Marcriá

Marcriá is the second studio album by the Puerto Rican singer RaiNao. It was released on May 25, 2026, through Rimas Entertainment, two years after her debut studio album, Capicú. RaiNao and her principal collaborator Wiso Rivera led its production, working with a rotating group of co-producers. The album features Omara Portuondo, Cultura Profética, Andy Montañez, El Laberinto del Coco, Solo Fernández, and Frido Vargas. RaiNao conceived Marcriá as a sequence of "sensory treatments" inspired by attending a school for children with visual impairments during her childhood. Its title combines the Spanish word malcriada with a stylized expression meaning "raised by the sea". Musically, it expands her pop, R&B, and reggaeton foundation through salsa, Latin jazz, bomba, plena, bolero, Brazilian funk, and Cuban guaguancó. The songs follow an emotional progression from infatuation and euphoria toward rejection, anger, and mortality. The singles "sofocón" and "GRIS" preceded the album, whose visual campaign included color visualizers, song-by-song microstories, and the companion short film Oídos que ven GRIS. RaiNao also promoted it with an NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert.
