Royce, Lopez, and Pitbull performed the song on the Season 14 finale of "American Idol" last month, The Wrap reported. Since then, it has placed first on iTunes' Latino chart and is steadily rising to the pop charts.
The English-language version of "Back It Up" comes as the second single of Royce's upcoming English debut album, The Wrap noted. "Stuck On a Feeling," which featured rapper Snoop Dogg, was the first track to be unveiled from the record. The album is set to be released later this summer from RCA Records.
"The sound is a combination of many types of music . . . pop, urban R&B and of course, I incorporated some Latin flavor," Royce, whose real name is Geoffrey Royce Rojas, said of his upcoming album, Direct Lyrics reported. "No bachata on this album, but I am working on my next Spanish album as well, so the bachata fans will have plenty of new music from me coming."
Royce is set to accompany Ariana Grande on the latter's Honeymoon Tour this summer. The tour's summer leg will kick off on July 16, 2015 at Amalie Arena in Tampa and will end on October 15 at El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas, Billboard wrote.
His well-known Latin songs, such as "Darte Un Beso," "Corazon sin Cara," and "Stand By Me," prompted the artist to pursue an English crossover in 2015, Latina reported..
"[Fans] are going to have a pleasant surprise," he told Latina, speaking about his new music. "It's a whole other side of me."
Since scoring a record deal in 2010, the 26-year-old singer has released three studio albums with a special focus in the bachata genre, Direct Lyrics noted. When asked what inspired him to attempt a crossover in the English music scene, Royce revealed that he doesn't want to limit himself in the Spanish market.
"I am never about taking the easy way towards anything . . . it is about doing what feels right. For me, the most natural choice is to do exactly this - to have a career in my native language, as well as in Spanish," Royce told the news outlet. "It actually never occurred to me to only sing in only one language. Why limit myself -- I am bilingual."
