Exclusive: J Balvin's New Song "Dorado" Is Inspired by McDonald's and the Latinx Community

Latin superstar J Balvin is taking his McDonald's collaboration to the next level.

After the launch of his popular meal — Big Mac (sans pickles), fries (with ketchup), and an Oreo McFlurry — the "Un Dia" artist is releasing a song, or as he calls it, a "musical act," with the fast-food giant to celebrate the Latino gang.

Released on Nov. 19, "Dorado" is inspired by J Balvin's last album "Colores" and the golden arches themselves. In an exclusive interview with Distractify, J Balvin opened up about his long-standing love of McDonald's, the inspiration behind the song, and his plans for 2021.

J Balvin's song "Dorado" celebrates Latinos from every walk of life.

Growing up in Colombia, J Balvin vividly remembers seeing McDonald's in movies and on TV, so when he got the offer to collaborate with McDonald's, it was a dream come true.

"I'm still like, 'Woah,'" Balvin said of the partnership. "I'm really honored to be the first Latino to make this collab with McDonald's. It's really special. I grew up with McDonald's and every time I'm on tour, we're huge fans and we always stop by and get McDonald's."
