GRAMMY and Latin GRAMMY Award winning recording artist and producer ROSALÍA has released a new song, “TUYA”; listen here. Following the sonic exploration found on her groundbreaking album MOTOMAMI, “TUYA” is a sensual, lustful song co-produced by ROSALÍA that features reggaeton infused with strings from the koto, the national instrument of Japan.

One of the most visually enthralling artists working today, no ROSALÍA song is complete without a fashion forward video accompaniment; watch the Stillz-directed video for “TUYA” here. Filmed entirely in Japan, the video finds ROSALÍA and a furry companion wandering the streets, deep in thought while also experiencing the joys of Tokyo. The video serves as a love letter to Japan, a country that ROSALÍA has great love and respect for. A favorite place of hers to travel to for work and pleasure, ROSALÍA has long been inspired by the community, music and art of Japan.

Says ROSALÍA, “Exploring is part of who I am as a musician and in the case of “TUYA,” inspirations such as reggaeton, Japanese instruments, flamenco and gabber techno coexist at the same level.”

“TUYA” is ROSALÍA’s first musical release since RR, her joint three song project alongside her partner, Latin GRAMMY Award winning reggaeton icon Rauw Alejandro. ROSALÍA is currently on a robust festival tour across Europe; fans can find dates and ticket information here.
