"In da Getto" is a song by Colombian singer J Balvin and American record producer Skrillex. It was released as a single on 2 July 2021,[2] the fifth single from the album Jose.[citation needed] The song samples the 1993 song "In de Ghetto" by David Morales and Bad Yard.[3]

Critical reception

Reanna Cruz of NPR Music commented: "the song feels like an effortless blend from all parties, underscored by additional production from Latin music ringleader Tainy. 'In da Getto' is relentless and bound to keep energy up through a long night on the dance floor."[4]

Music video

The music video was directed by Alfred Marroquín. The video also features Senegalese-Italian TikTok comedy star Khaby Lame and dancer Jeff Obeng's Mufasa character,[5] and follows Skrillex and Balvin on a night of debauchery, drinking and dancing before ending up at a rowdy house party.[6]
