Data Insight

Marc Anthony is a singer first, but Opus complicates the usual interpreter story. He co-wrote all ten tracks under his legal name, Marco Antonio Muñiz, so his own pen sits on every song rather than none. The dominant creative force is his reunion with Sergio George, who produced the album with him and shares writing credit on six tracks, backed by the recurring writing team of Luis Fernando Castillo, Santiago Castillo, and Oscar Hernández. Outside writers surface on the singles, including Edgar Barrera and Juan Luis Londoño (Maluma) on 'Parecen Viernes' and Erika Ender on 'Tu Vida en la Mía.' Every song credits Muñiz, making this one of his more author-driven records even as Sergio George shapes the salsa arrangements.

Opus is a studio album by Marc Anthony, released on May 10, 2019 through Sony Music Latin. It is a full salsa record that reunited him with producer and arranger Sergio George, the collaborator behind much of his defining 1990s tropical work. Marc Anthony is the lead voice throughout, but on Opus he is also a credited co-writer on every track under his legal name Marco Antonio Muñiz, working alongside Sergio George and the writing and production team of Luis Fernando Castillo, Santiago Castillo, and Oscar Hernández. The album produced the hit singles 'Tu Vida en la Mía' and 'Parecen Viernes,' both of which reached number one on Billboard's Tropical Airplay chart. It was certified 2x Platinum in the Latin field by the RIAA and Gold in Mexico, extending Marc Anthony's long run as the dominant voice in modern salsa.
