The song—which has sped-up and acoustic versions as well as one with León Leiden—quickly gained traction, garnering 60m+ streams and catapulting him to international recognition as the first Ecuadorian artist to enter the Spotify global charts. Meanwhile, the 13-track album amassed 85m+ streams and solidified Ponce’s status as a rising star. He’s keeping the momentum going with latest single “traición.”
