J Balvin becomes the first Hispanic artist to get his own meal with the fast-food powerhouse. Previous collaborations have included Travis Scott earlier this year and Michael Jordan in 1992.
The singer is no stranger to collaborations. He recently teamed up with Guess for a spring ’20 capsule collection and campaign inspired by his upcoming new album. Called Colores after his fourth solo studio album, the Guess line incorporates red, yellow, green, blue and purple tones into each piece through tie-dye detailing and the brand’s logo.
In December, FN awarded Balvin with the Style Influencer honor at the 2019 Footwear News Achievement Awards for his unique taste and affinity for fashion. “When I was a kid, I was always curious to dress differently, but I’m still finding my style,” he told FN. “It’s like music. The more I do it, the more I find myself. At the end of the day, fashion is expression; it’s art.”
