"Brillo" is a song by Colombian reggaeton singer J Balvin in collaboration with Spanish new flamenco singer Rosalía. Released on May 25, 2018, through Sony Music Latin, It is the seventh track on Balvin's fifth studio album Vibras (2018). It is written by Alejandro Ramírez, Jesús María Nieves, Marco Masis and both performers.
Rolling Stone named "Brillo" an "abstract flamenco duet" while The Guardian had to say that "it is an undeniably sensual track where the delicate and versatile vocals of Spanish flamenco singer Rosalía shine over a minimal background".[1] [2] Remezcla
After being posted on YouTube for 72 hours, the song was streamed over 170,000 times, becoming a moderate hit for Balvin. However, the track gained special recognition in Spain after Rosalía became massively successful in the country following the release of her track "Malamente" in May 2018, the lead single of her Latin Grammy Award-winning album El Mal Querer. The track had over 60 million streams in 2020; as of December 2022, Brillo has over 126 million streams on Spotify. The song became a top-20 hit in Spain and was certified platinum there for selling over 40,000 copies.
Balvin has sung the track live on his 2018 Vibras Tour and Rosalía on her El Mal Querer Tour in 2019. They have sung the track together at The Forum in Inglewood in September 2018 as well as during the Primavera Sound music festival in Barcelona in June 2019, which they both headlined.
