Too often I seem to play songs with male artists, but there are so many great female artists in latin music that I wanted to do a post featuring some of the music these women are making.
I started off with the Barcelona-born flamenco pop singer Rosalía whose Malamente is nominated for best song of the year for the Latin Grammys. I love how she fuses flamenco with pop, reggaetón, and R&B here. The staccato sound of hand claps and Rosalía’s smooth voice draw you into her story.
Other favorites on this list that are different from more main stream latin pop include Amárrame by indie pop Chilean singer Mon Laferte, and the final track on this list, Caprichosa, by Spanish singer/songwriter Beatriz Luengo featuring Mala Rodríguez.
