Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about La Modelo. By Songfacts®.

This dancehall-infused club song finds Puerto Rican singer Ozuna hooking up with American rapper Cardi B, who sings in both Spanish and English. Cardi B told Beats 1's Ebro Darden she was honored. "Ozuna's music used to make me cry. For him to want to collaborate with me, that means so much."

Ozuna told Billboard in an interview: I've done a lot of collabs, but most of the time, it's me on someone else's track. I'd never brought someone like Cardi B into my own music. When you hear, you'll say: 'Wow, that woman is amazing, in English and in Spanish. That to me is the real crossover: a mainstream artist singing in Spanish."

The song's '90s-inspired music video was directed by Nuno Gomes and filmed in Jamaica. Gomes recalled to Billboard that for the last scene he tried to convince Ozuna to hold a flare over his head, but "he was very scared to burn his hair like Michael Jackson in that Pepsi commercial" from 1984. Cardi B overheard the conversation grabbed the flare, held it up thus enabling the shoot to be completed.
