Sin Pijama

"Sin Pijama" written by Becky G, Natti Natasha, Nate Campany, Kyle Sherear, Rafael Pina, Daddy Yankee, Gaby Music, Mau y Ricky, Jon Leone and Camilo Echeverry.{{cite web|url=https://www.qobuz.com/ie-en/album/sin-pijama-becky-g-natti-natasha/q8uls6nbdh7za|title=Sin Pijama|publisher=Qobuz|access-date=May 14, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180515095414/https://www.qobuz.com/ie-en/album/sin-pijama-becky-g-natti-natasha/q8uls6nbdh7za|archive-date=May 15, 2018}} Gomez first wrote the song during a writing session with Mau y Ricky around two years prior to its release. According to her, she had to keep fighting and reminding her record label about "Sin Pijama", and it was not until she suggested a collaboration with Natasha that the track progressed.{{cite interview|last=G|first=Becky|subject-link=Becky G|interviewer=Christian Acosta|title=Becky G y Natti Natasha no saldrán sin pijamas en Premios Billboard 2018|last2=Natasha|first2=Natti|url=http://www.telemundo.com/entretenimiento/2018/04/24/becky-g-y-natti-natasha-no-saldran-sin-pijamas-en-premios-billboard-2018|accessdate=May 23, 2018|publisher=Telemundo|location=Las Vegas|date=April 24, 2018|subject-link2=Natti Natasha|language=es}} In a discussion with Natasha for Vevo, Gomez recalled, "When I heard that you loved the song and that you wanted to do your thing on it, I was like, relieved, 'She gets it.

She regards "Sin Pijama" as empowering for women owning their sexuality, a theme she believes is uncommon and should be accepted, specifically in Latin music.

According to Telemundo, the lyrics caused controversy for its explicit themes to which Becky G responded to in an interview for Suelta la Sopa, saying: "I am a woman; I am 21 years old and I am not the father of your children. If you do not want your daughter or your son to listen to my music, it's your decision and I respect it totally. But if you're going to let your daughter or your son listen to Maluma, Bad Bunny or Ozuna because they're men, that's the problem. There are so many things that I can not understand. It makes me very sad." Spanish singer Beatriz Luengo criticized the song's intended feminist message and claimed that it instead spoke of sexuality to only please men, citing it as "men writing what they would like women to say."{{cite web|url=https://www.eldiario.es/cultura/entrevistas/Beatriz-Luengo-feministas-hombre-sexualidad_0_772373769.html|title=Hay canciones supuestamente feministas en las que solo el hombre disfruta de la sexualidad|last=Zas Marcos|first=Monica|date=May 24, 2018|website=eldiario.es|language=es|access-date=May 26, 2018}}

