Puerto Rican singer Yandel and Colombian producer Sky also appear as featured artists in the album.

The album spanned eight singles, "Nieve", "Castigo", "Ferxxo 100", "Normal", "Si Te La Encuentras Por Ahí", "Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo", "Prohibidox" and "XQ Te Pones Así", all released through 2022. Commercially, the album was highly successful, receiving certifications in the United States, Spain and Argentina. At the Billboard 200 chart, it peaked at number 188, being Feid's first appearance in the chart.

Background[edit]

On 19 August 2022, Feid released the title track of the album as a single to celebrate his 30th birthday. The same day, he announced that the album was set to be released later in the year on December.[3] On September, Feid announced via his Instagram account that the album had been leaked, deciding to advance the release of the album.[4] He also announced that on 1 December, the original date of release for the album, he would release another album as a continuation with the songs that did not make the first project.[5] Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo Te Pirateamos el Álbum was ultimately released on 14 September 2022, its name makes reference to the incident, translating to "Happy Birthday Ferxxo, We Pirated the Album".[6] Similar to the title, the cover art for the album also alludes to the leak, featuring a WhatsApp conversation about it.[7] The cover was designed by Manuela Villada, Feid's sister, who has designed the cover for his previous albums.[8]

About the leak, Feid said "I was incomplete, it was a disaster and I felt anger, but that feeling lasted about half an hour, after that, I spoke to my mom to see how we could take advantage of the situation, and luckily, we reacted quickly". In response to the leak, the songs were mastered and mixed in less that a day to prepare the release of the project.[8] It features production from Colombian producer Sky Rompiendo, who had previously worked with Feid in Inter Shibuya – La Mafia (2021), as well as from producers Jowan, Pardo, Federico Vindver and Rio Root, plus mixing and engineering by Wain, Mosty and Rolo.[7] All the songs were written by Feid and producers except "Intro", which contains people singing "Happy Birthday to You" in Spanish, Mildred J. Hill and Patty Hill are credited as writers.[9]

To promote the album, Feid embarked on a tour through United States titled U.S. Trip, produced by Live Nation. Initially intended to be in small clubs, following the success of the album it was decided that the tour would take place in larger venues.[10] The tour spanned fourteen cities starting on 13 October at Buckhead Theatre in Atlanta and ending on 25 November at The Belasco in Los Angeles.[11]

On 1 December 2022, he released Sixdo, a six-song EP composed of songs originally intended for Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo Te Pirateamos el Álbum.[5] It features collaborations with Zion & Lennox, Ak4:20, Taiko, Jory Boy and DJ Premier.[12]

On 4 March 2022, "Nieve" was released as the first single for the album.[13] On 13 May, a second single titled "Castigo" was released.[14] The following month, "Ferxxo 100" was released as the third single on 3 June.[15] All three songs appeared on the Colombia Songs chart, with the latter peaking at number three.[16]

"Normal" was released on 8 July as the fourth single.[17] It topped the Colombia Songs chart and peaked at number 42 and 75 at the Hot Latin Songs and the Billboard Global 200 charts, respectively.[16][18][19] A fifth single titled "Si Te La Encuentras Por Ahí" was released on 5 August.[20] The title track was released on 19 August as the sixth and final single for the album.[21] It also topped the Colombia Songs chart and peaked at number nine in Spain.[16][22]

Ingrid Fajardo wrote that "Feid’s songwriting prowess and crisp lyricism give this album a different and unique magic; the earworm singles also connected with Gen Z through social media, resulting in many of 2022’s most powerful anthems".[27]
