A love affair, her worst romantic experience, inspired Danna Paola to release the album “KO”

Danna Paola ensures that in this 2021 his job will be to practically “reap” the fruits of the “worst romantic experience” of his life through his new album “KO”, in which he has flirted, like never before, with genres , arrangements and collaborators.

“This album was born out of a love affair”, said the Mexican artist this Thursday in an interview with EFE in which she did not want to identify the person who broke my heart.

At this time he prefers to leave it behind and express his frustration with the “hacker” that made the production public on Wednesday night. The launch was scheduled for today.

“ It bothers me because I and my team have prepared everything with great care and dedication, but already It happened and here we are ”, he said.

Even so, things have turned out well for him. Less than 24 hours after its launch, “KO ”Was in the first place in Apple Music, where there was surpassed in downloads to“ Tour of the end of the world ”of Bad Bunny.

The journey began in January 2020, “when I was literally made shit. Many nights were dedicated to transforming pain and sadness into something positive and courageous. Something that represents where I am as an artist ”, he revealed.

The result is the best of the four albums by the artist from 24 years old, who is known worldwide for her role as Lucrecia in the Netflix series “Elite”.

“Siete +”, the album he released in February of 2020 and was promoting all year, had an important urban identity and a more festive tone.

Even so, she felt hurt. In August EFE asked him what was the label that defined it at this time and he replied “#Sola.” Meanwhile, he was “KO” to “drain and do catharsis.”

production includes 11 songs, including “Do not dance alone” his success with Sebastián Yatra; “Justified”, a bilingual song that I had been working on for six years, and “Ordinary love”, the point of origin of the project and in which “I am most vulnerable”.

In “KO”, Danna Paola also works with artists unknown to the Spanish market. “Friend de Semana” is a trio with the Spanish Aitana and the Brazilian Luísa Sonza, and “Me, Myself” is a collaboration with the British Lebanese artist MIKA.

Although it continues Defined by pop, the backbone of the artist’s music, on the album there is ballad, disco music and even reggaeton that is more than slow is languid.

“It’s an exploration of my follies in my worst moments” , said.

The artist will present the album live to her fans at a concert. Danna Paola has credits as a songwriter in the 11 songs of “KO” and assured that he participated in each of the decisions.

And he wanted to make an album “like those from before ”, which would take the listener on an emotional journey in which“ he started out well, his heart broke and then he forcefully expressed the ‘knock out’. Now, you’re out of here. ”

The musical and visual concept, all decided by her, tastes like wine and tears. It is the message of the art of the album cover and the promotional video, which bear the title “The Last Supper”. In them looks intense and furious, vulnerable and melancholic.

“Everything was coming out during those nights in which I was determined that so much pain was useful for something,” she said. “It represents anger, frustration and rebirth,” he added. The gossip magazines assure that Danna Paola has found a new love, but the artist declined to speak about the subject, in part “because I have given myself many blows with men.”
