January 24, 20187 yr I would get tickets too if the concert wasnt on a Monday... :( Chantaje was the song of early 2017 and the predecessor for Despacito's success worldwide. Doesnt it have like 2 billion views on Youtube? It is in the top 5 of most watched female videos in the platform. Edited January 24, 20187 yr by rafik4u
January 25, 20187 yr Wow, these things cost a lot of money these days...! I do want to see Shakira one day. Yeah I think I actually paid more than I did for Gaga 😐 It's her only UK show though and I imagine there's demand, hence the price. Chantaje was the song of early 2017 and the predecessor for Despacito's success worldwide. Doesnt it have like 2 billion views on Youtube? It is in the top 5 of most watched female videos in the platform. It was for me too and "Me Enamoré" was the song of spring and summer! I'm not surprised that its YouTube hits are so high, Latin music gets much more views because the majority of countries that it's popular in don't have Spotify so it's the primary streaming service. "Trap", the other Maluma collaboration, is the fourth single and the music video will be out at 2pm tomorrow.
January 26, 20187 yr Surprised they've gone with "Trap", a pretty dull choice really given how good the album is :/
January 26, 20187 yr I couldnt resist and got my tickets for London! I am so happy, the whole Spanish British community will be there :cheer: Trap is good enough and Maluma will help this become another massive worldwide hit for Shakira.

What countries where Shakira is popular dont have Spotify? All major latin markets do. United States, Mexico, Spain, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Hondura, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, France, Portugal, Italy... It may be just that Latin countries are more into watching music videos on repeat than just listening to a song. Or also they prefer to watch them on Youtube for free than paying premium subscriptions. Also Latin music video production and quality has increased significantly recently.

I assumed you're right about them preferring free streaming on YouTube then? Brazil has ~4x the population of the UK but their Spotify chart streaming numbers are almost identical to the UK's.
February 3, 20187 yr zkG4Xpz6t68 Such a weird video! This album won Best Latin Pop Album at the Grammy's last week, which somehow is only Shakira's third ever Grammy Award, although she does have 12 Latin Grammys.
