Tito Double P Teases Collaboration-Stacked New Album for 2027 at the Billboard Latin Music Awards

Tito Double P used the biggest night in Latin music to look ahead. On the blue carpet ahead of the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards on Oct. 22, the Mexican star revealed he is working on a new studio album for 2027 — one built on collaborations with global artists.

“We’re going to see a Tito who is more attuned to the genres that are currently trending, featuring global artists,” he said during Billboard’s blue-carpet coverage. “There’s music on the way that includes many collaborations with fellow artists from here, such as Anuel AA.”

The direction marks a deliberate shift. The new album will follow Acomodo, his studio album released earlier this year, which carried no collaborations at all. Where that record stood entirely on his own voice, the 2027 project is being designed as a meeting point — Tito Double P’s corrido-driven sound opened up to artists across the Latin world and beyond.

The announcement came on a night that also underlined his current standing. Tito Double P took home three awards at the ceremony, including Top Latin Album of the Year for DINASTÍA, his joint album with Peso Pluma — proof of what his collaborative chemistry can produce when it connects.

No title or release date has been announced for the 2027 album, and further guest names have yet to be confirmed. But with Anuel AA already mentioned and a three-trophy night as the backdrop, Tito Double P has made his next move clear: bigger rooms, broader sounds, and a guest list to match.

Víctor Manuelle Brings the Parranda Home on ‘La parranda es nuestra’

Published

Víctor Manuelle is starting Christmas early — and inviting everybody. The Puerto Rican salsa star released La parranda es nuestra on Friday, October 23, through Sony Music Latin: 12 songs, his fourth Christmas album, expanding last year’s six-track EP La parranda es mía into a full-length celebration.

The guest list reads like a tropical hall of fame. Gilberto Santa Rosa, Tito Nieves, José Alberto “El Canario,” Elvis Crespo, Joseph Fonseca and Alfonso Vélez all appear, turning the album into a cross-generational parranda — the door-to-door Christmas party tradition at the heart of Puerto Rican holiday culture.

The night before release, Manuelle premiered “La gozadera en Navidad” with Elvis Crespo live on stage at the Billboard Latin Music Awards in Miami. It was a fitting stage: that same week, his 2025 holiday EP stood as a Billboard Latin Music Awards finalist for Tropical Album of the Year.

The album also refreshes his own holiday staples in new 2026 versions, including “Quiero parranda,” “Ya se ven las bombillitas” and “Los polvos del Sahara.” His favorite, he says, is “Yo me voy para mi tierra,” the story of an emigrant who never makes it home — and the album is dedicated to the Puerto Rican diaspora celebrating far from the island.

La parranda es nuestra is out now: salsa, aguinaldos and an open door, wherever Puerto Ricans gather.

That the album expands a six-song EP into a 12-song event says something about the demand: last year’s La parranda es mía was strong enough to earn a Billboard Latin Music Awards finalist slot for Tropical Album of the Year, and this year’s edition answers with more songs, more legends and a full season to run.
