Formula, Vol. 2 is the second studio album by American singer Romeo Santos, released on February 25, 2014 by Sony Music Latin. The album took effect by the success of its first two singles, "Propuesta Indecente," or "Indecent Proposal," with a zest of bachata-tango mix and "Odio," or "Hatred", featuring Drake, which spent seventeen combined, non-consecutive weeks atop the Hot Latin Songs charts and have remained in the top 5 of the chart for 98 of its 100 weeks.

Contents

Right after its release, the album hit number one in different countries as well as fifth place in the U.S. The album has well-known artists from the Latin and pop world such as Drake, Nicki Minaj, Marc Anthony, Tego Calderón and others. Each of the songs in the album has its own world and meaning. Each of them with an experience to share, to give, or to appreciate.

Not only was the album famous for making history in filling out the stadiums and selling out tickets, but also for the music video for Yo También (a song on the album) being viewed 380 million times on YouTube.

Singles

In "Propuesta Indecente" or "Indecent Proposal", It's a story about of seduction, adventure and a one-night stand, which the video was shot in Buenos Aires with the Mexican actress, Eiza Gonzalez who brought greater success. The song "Odio" or "Hatred", featuring the rapper Drake tells us the story of a broken heart suffering for their love one. "Eres Mía" or "You're Mine" tells us the story of a woman marrying a man who she doesn't love, which video was shot in New York City. "Yo También" or "I, Too", featuring Marc Anthony, sings about the rivalry of a man's love for his former girlfriend. Debating who loved her the most. Each song is unique connecting with Latin genres that makes bachata connect to a world of dance.
