What does this launch mean?
Buzzy
In Shakira’s words, releasing this EP is “a tribute to the evolution of my music and the bond I have built with you” (fans).
The album Pies Descalzos marked his leap to international recognition with its mix of pop, rock and introspective lyrics.
Ten years later, Oral Fixation cemented her as a global star with hits in English and Spanish. Now, 2025 returns to reinterpret that story.
In short, this Shakira release is not just “another EP”, but a musical narrative that connects past, present and future.
For the U.S. Hispanic community, it’s a perfect time to celebrate with her, share the music and rediscover classics with new energy.
Relevance to the Hispanic community in the U.S.
The impact of these albums is clear:
The original albums have collectively totaled more than 6.1 billion global plays, of which more than 955 million have come from listeners in the United States.
For the U.S. Hispanic reader, this represents several keys:
An opportunity to rediscover Shakira, a Latin icon who has transcended generations.
A project that reinforces the importance of Latin music on global platforms.
The release of a Spotify exclusive EP that can be referred to as a “digital event”, ideal to follow from the US.
