Oasis (Spanish: [oˈasis], stylized in all caps) is a collaborative album by Colombian singer J Balvin and Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, released on June 28, 2019.^[5] The pair previously collaborated on Cardi B's 2018 single "I Like It". "Qué Pretendes" was released as the lead single with a video alongside the album,^[6] being later followed by "La Canción", "Yo Le Llego", and "Cuidao por Ahí".

The album debuted at number 9 on the US Billboard 200 and number 1 on the Top Latin Albums and Latin Rhythm Albums chart with first week sales of 36,000.^[7]

Background

Oasis was first teased during a J Balvin interview with Beats 1 radio host Ebro Darden and was first announced during an interview with Complex in September 2018. The album is meant to be deemed as a new and "refreshing" sound. In a press release, Bad Bunny called it "a transcendental and refreshing album; it is a rescue, a relief", while J Balvin said they both "always seem to be on the same wavelength, as he likes what I like."^[8]^[9]
