MIAMI (January 25, 2022) – Two-time GRAMMY®-winning production duo Play-N-Skillz stars in the music video of Baila Así with three renowned Mexican artists – Thalía, Becky G and Chiquis. This visual collaboration can be enjoyed on Play-N-Skillz's YouTube channel.
Filmed in New York City and Los Angeles, this video directed by Michael García and produced by Omar Reynoso for 305 Fills LLC puts the spotlight on Mexican culture with its red, white, and green color theme, as well as images of lowrider bicycles, catrinas, and a convertible.
Thalía, Becky G and Chiquis dazzle us with their energy as well as their cutting-edge and distinctive fashion.
Mixing an innovative cumbia beat and catchy verses with the sax hook of Fito Olivares' 1988 classic La Gallina, this song invites us to dance the night away. As Thalía flirtatiously points out in the lyrics: "Si no bailas conmigo, puede que no se te dé" (If you don't dance with me, things might not go your way). Fito Olivares also serves as co-musical producer with Play-N-Skillz.
Baila Así was released on September 16, 2021, in honor of the singers' Mexican roots. Now, we can enjoy the visual concept of this vibrant song, as well as the charisma of the producers and the legendary vocalists.
The video for Baila Así follows in the footsteps of other recent hits for Play-N-Skillz, including Tranki with De La Ghetto and Ñengo Flow, Billetes with Nicky Jam and Natanael Cano, and Bésame with Daddy Yankee and Zion & Lennox.
