In his latest track “Dientes,” J Balvin incorporates a familiar sample from Usher’s hit “Yeah!” The title of the song, which translates to “Teeth” in English, becomes a recurring motif as J Balvin encourages listeners to showcase this particular body part repeatedly throughout the song’s duration.
The music video for “Dientes” is a visual spectacle, featuring multiple iterations of J Balvin and Usher dancing together on an illuminated disco floor. Notably, DJ Khaled makes an appearance, showcasing his best moves on a Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) machine. He portrays an overworked arcade prize attendant with tickets piling up around him. With a quizzical expression, he seems to inquire, “Another one?” to the camera. However, his impressive DDR skills earn the admiration of those around him, suggesting that his gaming prowess is more than sufficient to impress. Usher’s 2004 Vibe magazine cover features heavily in the “Dientes” music video before the man himself comes to life right off the page.
