The director said on twitter that "Try Everything" is amazing, catchy and high energy.

Another "Preyda" ad (A.K.A. Shakira) Gazelle is a famous pop star in Zootopia.
Gazelle is one of the few characters to actually wear shoes. Ironically, Shakira, the famous pop star who voices Gazelle, doesn't like wearing shoes when she's performing.

Interesting news about Try Everything... Couple of days ago that I heard the Guetta, Sia & Fetty song, two thoughts came to mind: Shakira should work with Sia because both have strong and peculiar voices, which are not easy to understand but can emote a lot, and that Shaki should have a song with the tropical house sound of the moment! I mean, she could naturally pull a song with the Caribbean infused type of electronic music is now more popular! Then later that day I saw the big NBC commercial of Rio 2016 and thought that Shaki should definitely be on the lookout for another sport-related anthem next year. I know her peak days are most likely begins her, but I'm always excited about her material and hopeful she can have another hit in the US. She's too good to have so few.

I agree, I love Sia's voice. She likely understands how to utilize Shakira's vocals better than any other producer.
She's been away longer than usual due to her pregnancies, but she'll be back. She has to, she still has a couple albums and tours she has to do for Live Nation. The good thing about Shakira is that she's still in high demand in the Latin world. Her last single with Mana debut at #1 on hot Latin, airplay and sales. Her Latin career will fuel various attempts at English hits. Who knows if she'll have more English hits, but you can be sure she'll keep trying. Another example is Enrique, due to his Spanish career he keeps releasing tons of English material. Flopping/under-performing is never that big of a deal because they have something else to fall back on. Most of the aging pop stars don't have that luxury. For them, if the era under-performs it just quickly ends.

And another thought I had last month, after the AMAs Alanis performance and the release of the collectors edition of Jagged Little Pill was that Shakira should've also done some sort of celebration of the 20th anniversary of Pies Descalzos. That was such a huge era not only for her but in general for Latin female pop artists. It was sort of the Latin version of JLP. So many great and varied singles one after the other with lyrics that covered from cheesy to lovely to social issues. Her rebel image with her unique strong voice and top notch production brought a new excitement in Latin pop music. It was so refreshing! I loved Estoy Aqui (my song of that year) and then I was real fan after the third single... And a Stan by her second international album :) Would love a reissue with demos, her Portuguese and English versions of the singles, the videos and maybe some of her candid interviews. I know. Dreaming probably

The song sounds unfinished to me. Somethings not right about it. The layers are mixed very oddly

Shakira is filming something in Spain. Knowing her, its probably another commercial: So, we likely will get a Spanish version of "Try Everything."

Really disappointed in the song. I know its just for a Disney film, but its dated and too generic, even for my taste Sounds like a B-side from 2009

She really gives zero fucks. It's crazy because I really think she could have been one of the huge stars of our day if she really put in the work or at least put a little less time in between albums. Laundry Service was absolutely huge and then Hips Don't Lie was a literal cultural worldwide phenomenon in 2006- I think she needed to release another album late 2007 to keep the ball rolling. Then she could have released the She Wolf album exactly how it is in late 2009 or early 2010 because that album is pop perfection and should have slayed- I would say 2010 only because that electronic sound really started to come into the foreground that year and that album was such a perfect mix of her middle-eastern/spanish flavor with electronic sounds that it would have slayed with the right promotion and timing. Her career was and is tragically mismanaged.

"I've really begun to enjoy it, although the beginning of an album is always a bit intimidating. I think it's too soon to say when I'll release it or to identify the sound — my albums tend to have an eclectic sound anyway — but it will be mostly Spanish, and a couple of songs in English. I've already written in both." Shakira Link

Her career was and is tragically mismanaged. Its not her management. Shakira does what she wants. The problem with Shakira is that she doesn't crave attention like other pop stars. She enjoys being a pop star and enjoys her private life just as much, if not more. Between albums she requires one sabbatical year where she does nothing. A full year! That's why there's big gaps between her eras. Then she got pregnant and that sabbatical got elongated. She's had lots of managers that saw her becoming as big as Madonna. She easily could have gotten that big, but the problem is that everyone wanted that for her except Shakira. She's happy where she's at. She has a good career and she's always left time to focus on family life. As fans we can look back and complain, Shakira on the other hand wouldn't change a thing. Freddy Demann wanted Shakira to get an album out ASAP after LS. But, she refused. That's what lead to their breakup. In the end, Shakira got what she wanted. It's impossible for Shakira to get huge outside Latin America without being out there constantly. Everyone knows that, but Shakira is happy with what she has. Here's some inside info I heard from someone that was close to her. As we all know, Antonio just wanted to milk as much money out of Shakira as possible. Antonio said he never gave her kids because he knew that once she got pregnant that Shakira's career would be put on hold. He felt she valued family way too much and would put her career on the back burner. I heard that before she met Pique! Boy was that spot on. Shakira is too family orientated to be able to put her kids on the back burner to focus on a new era. I do expect new music, but I have no idea when they will be able to force her to tour. I get the feeling even a lawsuit from Live Nation wouldn't be able to force her to tour. She will one day, when she's ready.
