Karol G’s latest album is an indulgence to her millions of fans across the globe. Listeners can enjoy a new side of her that they have never seen or listen to before. “The idea with each and every one of my songs is always to have the opportunity to experiment new sounds and bring something to my fans, to all of you who enjoy it in different ways,” she said.
The 30-year-old Medellín native pulls inspiration from country, hip-hop, and reggaeton, taking us all into a new musical realm that brings an eccentric experience, both visually and musically.
To celebrate the launch, Spotify teamed up with Karol G to create Tusa Airlines. With this unique virtual experience, fans can globe-trot with Karol G and virtually travel from the Dominican Republic to Spain and everywhere in between through her music.
