Background

edit

Nio García talks about how the remix version of "AM" featuring J Balvin and Bad Bunny was conceived which hit the charts moderately.[3]

García spoke in an interview regarding the story behind the remix version of the track:

"I have an exquisite and marvelous team. I always try to create a cool ambiance,” Nio Garcia told Billboard during a Live Q&A on Instagram. “We created many songs at the same time but I focused on this one because I knew it was going to be a hit."

Produced by Flow La Movie, Xound, Botlok and Yama, “AM” marked the first single released by García of 2021. It’s a saucy reggaeton track that cleverly counts from one to 12 to describe everything he wants to do to a girl.
