Puerto Rican urban music artist Myke Towers has released his new single, Carita feliz, offering an intimate look at the emotional struggles hidden behind everyday smiles. The track was issued in Miami under the Warner Music Latina record label and is available across all major digital streaming platforms.
The single combines melodic reggaeton rhythms with sensitive, honest lyrics that focus on mental health and vulnerability. The composition encourages listeners to acknowledge that not every day is positive and that it is acceptable to feel unwell.
Reggaeton and urban Latin music, genres rooted in Puerto Rican youth culture that have expanded into global commercial phenomena, frequently emphasize high-energy party anthems. With this release, Towers departs from standard genre tropes to present a more introspective message.
The project arrives at a time when social media platforms regularly promote curated images of constant perfection and happiness. Towers designed the song to create space for emotional honesty, highlighting the importance of seeking external support during difficult moments.
Cinematic short film featuring Clara Galle
The song launch is accompanied by a cinematic short film starring Spanish actress Clara Galle, who brings a dramatic narrative dimension to the visual release. Galle is widely recognized in Spanish film and television for her work in contemporary drama productions.
Rather than functioning as a standard music video, the production is presented as an immersive audiovisual experience that complements the central message of the track. The storyline follows themes of personal loneliness, the search for emotional connection, and the relief that comes from sharing genuine feelings with others.
Reflecting on the core meaning of Carita feliz, Towers said that there were good days and days that were not so good. He noted that it was fine not to feel okay, adding that people should come find him whenever they needed someone.
Recent achievements and career milestones
The new single comes during a major high point in the musician's career. Towers concluded 2025 as one of the leading figures in Latin music, topping major international music charts and earning multiple multi-platinum sales certifications worldwide.
