Rising Latin artist Jhosy continues to define his sound with the release of “La Champeta,” a vibrant and deeply personal track rooted in the cultural heartbeat of Cartagena, Colombia.
For Jhosy, the record represents more than just a release—it’s a reflection of his musical beginnings. Champeta, a genre embedded in Cartagena’s identity, played a foundational role in shaping his artistic journey. With “La Champeta,” he reconnects with those origins while pushing the sound toward a global audience.
The track was created in collaboration with Cartagena-based producers Joe on the Beat and Juan Di., capturing the essence of love, movement, and emotional energy that defines the genre. The chemistry in the studio was immediate, resulting in a record that feels both authentic and effortlessly dynamic.
Recognizing the need for a powerful voice within the champeta space, Jhosy brought in Koffee El Kafetero, whose raw energy adds depth and authenticity to the track, elevating it further within the genre.
With “La Champeta,” Jhosy embraces his Afro-Caribbean roots and reinforces his mission to take this sound beyond borders. The release marks another step in his evolution as an artist committed to bridging cultural sounds with a global audience.
