Shakira is joyfully embracing her newfound freedom in her latest track, “Soltera,” an ode to the pleasures of being single.
The song exudes a tropical pop vibrancy, encapsulating a celebration of singledom and self-liberation. With its catchy chorus and sun-kissed rhythms, the track is a jubilant anthem for anyone reveling in independence, underscored by her unmistakable vocals and zestful lyrics that advocate enjoying life unapologetically free. “I have the right to misbehave/ To have a good time/ I’m on my own and now I can do what I want to do/ It’s good to be single,” she sings.
“Soltera” follows her latest release, Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, the album which crowned on Top Latin Albums and Latin Pop Albums, marking her as the first woman to secure No. 1 albums in four different decades.
On September 16, the Colombian powerhouse first teased the new single on Instagram, posting a scene of the music video at the LIV Miami nightclub. The video — which she captioned, “Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Jamaica and Venezuela present!” — featured a star-studded cameo with Anitta, Danna Paola, Lele Pons, and Winnie Harlow.
On Wednesday (Sept. 25), she shared another clip featuring herself aboard a yacht with Natty Natasha, Harlow, Pons, and more, all grooving to her signature moves. “I can’t believe you taught us that first move. Iconic, Shakira!,” commented Harlow on Shak’s IG.
