Good track but it's no Aute Cuture!

I like that this one is sung in Catalan. Might be a while since a song in Catalan is heard and talked about outside of Spain.
I also like how the first half is filled with brags about the luxury and the things she can afford now a la “7 rings” vs the second half of the song condemning it: “God deliver us from money, when we have it.”
Makes the song more interesting than it has any right to be.

She was pretty fucking amazing last night at Roskilde. Six star reviews all over. Her final four songs included Con Altura, Aute Cuture and Malamente. She has quite the catalogue already.

Glastonbury set was incredible as well - fourth on the bill on the fourth stage but it felt like we were watching the headliner. Initially I thought her voice might be quite weak live but hell no.
I didn't realise she had people to either side of her doing the handclaps throughout and the rhythms were even harder to pin down live.

Geez, she comes to Bern next (where I work) but to do a stupid teenage festival where you pay 120 dollars for a day pass. Hurts me.

New songs are not wowing me
I went back tho& listened to the older stuff and I get The buzz tho. This def feels like retroactive props for stuff that was missed the first time

By the press I mean obv ilx was on it 👁
So far, after the little I’ve heard, I’m surprised by the hype/genius thing. I’m willing to get excited by something new though so I’ll keep listening !

Perfect Rosalíaggaeton.

the (extremely wrong) criticisms of "con altura" upthread kind of apply to this for me
― dyl, Friday, 16 August 2019 02:34 (five years ago) link
it's all right tho
low key but romantic

def a full-throated foray into urbana this time, which isn't really what i look for in rosalia, but the hook has been in my head all day.
and it's way better if you watch the video

the little hum at the end of the yo x ti chorus is soooo good
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 22 August 2019 21:50 (five years ago) link
ozuna is a good foil for her on this song too, his voice is so boyish

Rosalía is great at ASMR. I think this should be interesting to watch even if you're not an ASMR devotee as she relates almost all of it to her music.

there's a trip-hoppy new single, "Dolerme"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuUa9ZQL28w
not sure what I think of it...feels pretty album-track-ish?
― rob, Tuesday, 24 March 2020 18:52 (four years ago) link
Just listened, I like it
― morrisp, Thursday, 26 March 2020 20:19 (four years ago) link
tbf very little pop music is working for me right now, will have to revisit TBD
― rob, Thursday, 26 March 2020 21:18 (four years ago) link
I like the verses and small experimentations but wish there was less autotune on the chorus.
― Nabozo, Saturday, 28 March 2020 16:44 (four years ago) link
^ i had listened to that song when posted here and liked it. felt like rushed recorded though. then it just came up in some radio station days ago, and brutally kicked in like its an eloquentely accomplished song. it is. i love all of the tough read Dolerme is, and the way she creaks and wavers and punches here. all verses are pure gold
― knife sharpening tips (gaudio), Wednesday, 27 May 2020 14:22 (four years ago) link
Dolerme still hasn't clicked for me, but I do dig this twitchy new one with Travis Scott, "TKN":

her song with billie eilish is incredible

I was so into her a few years ago, and feel like it all peaked with "Aute Cuture" (still an awesome track). nothing since has really caught my ear. I also watched a longform TV performance, and it was... not very good? (I know you have to take televised concerts with a grain of salt, but...)
― Home Pong (morrisp), Thursday, 28 January 2021 06:24 (three years ago) link
(I also acknowledge we're talking about a lot of one-offs and collabs, and maybe her next album will be hot stuff)
― Home Pong (morrisp), Thursday, 28 January 2021 06:35 (three years ago) link
i was kinda expecting an album to emerge out of all those singles, and hoping that it might recontextualise some of the lesser post-"aute cuture" singles, but that hasn't happened yet
hopefully when she gets around to a proper next album she'll be back to her peak
― ufo, Thursday, 28 January 2021 07:12 (three years ago) link
her 2019 run was still pretty great even if it wasn't all as strong as "con altura" and "aute cuture", it's only really last year that i started to feel a bit more disappointed
― ufo, Thursday, 28 January 2021 07:14 (three years ago) link
yeah as far as el guincho productions go, at the moment for me it's friendship ended with rosalía, now lous and the yakuza is my best friend
― monotony, Thursday, 28 January 2021 08:18 (three years ago) link
I haven't heard anything by her I like nearly as much as the first two songs posted in this thread.
― chap, Thursday, 28 January 2021 10:45 (three years ago) link
oh I agree about her last few singles being less fascinatingly good, but her vocal on the duet with Billie Eilish I bumped the thread for is fantastic. she’s good on the “Blinding Lights” remix as well. very much looking forward to her new stuff.

new song w/ dominican dembow artist tokischa is fantastic

“ft The Weeknd” has a certain dampening effect on my vibe
― juristic person (morrisp), Thursday, 11 November 2021 23:32 (two years ago) link
When I look at the brilliant work she was doing in 2017/2018, and then I look at everything she's done in the last three years, it's hard to believe it's the same person. Really dispiriting.

her 2019 output was good, just diminishing returns since then though

lmao someone hoovering coke in the first 10 seconds THE WEEKND IS HERE
― Murgatroid, Friday, 12 November 2021 00:34 (two years ago) link
yeah her run of singles in 2019 was as good or better than a lot of 'el mal qurer' imo, but since then she's really leaned into doing music w/ super famous ppl and it has been pretty bad. tho the song w/ toksicha is pretty great i think. this new song w/ the weeknd isn't bad exactly just kinda boring

― J0rdan S., Friday, 12 November 2021 00:41 (two years ago) link
You folks like pop that plays by the rules (whether in English or Spanish) a lot more than I do. Nothing she's done since El Mal Querer has been as weird or deliberately off-putting as that album. It's all been coloring inside the lines, stuff that seems calculatedly aimed at radio. Which is fine, get that money. But the videos that made me start this thread were amazing and her last three years of output have been...not amazing.
