"Mala Santa" is a song recorded by American singer Becky G. Written by Gomez, Luian Malavé Nieves, Edgar Semper, Xavier Semper, Kedin Maisonet and Pablo C. Fuentes, it was released by Kemosabe Records, RCA Records and Sony Music Latin on October 11, 2019, as the fifth and final single from Gomez's debut studio album of the same name.[1]

Due to the LP being a visual album, the song does not have an official video despite being the fifth single. Instead, it was released under the title "MALA SANTA (Álbum Visual)". The clip sees Gomez wearing two different body suits, one in white and the other in black, with a blue lighting background for the former and a red one for the latter. She performs the same choreography in one cut on both; these scenes are spliced in between each other.[2]

Live performance

Gomez performed the song live for the first time at the Latin American Music Awards of 2019 in a medley with her hit songs "Sin Pijama" and "Mayores".[3] She performed the medley again with a different arrangement at the LOS40 Music Awards 2019 about three weeks later.
