9. Camila Cabello - Havana (ft. Young Thug)

In 2016 Camila Cabello departed from the American girl group Fifth Harmony due to creative differences and went to release singles as an artist on her own. After a few solo tracks, Cabello hit gold with the 2017 release of Havana, which became an instant triumph.

The song consists of Camila Cabello singing about a romantic relationship she once had while in Cuba, paying homage to her birth country. The fact that Cabello incorporates elements of her culture into these popular western songs always excites listeners setting her apart from other pop performers.

With over a billion Youtube views and streams, Havana has established itself as a Latin pop phenomenon thanks to its catchy hook and jazzy instruments such as trumpets and saxophones. Now in 2022, Cabello still releases music that radios love to play, with her most recent hit being Bam Bam with English singer Ed Sheeran. Cabello's career isn't slowing down, and fans are more excited than ever to see what she has in store for them next....