"Sin Pijama" received positive reviews from music critics upon release. Suzette Fernandez of Billboard magazine said it proves "women are taking control in Latin music" and "can also dominate the urban genre."{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/latin/8359299/becky-g-natti-natasha-sin-pijama-video|title=Becky G & Natti Natasha Turn On the Heat in 'Sin Pijama' Video: Watch|last=Fernandez|first=Suzette|magazine=Billboard|date=April 20, 2018|access-date=May 14, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180505142745/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/latin/8359299/becky-g-natti-natasha-sin-pijama-video|archive-date=May 5, 2018}} She deemed the song "a girl power anthem". In Hoy, Sergio Burstein regarded its "duo between two famous ladies at the rhythm of reggaeton" as a first for Latin music and wrote, instead of pushing feminism in culture, it uses sex in advertising to show that "girls just wanna have fun."{{cite web|url=http://www.hoylosangeles.com/espectaculos/musica/hoyla-becky-g-y-natti-natasha-se-unen-para-quitarse-los-pijamas-mientras-fuman-marihuana-20180420-story,amp.html|title=Becky G y Natti Natasha lucen sin pijamas entre el humo y las burbujas|last=Burstein|first=Sergio|date=April 20, 2018|website=Hoy|language=es|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180421131330/http://www.hoylosangeles.com/espectaculos/musica/hoyla-becky-g-y-natti-natasha-se-unen-para-quitarse-los-pijamas-mientras-fuman-marihuana-20180420-story,amp.html|archive-date=April 21, 2018|url-status=live|access-date=May 15, 2018}} Similarly, Bárbara Figueroa González of Ronda magazine believed "Sin Pijama" marked "a great step for women in the urban genre."{{cite web|url=http://revistaronda.net/becky-g-y-natti-natasha-dicen-que-mejor-sin-pijama/|title=Becky G y Natti Natasha dicen que mejor 'Sin Pijama'|last=Figueroa González|first=Bárbara|date=April 20, 2018|website=Ronda|language=es|access-date=May 24, 2018}} La República called the track "catchy",{{cite web|url=https://larepublica.pe/espectaculos/1254670-mtv-miaw-2018-natti-natasha-becky-g-explosiva-presentacion-premios-sexy-mexico|title=MTV MIAW: Natti Natasha y Becky G y su explosiva presentación en los premios|date=June 4, 2018|website=La República|language=es|access-date=June 4, 2018}} while Clarín viewed it as "a sensual hit, provocative and catchy".{{cite web|url=https://www.clarin.com/espectaculos/musica/sensual-video-becky-natti-natasha_0_rkzlGiD2z.html|title=El sensual video de Becky G y Natti Natasha|date=April 20, 2018|website=Clarín|language=es|access-date=May 15, 2018}} EFE's David Villafranca wrote, "With a rhythm and a sexy air that directly resemble her with 'Mayores', 'Sin Pijama' allowed Becky G to expand her list of collaborations". Mike Wass of Idolator found the song "sexy" and said Becky G "has gone from strength to strength".

"Sin Pijama" became both Gomez and Natasha's third top 10 hit on the US Hot Latin Songs chart where it debuted at number 10, marking Natasha's highest debut on the chart. It received 5 million streams, 2 million audience impressions and sold 7,000 copies in its first week.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8454648/becky-g-natti-natasha-top-10-hot-latin-songs-sin-pijama|title=Becky G & Natti Natasha Collect Third Top 10 On Hot Latin Songs With 'Sin Pijama'|last=Bustios|first=Pamela|magazine=Billboard|date=May 4, 2018|access-date=May 15, 2018|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180505141946/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/8454648/becky-g-natti-natasha-top-10-hot-latin-songs-sin-pijama|archive-date=May 5, 2018}} The song rose to number four in its fifteenth week,{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/charts/latin-songs|title=Latin Music: Top Latin Songs|magazine=Billboard|accessdate=August 7, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180527135550/https://www.billboard.com/charts/latin-songs|archive-date=May 27, 2018}} and reached number 70 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart.

}}

The music video for "Sin Pijama" was directed by Venezuelan director Daniel Duran in a one-day shoot in New York. Gomez came up with the video concept nearly a year prior to sending it to Duran in a mobile note in January 2018 and revealed that "it took a lot of fight" for it to happen.{{cite web|url=http://la.eonline.com/andes/enews/becky-g-sigue-su-instinto-personal-y-triunfa/|title=¡Becky G sigue su instinto personal y triunfa!|date=April 25, 2018|website=E! Online Latino|language=es|access-date=May 20, 2018}} Although she had a different idea for the video's ending, Gomez said it was her favorite part because it represented reality and did not want sexuality to be the only thing she is associated with. The singer met Natasha for the first time on the music video set, but said they had "instant chemistry". In her synopsis note, she aspired for the fashion to resemble that of Victoria's Secret. The video includes a cameo appearance by American singer Prince Royce. It premiered on Gomez's Vevo channel at 00:00 PST on April 20, 2018.

