Following the success of Sech's collaboration with Bad Bunny "Ignorantes", the Panamanian singer announced on March 30 that he would be releasing his new single "Relación" on the first of April as a new advance of his upcoming studio album. The song is about female empowerment, in this way, the song reflects again the spite and liberation of a woman in a failed relationship.[3] A music video was uploaded on YouTube the same day the track was released in order to promote the song.[4]
"Relación" has been named one of the songs of the summer of 2020 by multiple magazines specially after the track became extremely popular on TikTok following a choreography designed by Spanish influencer Samuel López.[5] The audio reached over four million uses on the app in August. Thus, the song entered the Top 50 global Spotify chart, reaching the number one spot on the national streaming lists in many Latin American countries, topping them in Bolivia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Honduras, Panama and Perú while reaching the top ten in Argentina, Spain and Guatemala.[6] "Relación" became the sixth most listened song in Spain during summer season.[7]
