Billboard critics are impressed by the performance of ROSALÍA’s album LUX on the U.S. charts, noting that it represents a major step forward for the development of classical music, as well as the beginning of a major turning point for Spanish-language albums on the charts.
“This is an album that challenges every standard: for ROSALÍA, for Spanish-language music, and for pop and commercial music as a whole. It’s a complex album, performed in many different languages by a pop star, yet presented in a highly sophisticated classical format. I don’t know how much ROSALÍA shared with her team throughout the process, but I imagine there must have been some concern. Would it work? Would it be too much? Would it be difficult for the TikTok generation to consume? Would short-form consumption degrade the product? How do you promote something like this? How do you make people listen? And yet, everything worked out. She achieved the biggest debut of her career with an extremely complex musical work. It’s something both exciting and unprecedented for ROSALÍA and for the music industry.”
“Think about it: entering the top 5 of a chart dominated by global megastars, especially with an experimental album that blends genres and is sung in 13 languages? It’s remarkable, especially for someone who is pushing artistic boundaries (experimental and operatic) instead of chasing hit formulas. Someone who is carving her own path internationally and redefining Spanish-language albums on a global scale. This performance is a major victory. It shows her growth and opens doors for even more mainstream recognition without sacrificing her artistic credibility.”
🚨 Rosalía estalla contra las críticas a su nuevo álbum “Lux” durante su entrevista en La Revuelta:
“Es un álbum para homosexuales, no para gays.” comentó la artista e iluminada.
My agency (https://t.co/8Wcn3jHPjz) did the design for Zohran’s campaign.
While I wish I played a part, it was all the masterful work of my partners, Aneesh and Phil.
Having worked with these 2 for close to a decade, it’s no surprise they created what many consider (the most?) iconic political branding.
I’ve seen Aneesh go deep into the archives of typography and color theory, and Phil spend hours custom-building animations to bring a UI to life.
HYPED to see their work getting the credit it deserves.
She hates Black women, her brother’s in prison for sexually assaulting a child, her husband’s a registered sex offender and now she’s come out as a Trump supporter? The bar was underground, and somehow she still managed to limbo under it.
Lady Gaga talks creating “Gaga” at 19 after tough experiences in NYC:
"I inhabited someone that you wouldn't wanna mess with. If I made it weird and creative it wouldn't be sexy to anyone. I felt as a woman protected in a very male dominated industry.”
