Music[edit]

Along with its singles, the primarily Spanish album includes "Sola", which was described as a "mid-tempo, sultry R&B tinged jam over sparse arrangements" by Billboard.[4] It includes a variety of tempos, ranging from the "up-tempo urban/pop fusions" "Despacito" and "Échame la Culpa" to the romantic ballad "Le pido al cielo".[4] Billboard named Vida one of the most anticipated albums of 2019, saying there would be "plenty of new ballads, which Fonsi sings predominantly in Spanish and delivers with an urban touch".[5]

Commercial performance[edit]

In the United States, Vida debuted at number 18 on the US Billboard 200 with 22,000 equivalent album units and at number one on the Top Latin Albums chart and on the Latin Pop Albums chart.[8]
