Ryan Castro amps up the perreo with his fresh single “La Sapió,” a tough reggaetón track that recaptures the authentic, ghetto-inspired energy that has been the hallmark of his growth as El Cantante del Ghetto.
After a year where Ryan explored the Caribbean and dancehall styles of Sendé and Hopi Sendé, “La Sapió” highlights a different side of his musical identity. This track is direct and catchy reggaetón, tailored for clubs, urban areas, and late-night parties.
Produced by Ryan’s lUnder the production direction of Ryan’s long-standing partner SOG, the producer of numerous reggaetón tracks that have been integral to Castro’s discography, “La Sapió” draws deeply from the roots of his El CantantePowered by an unstoppable perreo beat, the track dives into the unmistakably reggaetón melody that has always formed the core of Ryan’s career from the very start. It underscores his adaptability, an artist who can effortlessly shift between dancehall, Caribbean beats, and urban tracks, while maintaining a deep connection to perreo, which has come to represent him.
“La Sapio” functions as a further preview of Ryan’s upcoming album, a project he has been gradually hinting at through new tracks and performances. The track continues with “Mentira,” previously released alongside Feid, and merges with “Brincao,” a song not yet out, that Ryan is gradually presenting to fans in person. In his recent stadium show in Bucaramanga, Colombia, he performed “Brincao” exclusively, giving audiences a preview of his upcoming project.
The release arrives amid another major moment for Castro, who this week earned a nomination at the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards for Latin Rhythm Song of the Year for his global hit “La Villa” with Kapo and Gangsta..
Concurrently, Ryan embarks on a 16-date tour across the United States and Canada, SENDÉ THE LAST DANCE. The run has already seen sold-out shows in Atlantic City and Canada, with upcoming dates in Boston, Orlando, Denver and more also selling out as the tour continues across North America.
