The decade-long partnership between J Balvin and Vevo has pushed the boundaries of visual and musical artistry. For this performance, Vevo worked closely with Balvin to create a set that echoes Mexico City’s rich history and vibrant energy. The result is a visually stunning presentation, with Balvin clad in all black, performing in a dimly-lit space that conjures an underground Bat Cave. He emerges through a yellow-lit doorway, moving between red-tinted columns set against volcanic stone walls.
