Background

The collaboration between Carlos Santana and Lopez was first announced in September 2007.[2] According to Contactmusic, it turned out "so good" which is why it was added to the final track listing of Ultimate Santana. Mexican rapper Baby Bash also features on the song, performing a rap verse.[3]

Reception

Monsters and Critics called the song "red hot"[4] while Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that is "a dance number where Santana seems incidental."[5]
