Colombian singer/songwriter Sebastián Yatra has officially dropped his highly-anticipated third studio album, Dharma.

“Dharma is part of life’s journey.” Sebastián writes about the album. “It is destiny. It is natural. It flows and it’s what is meant to be. It’s about accepting reality and receiving life for what it is. Dharma is a gift. The good, the bad, the happy, and the sad are depicted in the music. Although some songs are sad and others speak from happiness, they are all a part of our existence and love.”
