Farruko reached the peak of success with the song “Pepas”, which promotes the use of synthetic drugs.

It has a catchy rhythm, almost impossible to forget, and for those who don’t speak Spanish, its lyrics are indecipherable.

The song “Pepas”, by the Puerto Rican Farruko (30 years old), was one of the biggest hits of the 2021 boreal summer around the world, not only in Spanish-speaking countries, and it continues to be one of the songs that plays in nightclubs.

It was the song of the year, according to the magazine Timewhich chose it over other compositions in which internationally famous artists such as Justin Bieber or Taylor Swift participated.

No song better captured the supreme ecstasy of resurfacing in the world following a long year of social distancing than the uplifting and exuberant Pepas‘” said the US publication in one of its balance of the year articles.
