“The world of music has changed and it is no longer necessary to release records in the way we conceived it before,” considers Enrique Iglesias. For this reason, the singer ends his recording career today with the release of what is now his “last album”, ‘Final Vol.2’.
The Spaniard, who has a career spanning 30 years and is the artist with the most number one hits in Latin music, will, however, continue in the world of music making singles and concerts, as he explained in an interview with EFE.
Also focused on his family since he became a father, Enrique Iglesias considers that being at home “is a gift.” Having just finished the ‘Trilogy Tour’ with Ricky Martín and Pitbull, he will have much more time to dedicate to his twins Lucy and Nicholas, 6 years old, and little Mary, 4.
‘Final Vol.2’ closes Enrique’s last stage as a traditional artist, which began with ‘Final Vol.1’ in 2020 and which earned him hits like ‘Duele el corazón’, with Wisin, and ‘El Perdón’, with Nicky Jam.
The 10 songs that make up this bilingual album will be the last ones delivered as a collection. Three of them, ‘Esta es la vida’ with Argentine María Becerra, which accumulated 70 million views in two months, ‘Fría’ with Yotuel, and ‘Space In My Heart’, with Miranda Lambert, had already been released.
They are accompanied by two more collaborations, ‘Te lloré un Río’, a cumbia pop with Mexican artist Belinda, and ‘La Botella’ with the king of Dominican dembow, El Alfa.
In addition, the album includes six songs that Enrique sings alone, ‘Love and Pain’, an explicit song, ‘Me voy accustomed’, ‘Como yo’ and ‘Be Together’.
‘Final Vol.2’ is the twelfth studio album of his career and the fifth bilingual. The Spanish artist was one of the first to combine both languages ??in his music and in his record productions, in addition to having the first successful reggaepop song: “Bailando”, which turns 10 this April.
The singer did not detail the agreement with Sony Music Latin, his record label, but his plan is to continue releasing music, “just not with the obligation to package it on an album. I love composing! In fact, I am in the studio every day writing and recording new songs,” he said.
“Being able to spend some time with my fans and see them sing with me is very special. I always seek to give the best show to my fans, it is something that gives me a lot of joy,” he said.
The singer’s next concerts will be on April 26 and 27 in Mexico, at the San Marcos National Fair, in Aguascalientes, and at the Puebla Fair, in the city of Xicotepec de Juárez, respectively.
