Rosalía Vila Tobella, who is better known mononymously as Rosalía, is a Spanish singer and songwriter. She's known for her modern interpretations of flamenco music. In 2017, she released her debut album Los Ángeles, which was preceeded by the single "Catalina" and it also included the song "De Plata". Later that year, the track "Aunque Es De Noche" came out, which the lyrics were adapted from the poem "Qué Bien Sé Yo La Fonte" written by San Juan De La Cruz in 1578 and was sung by Enrique Morente. A year later, her critical acclaim sophomore album El Mal Querer was released, preceeded by the singles "Malamente", "Pienso En Tu Mirá" and "Di Mi Nombre", as well as "Bagdad" (which samples "Cry Me A River" by Justin Timberlake) and "De Aquí No Sales". She also has collaborated with J Balvin in "Brillo", which is included on his fifth album Vibras, and James Blake in "Barefoot In The Park", which is included on his fourth album Assume Form.

Finally took a listen to this album this weekend after hearing "MALAMENTE" on Good Girls and "DE AQUÍ NO SALES" on The OA and liking both. Then I listened about three more times – it's good!

Was wondering if this thread would ever be made. Incredible album El Mal Querer !!
She's even more incredible live. I got to see her front row at Coachella and my god... I really want her to break because her talent is IMMENSE! Everyone in the crowd kept cheering for her as she was singing and slaying the choreo.
If you get the chance to see her, I highly recommend it.
This is also the first spanish album I've ever been obsessed with. The whole record is a journey.

The praise for El Mal Querer. That said, I still can't get enough of that album because it's amazing from the beginning until the end. She's even more incredible live. I got to see her front row at Coachella and my god... I really want her to break because her talent is IMMENSE! Everyone in the crowd kept cheering for her as she was singing and slaying the choreo. She's definitely an artist I really want to see her live. I was aware she came to Latin America before Coachella, but it was only for festivals in Argentina and Chile (Lollapalooza) and Mexico (Ceremonia), so I hope she comes back again and includes Peru as well.

I heard Con altura at a party last night. I was gladly surprised that some of my friends knew most of the lyrics.

Rosalía is the cover story for the next issue of Fader magazine and there is a full article and photoshoot. I would copy and paste it all but it's long and the formatting gets messed up. The photos are absolutely stunning. www.thefader.com/2019/05/29/rosalia-cover-story

Rosalía has been signed to an exclusive, worldwide co-publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing Group. On making the announcement, UMPG Chairman and CEO Jody Gerson said: "As an artist, Rosalía is totally in control and manifesting her own destiny. Beyond writing, producing and performing her own songs, she has created a new hybrid of flamenco music and is breaking cultural boundaries. You know greatness when you see it – when you watch Rosalía; you know she is an important voice. She will undoubtedly have an extraordinary career and UMPG looks forward to supporting her journey." Rosalía added the following: (translated from Spanish)"I want to thank Jody for believing and trusting me, as a composer it is an honor to have signed with Universal Music Publishing. I feel very happy to be part of this house that has so many artists that I admire and in this new stage in my career, I will give the best of me."

Her album last year was no doubt one of my favorites of the year. Loved it! But all the stand-alone singles she's been releasing this year are not having the same magic for me.

I think she is following too many trends in the genre at the moment. That may be label/management. I saw her perform at an intimate showcase last year and was BLOWN away. She has the potential to be the next huge star. She actually reminded me of Beyonce more than anyone else has in the last 15 years. The weird thing is, she is into a more indie vibe which I think her team should capitalize on? She has so much potential. I would cross her over with a strong English language album produced by Jamie XX, Dev Hynes or something. These singles are "fun" but I'm not reading the true artist out of them.

I'm seeing her in October here in Austin at the ACL festival. :) Looking fw to it! I agree with you, Adam, although I'm not familiar with the artists you mention (but assume what kind they are).

I have liked the standalones a lot but they do feel a bit like a trend-chase.
Then again, "Con Altura" is easily her biggest hit yet so the different direction will probably stick.
Not in love with the new single tbh. Might grow on me over time.
