Okay, real talk: the second I pressed play on “Ponte Linda” by MYRANDAS, I was already halfway out of my chair, ready to throw on something cute and hit the town. This track is pure sunshine in audio form, and if you’re into Latin pop that makes you feel like the main character the moment the beat drops, you’re about to become obsessed.
Released on November 21, “Ponte Linda” is the latest single from the LA-based, Havana-born duo MYRANDAS (Kristina Miranda and Marciel Miranda), and it’s giving everything we love about tropical Latin pop right now: infectious dembow-leaning rhythms, Caribbean horns that sneak up on you like a surprise caipirinha, and lyrics that scream “YES, I look THIS good tonight.”
The hook? Iconic. “Vamos pa’ la calle, bebé, ponte linda, sube la canción…” Translation: Get ready, look gorgeous, turn the song up, and own the night. That’s literally the entire vibe in one line.
Kristina’s trilingual vocals float over the groove like she was born to sing over summer nights, while Marciel (who’s already got a Grammy on his shelf as an engineer, hello!) layers in subtle romantic ad-libs and that crisp, polished production the duo is quickly becoming known for. And just when you think it can’t get any hotter, the horns come in at the end and suddenly you’re mentally teleported to the Malecón in Havana at 2 a.m. with all your friends.
Lyrically, the song is a love letter to every woman who knows her shine is non-negotiable. Lines like “Todas mis mamis brillan como Cartier — brillan de noche y de día, de La Habana a Hialeah” had me screaming “PERIOD!” out loud in my living room. It’s that perfect mix of empowering and flirty that makes you want to text the group chat: “We’re going out tonight, no excuses.”
If you’ve been following MYRANDAS, you already know they’ve been on a serious hot streak. After their sultry “La Habitación” got love from Remezcla and Hola! USA, and their debut Spanish EP Nos Dejamos Llevar had everyone hitting repeat, “Ponte Linda” feels like the victory lap. They’ve opened for Fonseca, played LAMC, NextFest LA, NAMM — the résumé is stacked. And now they’re back with a song that feels tailor-made to blow up on TikTok and every pregame playlist from Miami to Mexico City.
Honestly? This is the kind of Latin pop track that reminds you why the genre is dominating global charts right now. It’s fun, it’s fierce, it’s unapologetically celebratory, and it’s got that special MYRANDAS sauce — equal parts Cuba, LA cool, and pure party energy.
