Background and composition

edit

During 2017, Londra independently released several songs that received a positive commercial reception in Argentina, leading him to be contacted, through a Colombian YouTuber, by music producer Ovy on the Drums to start working together.[4] In October 2017, Londra traveled to Colombia, where he met the Big Ligas team and composed the song "Condenado Para el Millón" at Ovy on the Drums' house, where they set up and soundproofed the walls to record the song.[4][5]

Critical reception

edit

According to La Voz del Interior, in the performance of the song, "Londra begins to display a more confident and virtuosic flow", while the musical foundation of the single has "a style that easily varies in tempo", representing "a more produced music" compared to his previous works.[6]
