⁠Eladio Carrión and Omar Courtz Unite for Emotional Trap Anthem

Eladio Carrión, Latin GRAMMY winner and trap heavyweight, joins forces with rising urban star Omar Courtz for “Primer Lugar”, a melodic trap track that catches you off guard—in the best way. Produced by Sky Rompiendo, Culprit, and hidemiyabi, the single balances raw edge with emotional honesty, resulting in a slow-burning confessional about falling for someone without meaning to.

What starts as a casual moment between two people quickly turns into something deeper. Over bass-heavy production and dreamy melodies, the two Puerto Rican artists deliver verses about choosing someone above all else, even when you never planned to. The result? A vulnerable anthem that hits harder than expected.

"Primer Lugar" video captures vulnerability.

From Puerto Rico to Spain: A Cinematic Visual

Directed by Latemilk, the “Primer Lugar” music video was filmed in Seville, Spain, using wide-open spaces and timeless architecture to match the song’s emotional tone. Carrión and Courtz drift through Seville’s bullring in motorcycles and a vintage Mercedes-Benz, dressed in sleek monochrome fits that mirror the track’s mood. The styling is minimal, the lighting golden, and the energy quietly intense.

The video doesn’t try too hard—it just lingers long enough to let the emotion breathe. It’s a visual that makes the vulnerability of the song feel grounded and real.

A Career Milestone for Omar Courtz

This collab hits at the right time for Omar Courtz, who’s having a breakthrough year. His debut album Primera Musa just broke into the Billboard Latin Albums Top 100, and he’s wrapping up a nearly sold-out U.S. tour. Eladio was one of the first major artists to co-sign Omar early in his career—this reunion feels like a full-circle moment, now with both artists in full stride.

Eladio’s Momentum Is Unstoppable

For Eladio Carrión, “Primer Lugar” comes on the heels of a high-powered summer. His latest album DON KBRN debuted in the Top 3 of Billboard’s Latin Albums chart and earned a spot on Rolling Stone Latin America’s Best Albums of 2025 (so far). He’s also been dominating live stages across Europe—from Barcelona to Ibiza—and recently appeared at the MLB Celebrity All-Star Game, sharing the field with the likes of Quavo, Wisin, Myke Towers, Storm Reid, and Terrell Owens.

And it’s not slowing down. Carrión’s DON KBRN World Tour kicks off August 27 in Charlotte, NC, and will hit 32+ cities around the globe, including New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Bogotá, Buenos Aires, and more.

“Primer Lugar” Is for Anyone Who Fell by Accident

The lyrics of “Primer Lugar” make it clear—this isn’t about flexing. It’s about choosing someone when you didn’t think you would. The track leans into that shift with subtle power, carried by Eladio’s grounded delivery and Omar’s melodic smoothness.

As trap continues to stretch its emotional range, “Primer Lugar” shows there's still room for softness, especially when it feels this real.
