo studio album and fifth overall, has left an indelible mark on the music industry since its debut in 2020.
“Colores,” released during the coronavirus pandemic, is a lively album featuring a variety of sounds, with each track named after a specific color. The talented Sky Rompiendo produced the album, which showcases Balvin’s versatility as an artist by fusing reggaeton with elements of Latin trap and hip-hop.
Reflecting on the significance of “Colores,” J Balvin took to social media to express his gratitude to his fans for their unwavering support over the past four years. In an Instagram post, he wrote, “My mission was to share and perhaps awaken the curiosity of art in youth with the magic of master @takashipom, giving them the name of a color in each song, each one a world apart with a different aesthetic. I love you all, and thank you, without you, it would be impossible.”
