Balvin ever mentioned the Bangladeshi song in any of their interviews that I have found. Interestingly, when asked about the creation of the hook, Williams has answered, “I don’t know if it’s a secret, how I made this hook, it’s a mix of vocal, flute and sax,” and that he “made track in two hours.” In neither of those interviews did he ever reference Heila Duila Nach, and neither he nor J.
Heila Duila Nach was released in December of 2016, and Voodoo Song came out in May of 2017, so it’s highly unlikely that the sampling went the other way around. Even to the untrained ear, listening to a short section of each of the three songs demonstrates that they all share their signature sound. The hook itself is a slowed-down, embellished version of a sample from a Bengali/Bangladeshi song called Heila Duila Nach by artists Akassh and Bidya Sinha Saha Mim. However, that catchy hook wasn’t even Williams’ to donate it wasn’t completely his original work. Balvin to create the Spanish sensation, it’s no surprise that he’d lend his previous creative works to the project. Since Williams collaborated with Colombian artist J. Mi Gente also borrowed Voodoo Song’s background hook. The line is taken directly from Voodoo Song, which Williams had released earlier in 2017. Co-writer Willy William is a French DJ, and he provides the lines “mais fais bouger la tête” and “c’est comme ci, c’est comme ça, ma chérie.” The first contribution hints at the fact that the original version of this song isn’t completely original. What originally drew me to this song were the French lyrics sprinkled throughout it. Despite its strong ties to Spanish, the song also includes lyrics in French and English. The title translates to “My People,” which underscores its message of solidarity among Spanish-speaking communities around the world. Mi Gente has become a symbol of pride and unity for the Latin community, especially after Beyoncé announced that the proceeds from her remix would be donated to relief efforts in Mexico, the Caribbean, and Puerto Rico following the hurricanes in mid-2017. 19 on the Billboard Hot 100, and the combined chart entries for its remix featuring Beyoncé surpassed it by reaching No.3. The original version of this Latin hit peaked at No. If you’ve listened to the radio or gone to a club in the past year, chances are that you’ve heard Mi Gente¸ the hit song by J.
