On 27 June 2019, J Balvin released his new album in collaboration with Bad Bunny titled "Oasis". The record was released overnight and was deemed a "surprise" release. The two artists first met at a J Balvin concert in Puerto Rico, when Bad Bunny was working on releasing music on SoundCloud, and then collaborated on the 2017 track "Si Tu Novio Te Deja Sola". The chemistry between the two was so strong that they came up with the idea to release a joint album. "Oasis" peaked at number nine on the "Billboard" 200, and topped the "Billboard" US Latin Albums chart. The album was nominated for Best Latin Rock, Urban or Alternative Album at the 2020 Grammy Awards and was named one of "Rolling Stone"'s Best Latin Albums of 2019.
