Myke Towers Unveils 'Island Boyz'

In a bold move that reflects his artistic evolution, Myke Towers has launched his highly anticipated album, Island Boyz. With 23 vibrant tracks, this album embodies the essence of Caribbean culture while also pushing the boundaries of contemporary music.

A Unique Blend of Styles

Island Boyz stands out for not trying to fit into predefined categories but rather aims to establish its unique expression. It seamlessly blends reggaeton, dancehall, dembow, Latin R&B, and afrobeats, creating a sound that is both familiar and innovative. From introspective tracks like Expectativas to the infectious beats of Soleao, featuring Quevedo—currently the top Spanish radio hit—this album showcases Myke’s versatility.

Deep Connection to Heritage

What makes Island Boyz particularly special is its deep connection to Myke Towers' roots. As a proud Puerto Rican, his music reflects his island heritage while also exhibiting a modern, daring approach. Tracks such as No Hay Break featuring Omah Lay, and No Quiere Flores with Gabito Ballesteros, highlight a range of influences yet maintain a cohesive narrative throughout the album.

Artistic Collaboration

Myke’s collaborative choices are equally noteworthy, featuring esteemed artists such as De La Ghetto, Manuel Turizo, and Ludmilla. These collaborations stem from genuine artistic chemistry rather than formulaic decisions, enhancing the overall vision of the project. Myke emphasizes that he did not aim for easy hits but strived for authenticity and a deep sonic experience.

The Lead Single

The album's lead single, Tengo Celos, is expected to be a major radio success in the coming months. Myke shared insights into his creative process, explaining, "I wanted it to sound like where I come from but also reflect what I am living now. Island Boyz is the most authentic work I have done so far."
