One of my favorite Latin music artists La Reina Rosalia covers the January 2021 issue of Vogue magazine, and inside the article she gives fans an update on the progress of her upcoming album.
She also talked about recording the album during the current pandemic, if if she’s dating anyone and more.
Check out some highlights from the interview, as well as some fierce photos of the 8-time Grammy winner shot by the legendary Annie Leibowitz below…
On Being Separated From Her Family In Barcelona During The Global Health Crisis:
“My sister is my best friend, and now it’ll be a year since I’ve seen her.”
On How The Current Climate Has Shaped Her Forthcoming Album:
“I needed to be at home. I needed all these hours, just doing this.” The record, expected out in 2021, is a constant work in progress; the night before, she was up writing lyrics in her hotel room.
On Status Of The LP:
“This is the moment, I think, where everything is flowing, I’m finishing the songs, and it feels different than the beginning of the year. Now I’m closing the cycle of these recordings, and I’m really happy with them.”
On Whether She’s Seeing Anyone:
“But imagine! How? I compose, I produce, I write lyrics, I write the top lines, I play instruments. I swear to you, to do this, you have to apply all of your senses to it.”
On The Industry Needing To Uplift Women More:
“How many people talk about how Victoria Monét writes songs the way she does; how many people talk about Missy Elliott producing her own music? I hope with all of my heart that the new generation of women open a path up so that things are different. I’ll always render that figure of a strong woman before anything,” she tells me.”
