BOZA MAKES BILLBOARD’S LIST OF THE 25 BEST LATIN ALBUMS OF 2025
SAN BLAS, Boza’s latest album, has been included in Billboard’s coveted The 25 Best Latin Albums of 2025 So Far list. The recognition validates not only the commercial success of the album—certified Gold in the United States, Colombia, Peru, and Central America—but also its narrative power as a body of work deeply connected to identity, spirituality, and the sounds of the contemporary Afro-Latin movement.
The publication highlights Boza’s emotional and experimental approach, noting how throughout SAN BLAS, he transforms afrobeat, amapiano, and reggaetón into vehicles for introspection and healing. The project follows a coded narrative—its first seven songs form the acronym “SANARÁS” (you will heal)—setting Boza apart from predictable formulas and establishing SAN BLAS as a project that pushes the boundaries of urban music.
Tracks like “orióN” featuring Elena Rose, which spent six consecutive weeks at #2 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart and recently won Best Afrobeat Song at Premios Tu Música Urbano, have become symbols of Boza’s evolved vision: intimate lyrics, high-caliber production, and a sonic identity that rejects algorithmic trends in favor of storytelling with purpose.
With SAN BLAS, Boza doesn’t just deliver an album. He offers a visual, conceptual, and musical manifesto that has been praised by critics and embraced by a global listening community. His inclusion on this Billboard list confirms him as a key figure in understanding where Latin music is heading in 2025—toward the personal, the bold, and the profoundly human.
