“One of the most ambitious albums of the decade — regardless of genre… There seems to be no end to Rosalía's sense of curiosity and thirst for experimentation…  MOTOMAMI is an album to enjoy in its many grand details and outbursts of genius - morsel by morsel, moment by moment.” Grammy.com

“MOTOMAMI is a masterpiece… Brave, Bawdy, and Completely Uncompromising…
Genres are a thing of the past; there’s room for everything here…an innovative, avant-garde work that challenges commercial music as we know it.”  – 
Rolling Stone

 “Dazzling… the wildly diverse Motomami  is as musically innovative an album as we’ve heard in the past year... [and] it’s hard to think of any that are based around such a jaw-droppingly talented singer… it moves Rosalía toward the front line of today’s musical innovators”.- Variety

“a world-building pop icon... her breadth of creative ambition has made Rosalía one of the most watched, worshiped, scrutinized, copied and counted on young artists in the world.” – NY TIMES

“Rosalía is a visionary… MOTOMAMI represents what is new and exciting about pop music in 2022… her most experimental release yet… something thoroughly modern… she’s warping the pop universe …with glorious results.”  – Wall St. Journal

“The Year of Rosalia: How [she] defied convention and rewired pop … Motomami’ put the gas on Rosalía’s ascent to worldwide pop stardom…‘Rosalía is the truth,’ Grammy-winning producer and composer Noah Goldstein told The Times. ‘I was floored when I first heard her sing. She can go light and airy, or sometimes, beautiful and aggressive… ‘She’s a creative genius…[that] nobody else in pop can touch” – Los Angeles Times


About Rosalía
Rosalía is a transformational multi-genre music artist who has quickly “leapt to the forefront of the global pop landscape” on the strength of her innovative musical fusions and distinctive style.  She has repeatedly shattered barriers for both female and Spanish language artists, while being widely hailed for her musicianship in and out of the studio. Welcomed as “a boundary-breaking modern masterpiece … that has resonated like a shockwave,” Rosalía’s milestone breakout album “El Mal Querer” meshed an innovative fusion of classic Flamenco and other timeless music styles of Spain, with her phenomenal vocal capability and strong influences from industrial visual arts, female empowerment, fashion and choreography. Highlights of the album’s universal acclaim saw Rosalia garner her first GRAMMY Award, the historic first-ever Best New Artist Grammy nomination for a Spanish language artist, eight Latin Grammys, including Album of the Year, and placement on numerous Best of year and Best of Decade lists. In 2022, Rosalía released her landmark album MOTOMAMI which she wrote, performed, recorded and executive produced – extending her foundational sound into a more global sonic canvas with elements of contemporary Latin-American rhythms. R&B, hip-hop, hints of jazz and electronic beats.  The album’s highly-anticipated arrival was met with rapturous critical and commercial acclaim, as press around the world quickly dubbed MOTOMAMI, “a visionary masterpiece as provocative and risky as it is creative…the most thrilling, forward-thinking music we’ll hear all year…[and] one of the most ambitious albums of the decade — regardless of genre”. As the fall of 2022 begins, MOTOMAMI continues to be ‘the #1 critically acclaimed album of the year’ according to Metacritic, and Rosalía has dazzled fans and critics with  her game-changing “MOTOMAMI WORLD TOUR  - which The Washington Post recently praised by saying:

"In concert, Rosalía shows us what living in pop’s future sounds like ... It was hard to envision a pop concert more stunning, more visceral, more fastidious, more all-out wowee than this one, and maybe that was exactly the point: In Rosalía’s music, futurism doesn’t feel like anticipation or prophecy so much as a test of our temporal condition’s tensile strength, a means of living out the fullness of our imaginations.... And if the lights went up leaving your dizzy ears wondering what they had just experienced, maybe it was best to try to figure out what they hadn’t. This wasn’t your everyday information-age maximalist popstuff. It wasn’t worldly mood boarding. It wasn’t trend forecasting, or klepto flossing or tea leaf browsing. This was something far more intimate, something futuristic and precious, and inextricably so — a new kind of pop music that seems fully aware of life’s unfathomable breadth, as well as the fact that we’re each given only so much future to live."
