After a five-month wait and just under a month into her tour, Rosalía, the Spanish singer, released her highly anticipated new song ‘Despechá’. The track instantly generated excitement among millions of fans eagerly awaiting the summer release.
Rosalía has recently gained immense popularity on social media and digital platforms, captivating audiences with her unique musical style and emerging as a fashion icon for her young fans.
The song, inspired by tropical rhythms, had been eagerly anticipated by fans attending her latest tour concerts. The singer received numerous pleas from fans, and finally decided to release the song.
The announcement took place during her performance in Bilbao last Thursday when Rosalía shared that ‘Despechá’ would be released that night, saying “si Dios quiere” (if God wills it). These words ignited enthusiasm among users of Twitter and TikTok, showcasing their excitement for the song.
“There are countless ways to feel ‘Despechá’, whether it be through madness or audacity, walking without reservations or regrets. This is the mindset from which I create music, the same place I started and will continue until God decides otherwise,” expressed the artist.
The Origin of ‘Despechá’
During the early stages of her tour in Almería, the artist introduced the song as part of a collection of unreleased tracks. Initially, Rosalía referred to the song as ‘De Lao a Lao’, but after seeking input from her followers, she settled on the title ‘Despechá’.
Expressing gratitude in a post, Rosalía acknowledged the influence of music from various regions she had explored in her travels, including the Dominican Republic. Artists such as Fefita La Grande, Juan Luis Guerra, and Omega have served as sources of inspiration, shaping the creation of this song.
