Pop icon Madonna has publicly praised Spanish singer Rosalía’s upcoming album, LUX, after receiving an early copy. The Queen of Pop shared her excitement on her official Instagram Story, calling Rosalía a “true visionary” and stating she “can’t stop listening” to the new music. The album features an unprecedented 13 languages, reflecting Rosalía’s ambitious artistic growth. Madonna’s endorsement has intensified anticipation for the record, which includes high-profile collaborations, including Icelandic singer Björk. The lead single, Berghain, blends English, German, and Spanish lyrics.
Rosalía’s LUX represents a significant linguistic and creative milestone. She sings in 13 different languages, combining modern pop sounds with experimental arrangements. According to The New York Times, she relied on Google Translate and language instructors to ensure each multilingual lyric was accurate and meaningful. The lead single, Berghain, features English, German, and Spanish verses. The album also marks a shift from her previous Grammy-winning release, Motomami, highlighting her artistic expansion.
Madonna expressed her admiration for Rosalía directly via Instagram, thanking the Spanish singer-songwriter and describing her work as visionary. Rosalía has also commented on the creative process, noting that multilingual singing allows her to grow as a musician and reflects the connected nature of today’s world. She described collaborating with Björk as an “instant crush of admiration,” emphasizing the high standards she set for herself before inviting the Icelandic icon to contribute.
The album’s multilingual approach is expected to set a new benchmark in pop music, highlighting Rosalía’s innovative vision. Madonna’s high-profile praise may boost the album’s visibility internationally, increasing streaming numbers and influencing chart performance. LUX positions Rosalía as a global trendsetter, capable of merging diverse linguistic and musical elements into mainstream pop.
LUX is slated for release later this year, with fans eagerly awaiting the full tracklist and additional collaborations. Industry analysts predict that the album’s innovative approach will influence other artists to experiment with multilingual recordings. Rosalía’s team is expected to announce tour dates and promotional events leading up to the album release.
