She’s everywhere, Tra, tra!
If you still don’t know the artist of the moment, we offer you a tour through her music and Rosalía’s social networks. Shall we?
You are on the bus and someone is dancing next to you, some chords sound that sometimes remind you of flamenco, other times rap, other times… trap? Maybe your ear is deceiving you because the person sitting next to you is wearing headphones. Your curiosity is piqued and you see on their phone screen the interface of Spotify and a being that seems ethereal coming out of a cloud crowned with gold. At its feet you can read, Rosalía: El mal querer. Your mind explodes because you don’t know why that rhythm has gotten deep inside you and you decide to do a quick search on Rosalía’s social networks to try to find out a little more about her.
Rosalía and her social networks
She has always been very active on Instagram, but in recent months her activity has multiplied due to the success she has achieved with her new work El mal querer, which has earned her two Latin Grammys. A real luxury for this artist who has already been dubbed the new Lola Flores.

Her first post on the social network, in which she showed images of several covers of old flamenco and copla records featuring Camarón, Concha Piquer, or Rocío Jurado, already hinted that this singer had these genres very present in her music. It is possible that at that time not even she imagined the success she was going to achieve.
Her first work titled Los Ángeles maintained the essence of flamenco, but in her singing style and the liberties she allowed herself when recording and performing it, you can see that Rosalía was something different.
In 2016, she showed her followers the latest vocals she was recording for her first work. But that first album has little to do with the current work that the Catalan presented to the world on November 2 of this year.
Her first work, like the second, is full of symbolism. Thus, the song Although it is night, which she performs in her unique style, is actually a 16th-century poem by San Juan de la Cruz. Do you think it can't be possible? Listen carefully.
Thanks to her latest album, she has managed to become one of the most popular artists in our country, something that is reflected in her social media. She has a total of 1,200,000 followers with 498 posts.
The Rosalía phenomenon has a lot of fusion, bringing together people with different tastes in the figure of this woman, whose work many have already called a masterpiece. But above all, it is about millennial visibility, since on her social media you can see all kinds of content, from some private to others more aimed at promotion.
And despite the video, which has already gone viral, in which she ignored none other than Pedro Almodóvar at the presentation concert in Madrid last November, Rosalía usually interacts with her followers and this is something her fans really appreciate.

If you don't follow her yet, you're missing out on one of the hottest stars on social media. Also, you'll be able to find out all the news about her concerts and the music videos she keeps releasing. To help you get to know her a little, we leave you the latest music video with which she has once again become a social media sensation.
Why? Because after surprising half the world with her unusual pink eyebrows, in her new video she appears with platinum blonde hair and bangs, leaving behind her black mane. Could it be so they don't confuse her with Inés Arrimadas?

Rosalía and the memes
But she hasn’t only been the star of her own social media; her influence has reached tweeters and instagrammers who have decided to take advantage of her popularity to show memes and tweets featuring her as the protagonist.
They don’t lack easy jokes and wordplays that will surely make you laugh:

Yes, it’s an easy joke, but it’s funny. And the thing is, Rosalía, besides being the trending artist in our country’s music scene, has even launched her own clothing line for the brand Pull & Bear, and social media couldn’t resist commenting on it with a lot of humor.

But if by now you still haven’t caught the bug to listen to her, give it another chance, because songs like Malamente, which might seem like a modern song with flamenco touches and choni aesthetic, hide much more than you think. In this video you will find the keys to why many experts consider Mal Querer, made as if it were a book with its different chapters, a masterpiece of current music.
Surely now you’re eager to learn more about her and how she has come to revolutionize the music world. You can find all her music on the main music platforms and memorize all her lyrics perfectly, so that when your friends say to you: “Tra, Tra” you won’t just stare at them like you don’t know what planet they came from.
