MALUMA RELEASES HIS NEW SINGLE & VIDEO “HAWÁI”

MIAMI, Florida (July 29, 2020). Global Latin music idol MALUMA has just released his hot new single “HAWÁI” along with its music video.

The melodious banger written by Maluma, Keityn, Edgar Barrera and Bull Nene, was produced by Rude Boyz. It tells the classic tale of a relationship breakup set in the modern Instagram age, where the story one tells and the pictures one posts can be deceiving.

The music video for “HAWÁI” is a drama-filled mini-movie, shot in Miami by renown director Jessy Terrero of Cinema Giants, with a storyline written by Maluma himself that takes him through a rollercoaster of situations and emotions in the dramatic aftermath of the end of a relationship. Of course, as in any work of fiction, any similarity to actual persons, places or events, is purely coincidental.

“HAWÁI” is part of Maluma’s upcoming album Papi Juancho dropping later this year.
