"Un x100to" (English: "One Percent") is a song by Mexican band Grupo Frontera and Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny. It was released on April 17, 2023, through Rimas.

Background

After Bad Bunny called himself a "big fan" of regional Mexican music, the song marks only the second time the artist tapped into the genre, following the remix of "Soy el Diablo" by Natanael Cano.[2] In an interview with Zane Lowe, he expressed his love for the band and explained how important it is for the world to be exposed to other Latin music genres besides "reggaeton and perreo and urban music".[3] The artist posted a TikTok of him dancing to the song on April 16, 2023, his first appearance on the app in four months.[4]

The group noted that they had no idea Benito would be featured on the song until the day of the video shoot.[5]

Composition

Produced by Latin "hitmaker" Edgar Barrer and Puerto Rican-Dominican producer Mag Borrero, the song features a fusion of "captivating percussion" and Grupo Frontera's signature "accordion melody". The collaboration sees Barrer putting his "romantic cumbia-norteño spin" on the Grupo Frontera sound.[1] The chorus is sung by Payo Solís of the band and Bad Bunny.[4] It tells the story of a person missing their former partner, calling them with just one percent of battery left on the phone and sending messages that keep them awake.[6]

Ingrid Fajardo of Billboard referred to the song as a "new heartbreak anthem".[6]

Music video

An accompanying music video was released on April 17, 2023, directed by Abelardo Baez and filmed in a Nevada ghost town.[7] The visuals are set on a ranch.[8] Bad Bunny stands out among the group with a light-blue outfit, while Grupo Frontera wears Cowboy-style clothing.[9]
