About this ebook
Rosalía is redefining pop music at a spectacular pace - a flamenco student turned global pop visionary, praised by the Vatican, embraced by the fashion world and adored by millions.
From her early days studying traditional cante in Catalonia to the genre-shattering impact of El Mal Querer, MOTOMAMI and now the stunningly ambitious LUX, Rosalía has rewritten the rules of what a Spanish artist can be.
Rosalía: The Making of a Modern Pop Icon is the first major (unauthorized) biography of the artist who has transformed modern pop by fusing religion, romance, R&B, classical music and more. A deep dive behind the hits, it reveals the creative risks, cultural battles and personal reinventions that have heralded her meteoric rise, making Rosalía one of the most magnetic artists of her generation.
Featuring a beautiful photographic section and charting her journey from local stages to the top of global charts, this is the definitive portrait of an artist whose vision is as fearless as her voice. Bold and intimate, it captures Rosalía at the exact moment her star goes supernova.
