Bad Bunny features on 'Tormenta'. Damon revealed in an interview with Warp last year that a Reggaeton song was one of the first songs they made for 'Cracker Island'. 

“What I love about Gorillaz is that I can bring anyone I want, you know? I was in Jamaica recently and recorded a Gorillaz song with Bad Bunny... It’s Bad Bunny meets Gorillaz," he said.
