Rosalía - MOTOMAMI + [2LP Clear]

MOTOMAMI + is the expanded take on Rosalía's genre-melting 2022 album, here on two clear LPs in a gatefold jacket with a booklet and poster tucked inside.

Her third album, and her first for Columbia, followed the flamenco reinvention of El Mal Querer with something wilder and harder to pin down. Rosalía co-produced it with a crew that included Noah Goldstein, Tainy, El Guincho and Pharrell Williams, and the record jumps between reggaeton, bachata, flamenco, jazz and glitchy electronics, often within a single track. It won the Latin Grammy for Album of the Year and the Grammy for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album.

"Saoko" opens with distorted bass and a defiant chant about transformation, setting the tone for a record that refuses to sit still. "La Fama" is a slinky bachata duet with The Weeknd about the seductive dangers of fame, while "Candy" turns a heartbreak into a hazy, melancholic reggaeton slow jam. "Bizcochito" is a sugar-rush of playground chants and minimal beats, deceptively simple and impossible to forget.

MOTOMAMI + captures one of the most exciting artists in pop at her most fearless and playful. Pressed on clear vinyl and packaged with its poster and booklet, it makes an eye-catching centerpiece for any collection.
