The Catalan pop star is currently working on the follow-up to her Latin Grammy Award-winning album, 2022’s ‘Motomami‘. So far, little has been revealed about the upcoming LP, but now she’s revealed in a new interview with ELLE that it will be very different to its predecessor.

When asked what she could reveal about the album, she told the magazine, “that it doesn’t sound like my previous album at all.”

She went on to add that she’s taking her time with the project and avoiding the pressure to quickly capitalise on ‘Motomami”s success.

“The rhythm [of the music industry] is so fast. And the sacrifice, the price to pay, is so high,” she said. “The driving force that leads you to continue making music, to continue creating, has to come from a place of purity.

“Motives like money, pleasure, power… I don’t feel that they are fertile. Nothing will come out of there that I’m really interested in. Those are subjects that don’t inspire me.”

It follows previous comments about her fourth album, with the Spanish singer saying: “It’s been a process.

“I’ve changed a lot, but at the same time, I’m still wrapping my head around the same things. It’s like I still have the same questions and the same desire to answer them. I still have the same love for the past and the same curiosity for the future.”

Rosalía has also hinted previously at her upcoming material whilst celebrating her track ‘Despecha’ reaching 1billion streams on Spotify – making Rosalía the first Spanish artist to reach the achievement.

In a caption, she wrote: “Hopefully life will allow me to share many more songs. For now, I’m still working on the new album and I can only say that the wait will be worth it.”

NME gave ‘Motomami’ five stars: “Rosalía isn’t so much carving out her own lane as building her own ultra-modern, super-bendy sonic motorway. It’s one you’ll want to hurtle down again and again.”

In the years since, the singer has released multiple collaborative tracks, including ‘New Woman’ with BLACKPINK‘s Lisa, her song with Björk, called ‘Oral’ and last September’s ‘Omega’ featuring Ralphie Choo.

She’s also set to star on the upcoming season three of HBO’s Euphoria, marking her first foray into acting.

Elsewhere, she recently responded to the fashion designer who refused to work with her due to her lack of public support for Palestine.
