DESPECHÁ - ROSALÍA

2022 Review: ROSALÍA's MOTOMAMI remains the most switched on pop sound of this year.

The variation of sounds on ROSALÍA's latest album MOTOMAMI from one track to the next is truly impressive, and the album as a whole is a stunning whirlwind of ideas and experiments. It's sad when it wants to be sad and hype when it wants to be hype, and it just feels like the future of pop.

One of the standout singles from this album is "DESPECHÁ," which was released in July of this year in anticipation for the deluxe edition of her third album "MOTOMAMI." This track is just pure fun, and it's the kind of feel-good and freeing sound that I think we all need right now. With the resurgence of dance music and the popularity of reggaeton and Latin music as a whole, ROSALÍA and a handful of other artists have truly delivered this year.
