Mayor Que Usted
"Mayor Que Usted" (English: "Older Than You") is a song by Dominican singer Natti Natasha, Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee and Puerto Rican duo Wisin & Yandel, released on June 17, 2022 under Pina Records and Sony Music Latin. It was written by Natti Natasha, Daddy Yankee, Wisin & Yandel, Puerto Rican producers DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz and Ovimael "OMB" Maldonado, Puerto Rican rapper Pusho, Puerto Rican businessman and Natti Natasha's husband Raphy Pina, Kevin Galván, Kedin Maysonet, Wander Méndez and Rafael Salcedo. It was produced by DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz, Raphy Pina and Wisin. It is a reggaeton and bachata fusion reminiscent of the single "Mayor Que Yo" (2005), in which Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel participated, blending contemporary sounds with those found on that song, as well as "touches of merengue ripiao". Commercially, it peaked at number one in the Dominican Republic, Mexico and Puerto Rico, at nine in Honduras, at 18 in El Salvador and at 29 on the US Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart. Background and composition
"Mayor Que Usted" was written by Natti Natasha, Daddy Yankee, Wisin & Yandel, DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz's members Edgar Semper and Xavier Semper, Ovimael "OMB" Maldonado, Pusho, Kevin Galván, Kedin Maysonet, Wander Méndez, Rafael Salcedo and Pina Records' CEO Raphy Pina, who is Daddy Yankee's manager and Natti Natasha's husband. It was produced by DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz, Raphy Pina and Wisin. It was recorded and mixed by DJ Luian and Mambo Kingz, with Santo Niño also serving a recording engineer, and was mastered by Puerto Rican audio engineer Esteban Piñero. Natti Natasha and Daddy Yankee had previously worked together on singles including "Otra Cosa" (2016), "No Lo Trates" and "Runaway" (both 2019), while she also collaborated with Yandel on his Quien Contra Mí 2 track "Diablo En Mujer" (2020), and is her first song with Wisin and both Wisin & Yandel as duo. It will be the last collaboration between Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel, since the former announced that he will retire after the end of his farewell concert tour, La Última Vuelta, and the latters will disband as duo after their tour La Última Misión. The three of them had also worked together on other singles including "No Me Dejes Solo" (2004), "Mayor Que Yo" (2005), "Noche de Entierro" (2006) and "Si Supieras" (2019). Natti Natasha felt that she was accomplishing something "nearly impossible" by working with Daddy Yankee and Wisin & Yandel, who she referred to as her "referents" and described collaborating with them as "priceless". She also stated that "in this last stage of their careers, now they are the older ones and I am the younger, in charge of continuing to bring my music to the world." Los Angeles Times reported that the collaboration was achieved before Daddy Yankee's retirement announcement in March 2022. The song's title, chorus and fusion between reggaeton and bachata are reminiscent of "Mayor Que Yo" (2005) by Puerto Rican singer Tony Tun Tun, Wisin & Yandel, Daddy Yankee and Puerto Rican rappers Héctor el Father and Baby Ranks. It also interpolates Wisin & Yandel's singles "Mírala Bien" (2005) and "Ahora Es" (2007) and Daddy Yankee's Talento de Barrio track "Come y Vete" (2008). The collaboration was first announced on June 14, 2022 by Wisin & Yandel on their social media, who posted that it would be with Daddy Yankee and a to-be-announced artist. Daddy Yankee posted that he "could not leave without this collaboration" and Natti Natasha's involvement was announced the following day. It is a reggaeton song with a duration of three minutes and fifty-four seconds that blends modern sounds with those found in "Mayor Que Yo", as well as "touches of merengue ripiao".
