Ozuna's tracks "Cambio" and "Muito Calor", the former a collaboration with fellow Puerto Rican artist Anuel AA and the latter a collaboration with Brazilian singer Anitta, were also expected to be on the album, but did not make the track listing.

[7] Gary Suarez of Rolling Stone wrote that "after the project's initial announcement and subsequent months of release date silence, the phrase "Nibiru: Coming Soon" began to take on meme-like properties.

More importantly, it created grand, perhaps unreasonable expectations that the Latin superstar regrettably hasn't entirely lived up to."

He continued, "Those hoping for alien perreo hybrids assuredly won't find them on Nibiru, and admittedly such reggaeton futurism is better suited to the likes of Tomasa Del Real and her underground ilk.

But while the album doesn't quite reach moonwalk status, Ozuna's progressive steps demonstrated here towards perfecting his popwise craft warrant further analysis and repeat listening right here on Earth.
