“Dardos” was named one of the “25 Best Latin Songs of 2025” by Billboard and debuted at number 8 on the Hot Latin Songs chart, as well as ranking 7th on the Spotify Top Songs Debut Global and United States charts. The theme explores R&B through a contemporary arrangement that mixes afrobeat, tropical rhythms, violins, and a variety of guitars. The modern lyrics incorporate Dominican slang and use astrology as a narrative resource to define the personality traits of the protagonists in a toxic relationship, capturing the heartbreak left by the wounds and mistakes of a loved one. Fans will get a sneak peek of what this tour will bring when Santos and Royce take the stage to perform a medley of Better Late Than Never at this year’s Premio Lo Nuestro awards, on February 19. Santos has four nominations at this year’s ceremony, including Artist of the Year.

Santos led the entire production, combining the traditional arrangements of the genre with modern sounds, fusing R&B and urban rhythms.
