"Mayores" (transl. "Older Ones") is a song by American singerBecky G and Puerto Rican rapperBad Bunny. Written by Mario Caceres, Servando Primera, Saul Castillo, Bad Bunny, and Patrick Ingunza, it was released byKemosabe,RCA Records andSony Music Latin as thelead single from Gomez's debutstudio albumMala Santa on July 14, 2017.^[2][3]

"Mayores" topped the charts inSpain,Ecuador,Chile,Paraguay,Peru,Bolivia,Honduras,Mexico,Nicaragua,Panama andEl Salvador, while peaking at number 3 on theBillboardHot Latin Songs chart.^[4] The music video for the song was released onYouTube on July 13, 2017, and has accumulated over 2.5 billion views on YouTube as of October 2025.^[5]

Gomez explained that the song originated as a "joke" after having confirmed her relationship with soccer playerSebastian Lletget, who is five years older than her. She started using the hashtag "#6DaysTillMAYORES" onTwitter which eventually started trending. A number became lower with each passing day, until it reached "#MAYORESOutNow".

"Mayores" debuted at number 12 on theHot Latin Songs chart, making it Gomez's highest debut peak position on that chart. The song eventually peaked at number 3 on the charts.

The song also debuted at number 72 on the SpanishPROMUSICAE chart. It rose to number 4 four weeks later, making it her highest-peaking position, surpassing the number 37 peak of "Shower". It later reached number one.

The song eventually charted on theBillboard Hot 100, peaking at number 74. This marked Gomez’s fourth appearance on the chart in over two years, following her top-twenty hit “Shower” (2014), her collaboration withCher Lloyd, “Oath” (2012), which peaked at number 73, and “Can't Stop Dancin'” (2014), which reached number 88 in early 2015. The song also earned Bad Bunny his first entry on the Hot 100.

The music video, filmed inLos Angeles, was uploaded on Gomez'sVevo account on July 13, 2017. As of October 2025, it has received over 2.5 billion view onYouTube.^[6]

The clip sees Gomez lying on a couch spliced with scenes of her and Bad Bunny at a bar. Casper Smart, playing an older, wealthy man, enters the bar and is attracted to Gomez. He takes her to his house as Bad Bunny raps his verses at the bar. These scenes are also cut with the singers performing on the roof of theHotel Rosslyn Annex at night. Gomez seduces Smart and handcuffs him to the bed. She plays with his watch before getting off the bed and leaving with a bag full of money. Bad Bunny appears to be waiting for her, and they kiss before getting in the car. The video ends with the duo are driving off.

Due to the song becoming a huge success, Gomez was invited to perform it at several radio stations and during interviews. She sang the song regular and acoustic at iHeart Radio Mi Música. She also sang it in Spain in La Vida Moderna and Sale el Sol in acoustic, and regular on Operación Triunfo. Her performance on the latter garnered some attention due to a change in the lyrics at the request of the producers due to them thinking they were "too sexual". Although Gomez agreed, she later stated it bothered her and said she accepted "out of respect" and because it was "a great opportunity", but believes that it wouldn't be done to a man, listingOzuna andEnrique Iglesias as examples.^[7]

Gomez performed the song with Bad Bunny at theLatin American Music Awards of 2017, which she also hosted; the performance was later uploaded to YouTube and has garnered over 91 million views.^[8] The song was included on her setlist as an opening act forFifth Harmony's 2017 PSA Tour and on her own tour in 2018. She sang the song last in her performance atViña del Mar on March 2, 2019. Gomez and Bad Bunny performed the song onX 100Pre Tour on March 8 and April 22, 2019.^[9] Gomez included "Mayores" in three medleys: the first at the2019 Latin American Music Awards together with "Sin Pijama" and "Mala Santa", before receiving the Extraordinary Evolution Award fromPitbull. The second time was at the2019 MTV Europe Music Awards, this time with "24/7", a track fromher debut album replacing "Mala Santa".^[10] The third time was at theLOS40 Music Awards 2019 with "Mala Santa" being brought back. All three performances had different arrangements. In the latter performance Gomez rewrote Bad Bunny's verse with lyrics from her "side of the relationship", including a reference to her feature in "Dura (Remix)" withDaddy Yankee,Natti Natasha, and the rapper.^[11] Gomez performed the song at theCoachella 2023 on April 14 and 21, 2023.^[12]
