Background
editThe album was produced during the COVID-19 pandemic and was recorded in both Medellin, Colombia and Miami, United States.[4] It was mostly produced by Colombian record producer Sky Rompiendo, who had previously worked on several occasions with Feid, including his first song "Morena", released in 2016.[5] On August 2, 2021, Feid announced the date release of the album via his Instagram account, he also shared its cover, title, tracklist and producers for each song, the tracklist included a bonus track as the fifteenth song in the album which later was announced to be "Si Tú Supieras" after being chosen by his fans.[6] The title derives from the street ward of Shibuya in Tokyo and comes from the Feid's admiration of Japanese culture, he said that "for me, the intersection represents a meeting point and this is a way to say that I want a lot of people to get drawn to my album".[7] The album cover shows four intersecting circles in the CMYK color model, each representing one of his four studio albums, it was designed by his sister and painted by his father.[8][7]
Inter Shibuya was inspired by the reggaeton songs from the early 2000s that got Feid into the genre, he said that "beyond a tribute, I wanted to find my space in reggaeton, give myself my place. I had always thought, how do I live like a classic? How do I live in that moment? Because what made me fall in love with reggaeton is not what it sounds like now, what (sounds) now is the music of my generation, which is super cool. But what made me fall in love with reggaeton was Baila Morena by Héctor & Tito; Motivando a la Yal, the Zion & Lennox album; Barrio Fino, Daddy Yankee's album", he continued by saying that "I wanted to make, in this album in particular, a journey through the types of reggaeton songs that I personally liked to listen to when I was a big fan and deeply into reggaeton".[9]
To promote the album and its special edition, Feid embarked on the tour VACAXIONES con el Ferxxo which spanned through several cities in Colombia such as Bogotá and Cali, the tour started on December 3, 2021, with a concert in Villavicencio.[10]
