It is one of the greatest references of the international urban music scene. His talent reached all corners of the world, conquering artists from other scenes who ended up working with him and exploring their own artistic world.
He is J.Balvin, which has become the great protagonist of many parties. However, accustomed to the frenetic pace of artists’ schedules, who have adapted to an industry dominated by high demand and massive releases every week, That the Colombian hasn’t shown any signs of life in months is something we should all miss.
Where is J Balvin? Why is it since July 2022 without releasing new songs? What is the artist focusing on now?
The answer is in their son Río, born June 27, 2021. The little one has become the biggest responsibility of the singer, who also lives this beautiful scene with his girlfriend Valentina Ferrer. After the arrival of his eldest son in the world, the Colombian occasionally released international hits, as is the case with To Da Getto with Skrillex, a note with Dry keep on going there Forever, my love with Ed Sheeran and A step with Thunder. But little by little, he steered the path of his life towards Rio, who now has his father’s full attention.
It also coincides with the release of the Bizarrap and Residente session, which is a clear dedication to the interpreter of What else then?. The beef that exists between the Puerto Rican and the Colombian is no secret, and the words that the rapper dedicates to reggaetonero in each of the verses of this song could have made his team take the decision to take advantage to raise his son temporarily s away from the music industry.
What we also know is that for the past few months, J Balvin has been enjoying his Japanese mansion designed for peace and mental health, a subject to which he has shown himself to be totally devoted. For the artist, taking care of his mind and being aware of the affection of those around him is essential, so this temporary retreat from music has helped him to focus on himself and to value all those who are part of his life.
We have also seen it at occasional fashion events, such as Paris Fashion Week, which took place in January this year.
Also outside the networks
Focusing on himself also led him to distance himself from social media, tools that kept him in touch with his followers. His last post was in September 2022 and, of course, it features his son Río. “The children of Medellín,” he says in his description.
There is no doubt that Balvin enjoys every second that life gives him. This, yes. His followers keep asking themselves the same question: When are you coming back, J Balvin?