The video begins with Royce and a friend at a recording studio where they talk about inviting Gomez and her friends to join them.{{cite web|url=http://lanacion.cl/2018/04/23/video-con-full-lenceria-natti-natasha-y-becky-g-estrenan-sin-pijama/|title=Con full lencería: Natti Natasha y Becky G estrenan 'Sin Pijama'|last=Gajardo|first=Felipe|date=April 23, 2018|website=La Nación|location=Chile|language=es|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180424003517/http://lanacion.cl/2018/04/23/video-con-full-lenceria-natti-natasha-y-becky-g-estrenan-sin-pijama/|archive-date=April 24, 2018|url-status=live|access-date=May 15, 2018}} Royce contacts Gomez through FaceTime to no answer and then sees on Twitter that they are having a girls night and begins to imagine about what the night would be like. The song and dream sequence then start with Gomez and Natasha entering a lavish mansion party in contrasting white and black dresses. Performance pieces take place around the mansion as they wear several lingerie outfits, faux fur and jewelry. The singers are seen drinking champagne, laying on a bed, playing pool, and partaking in a photo shoot and pillow fight.{{cite web|url=https://www.maxim.com/entertainment/sin-pijama-music-video-2018-4|title=Watch Natti Natasha and Becky G Strip Down to Lingerie in Sexy Music Video for 'Sin Pijama'|website=Maxim|date=April 24, 2018|accessdate=May 14, 2018}} In a plot twist, they are shown having a sleepover in pajamas with face masks on, eating popcorn before Gomez receives a FaceTime from Royce to her delight. According to her, this scene is intended as comic relief and a reflection of what actually happens at girl sleepovers.

The music video was well received by most critics. Writing for La Nación, Felipe Gerjado regarded it as "great sensuality", while Maxim magazine found it "sultry". La Opinión called the video "the most daring moment in Becky G's career."{{cite web|url=https://laopinion.com/2018/04/22/sin-pijama-becky-g-se-desnuda-y-sacude-youtube/|title=Sin pijama: Becky G se desnuda y sacude YouTube|date=April 22, 2018|website=La Opinión|language=es|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180422221230/https://laopinion.com/2018/04/22/sin-pijama-becky-g-se-desnuda-y-sacude-youtube/|archive-date=April 22, 2018|url-status=live|access-date=May 14, 2018}} Similarly, El Heraldo described the visual as "lace, lingerie and lots of skin", noting that the singers "show their most daring side."{{cite web|url=http://www.elheraldo.hn/entretenimiento/1172207-466/sin-pijama-el-atrevido-video-de-becky-g-y-natti-natasha-que|title=¡Sin pijama!

E! Online Latino said, "Becky G follows her personal instinct and triumphs." Conversely, Alberto Murcia of Los 40 believed the dream concept should have been excluded, questioning if "the only way a woman has to live her sexuality is within a man's fantasy?"

The video surpassed 100 million views on YouTube/Vevo on May 9, 2018 (less than 3 weeks after its premiere).{{cite press release|author=|title=Becky G & Natti Natasha's New Single 'Sin Pijama' Is Certified Platinum|url=http://www.nevarezpr.com/becky-g-natti-natashas-sin-pijama-is-certified-platinum-surpasses-100m-views/|location=Miami|publisher=Sony Music Latin|agency=Nevarez Communications|date=May 9, 2018|access-date=May 14, 2018}} It was the most-watched YouTube video in Colombia for April 2018, according to National-Report,{{cite web|url=http://www.national-report.com/lo-mas-visto-del-mes-en-colombia/|title=Lo mas visto del mes en YouTube|date=May 1, 2018|website=National-Report|language=es|access-date=May 17, 2018}} and reached number two on the US YouTube Songs chart published by Billboard.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/Becky-G/chart-history/youtube|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180526103446/https://www.billboard.com/music/Becky-G/chart-history/youtube|url-status=dead|archive-date=May 26, 2018|title=Becky G Chart History|magazine=Billboard|accessdate=June 6, 2018}} The music video reached one billion views in October 2018.
