Rosalia Says Billie Eilish Collaboration Is ‘Almost Done,’ Talks ‘Super Aggressive’ New Song With Travis Scott
Billie
“During these two last weeks I have been trying to finish the Billie Eilish collab,” she continues. “I think it’s getting quite closer. I think that the arrangements, I think that yesterday I finished the arrangements. I feel like the production, the sound design, is almost done, so I just need that Billie maybe sends the vocals and they send me the ideas that they want to add because we are there.”
Travis
“I was supposed to release a song with him last month that is for the clubs — super aggressive — that I’ve been working on for a really long time. But it has, I don’t know, an energy, that is so specific for a certain moment, that I didn’t feel like it was right to release, and I didn’t feel like it was connected with what was going on in the world in that moment.

Some nice quotes in here:
Rosalia:
“I was never in a hurry to make my first album,” she says. “I knew I wouldn’t do it until I knew exactly what I wanted it to be.” When she was 17, she met a manager who represented a major artist in Spain, who proposed a project that sounded very pop. “For me, it was like, No, that’s not going to be my first album,” Rosalía says. She turned her down. Waiting until she was around 22 to make her first album, and doing it on her own, gave her time to study and absorb. She soaked up many forms of music and synthesized them in a unique and layered way. “I want every album to be different, to feel alive,” she says.
Her manager:
“She’s been working at this in a very disciplined way for years,” she says. “I always use the metaphor that she’s like Batman in the cave,” referring to the place where Batman finds his soul in Batman Begins. “When he goes in with the gurus and he comes out and becomes Batman. That was her. She went and studied flamenco with this guru, Chiqui, for eight years. She didn’t go out. She didn’t party. She didn’t have boyfriends. She didn’t have a life. All she did was study flamenco and work hard. That’s why you have somebody who is so prepared. She’s not learning as she goes. She’s ready. More than any other artist I’ve ever seen.”
About criticisms of her Spanish/Flamenco background
Flamenco was an integral part of the cultural fabric when she was growing up. “Andalusian culture is present in Catalunya because there have always been immigrants from that region,” she says. “That’s the way it is. It’s a fact. Flamenco is in Catalunya.” Flamenco itself is a fusion of cultures (Romani, Sephardic, Moorish, Spanish), and its echoes can be found in all kinds of popular music. Not to mention that many of Rosalía’s early influences—Frank Sinatra, Bob Marley, Bob Dylan, David Bowie—came from outside Spain. “It’s so beautiful and so interesting that, in such a globalized world, we’re involved in so many different cultures, not just the culture that’s right around you.”
M
León says the controversy is a sign something is working. “She’s going to make people uncomfortable because she’s changing things,” she says. “Today, any kid in any room anywhere in the world has access to any kind of music. You could be in your room in India, and you could be listening to Justin Timberlake, so it’s valid that that’s an influence of yours, because that’s what you grew up listening to. It doesn’t have to be in your culture for it to have been an influence for you.”

Just seen it. I prefer her verse on Highest In The Room.

Sooo quick rundown: Rosalia originally classically trained in and influenced by flamenco. Her first album Los Angeles is her modern take on traditional flamenco with mostly ballads from her and a guitarist only.
Her second album El Mal Querer is where she blew up with. This is flamenco now mixed with pop and “trap” influences. The mix is so good there’s really nothing that sounds like it. This is a great start it’s where she became big off of, and won a Grammy. This is the latest one.
Last year to even further her popularity, she did a lot of reggaeton influenced songs with like J Balvin for example. Those are typically not how her songs sound. Idk how the new one will sound but if you know Rosalia from reggaeton songs you’ve heard you’re in for a surprise on her projects
