Multi-award-winning singer-songwriter and global Latin music idol OZUNA joins forces with the unapologetic and multi-faceted Dominican rapper TOKISCHA in his new single 'Somos Iguales,' a contagious danceable track that invites the listener to lose their inhibitions to the sound of a fusion of hot Caribbean rhythms.

Featuring a laid-back groove, the song is accompanied by a camcorder-style music video inspired by Townes Van Zandt.
