Better Late Than Never Lyrics & Tracklist - Romeo Santos & Prince Royce

Better Late Than Never is a collaborative bachata album by Romeo Santos and Prince Royce, released on November 28, 2025, under Sony Music Latin. It brings together “El Rey de la Bachata” and “El Príncipe de la Bachata” for a 13‑track project that mixes classic, guitar‑driven bachata with more experimental, R&B‑ and Afro‑influenced touches, all centered on love, heartbreak, regret, and second chances.​​

The album includes the title track “Better Late Than Never,” where the narrator realizes too late that he has lost the love of his life and begs for another chance, encapsulating the album’s concept of arriving at growth and change after many failed attempts. Other stand‑out songs often mentioned in coverage are “Dardos,” which blends bachata with Afrobeat and tropical flavors, and “Jezebel,” with strong R&B influences, plus cuts like “Ay San Miguel,” which draws on Dominican palo rhythms, and “Menor,” featuring rising artist Dalvin La Melodía.​​

A big part of the story around Better Late Than Never is how long it took to happen: Santos and Royce reportedly tried recording together several times over the years but shelved earlier songs because they didn’t feel special enough, choosing instead to wait until the chemistry and material were right. When they finally committed to a full joint album, they co‑wrote several tracks (including “Mi Plan,” “Better Late Than Never,” “Jezebel,” and “Loquita Por Mí”) and were careful to balance vocals so that neither artist overshadowed the other, presenting the project as a true meeting of equals rather than just guest features.
