Is Shakira still around?

Recommended Posts

I remember when Shaki started making it big in the US after Mtv had recorded an Unplugged session with her in 2000. Everybody loved Laundry Service, which spawned a bunch of successful singles. Next Spanish/English twofer Oral Fixation kind of didn't happen, although La Tortura is a fantastic song and was big. Come Sale El Sol, nobody really cared um2 She wasn't even slowly declining, people have just stopped paying attention to her all of a sudden.

 

Her presence amongst members here is practically non-existent too, although she's tenfold more talented than 70% of favourites. She writes, composes, can actually dance, has a great personality and talks no shit. So, what gives? Am I not paying attention, or she vanished (no counting Rih duo and non-musical stint on the Voice)?

Oral fixation was huge. Hips don't lie was the #1 biggest digital seller for the longest time and the tour was massive.

I think things slowed down for her in the US with she wolf because the label fucked up its release. But sale el sol was big in the Spanish world. I don't see her making a comeback in English markets but the Spanish ones will always be here for her. But lbr, that's better than nothing cause most of the 06 faves are struggling on all fronts.

she had LALALALA during world cup 

but it was a mess 

 

 

No sis, what was a mess was that Pitbull feat J-Low shit. People actually preferred LALALA over that "official" piece of deadly cancer.
