Both “TENTACIÓN” and “ROCCO” embody Ralphie’s gifts as an artist who’s equally capable of creating idyllic Spanish pop tunes and dismantling them into sonic experiments that stretch those same songs to their limits in a single stroke.  Speaking about the new singles, Ralphie shares, "When I think about these songs, the only words that come to my mind are: enchante, I'm your charm, I'm your papi xulo. I feel a heart in my chest again." These two new songs follow his standalone singles from 2025 “PIRRI,” which arrived with a bizarrely captivating music video with Ralphie embodying an outlandish, flamboyantly dressed character singing along to the song in his bedroom, and the enchanting, lovesick “D’amor traficante.”  “TENTACIÓN” and “ROCCO” arrive ahead of Ralphie’s long-awaited hometown show at Movistar Arena in Madrid on February 20th, which his Rusia-IDK counterpart rusowsky sold out with a celebrated show last Fall. The new songs also hint at a larger project from Ralphie Choo, slated to arrive later this year.  The world is waiting with baited breath for what Ralphie Choo will do next. From his perch in Madrid, lit cigarette in hand, Ralphie took the music world by storm with his breakout 2023 debut album SUPERNOVA, which The FADER called “one of the most ambitious, vibrant, and thrilling debut albums in recent memory.” In the time since, he’s popped up sparingly through work with his Rusia-IDK compatriots like rusowsky on “BBY ROMEO,”as well as high-profile collaborations with the likes of Rosalía (“Omega”), and pablopablo and Carín León (“Eso Que Tú Llamas Amor”). Check out “TENTACIÓN” and “ROCCO” above and stay tuned for more music from Ralphie Choo coming soon.
