Among those featured on the single are Jennifer Lopez, Gloria Estefan, On Your Feet! star Ana Villafañe (who played Estefan in the Broadway musical), EGOT winner Rita Moreno, Broadway-bound John Leguizamo, Hamilton alum Anthony Ramos, and Miranda's frequent collaborator Alex Lacamoire.
The song begins with lyrics to West Side Story’s “Maria”: “Say it loud and there’s music playing; say it soft and it’s almost like praying.” As the song progresses, the various artists alternate as they recite all 78 towns in the U.S. island territory.
