Composition

Written by Santos himself, "Propuesta Indecente" is a Dominican bachata song, with incorporations of Argentinian tango.[2]

Commercial performance

In January 2017, it was certified double-diamond in the Latin field by the Recording Industry Association of America for selling over 1.2 million units in the United States.[3] It also became the first song to remain on the US Hot Latin Songs chart for over 100 weeks.[4] As of 2021, "Propuesta Indecente" is the second best-performing Latin song of all-time on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart following "Despacito".[5]

Music video

Its accompanying music video was released on September 9, 2013, which was filmed at the National Library of Argentina and Palacio San Miguel.[6] Featuring Mexican entertainer Eiza González, it begins in a black-and-white scene, with Santos talking to a group of men at a party, eventually making eye contact at González. Throughout the video, surroundings start changing into colors, and both Santos and González begin dancing in the near end of the video and later run outside the palace to a red car, with González spilling a bottle of tequila in front of the palace and lighting the trace on fire before doing so.[1] The video was directed by Joaquín Cambre and produced by Virgin Films.[7]

The music video attained over 100 million views on social platform YouTube in only three months,[8] before attaining over 1 billion views by July 2016,[9] making it the second music video in Spanish and by a Latin artist to do so at the time, behind Enrique Iglesias' "Bailando".[10] It has received over 2 billion views on YouTube as of September 2023.[11]

Its music video earned the Lo Nuestro Award for Video of the Year at the 26th Lo Nuestro Awards,[12][13] with the song itself eventually receiving the Lo Nuestro Award for Tropical Song of the Year the following year.[14]
