Names like 'Rojo', 'Azul' and 'Morado' are the real test here: on the Colores album the title reveals nothing, so you match the color to its beat. The global anthems 'Mi Gente' and 'I Like It' are the gentle warm-up.
Away from the beats, the details do their own work: a Medellín kid who broke reggaeton worldwide, a Beyoncé remix, a Cardi B number one, an album painted with a Japanese pop artist. These settle the ties.
There are four tiers to a J Balvin round. The worldwide anthems come first, then the color-coded Colores album, the remix features where he hides, and the early deep cuts only real fans place.
These are the crossover hits everyone knows: 'Mi Gente', remixed by Beyoncé, the Cardi B number one 'I Like It', and 'Ginza'. Most players name them from the first bar, so they are the easy points that open any J Balvin quiz.
On the 2020 album Colores, every song is a color: 'Rojo', 'Azul', 'Amarillo', 'Morado', 'Verde'. The title tells you nothing about the sound, so the quiz makes you match each color to its actual beat. This is where casual fans come unstuck.
Balvin turns up as a guest as often as a lead. 'I Like It' is a Cardi B track, 'X' pairs him with Nicky Jam, and the 'Oasis' EP teams him with Bad Bunny. The sneaky questions ask whether he is even the main artist on the song.
Before the worldwide fame came the Medellín come-up: 'Ay Vamos', '6 AM' with Farruko and the album tracks off La Familia and Energía. Place these from a short clip and you are in the top tier of any J Balvin round.
The color-coded Colores album. A title like 'Verde' or 'Morado' tells you nothing about the sound, so you have to know each track, and his remix features hide him on other artists' songs. Both traps make it a good round to guess the song with friends in multiplayer.
'Mi Gente', 'I Like It', 'Ginza', 'X' with Nicky Jam and 'Ay Vamos' are among the most-guessed in the songs round.
His 2020 album Colores names every track after a color, from 'Rojo' to 'Amarillo', so the quiz asks you to match the color to the actual song.
