Como Quieres Que Te QuieraRosario

Rosario Flores is a cantaora who excels at bright palos like alegrías.

In cante, the deepest tragic expression—such as in soleá—is generally considered the pinnacle.

In Rosario’s case, however, she shines most in the opposite vein of flamenco, favoring lively styles like alegrías.

She is one of the few cantaoras whose personality clearly comes through in her singing.

She also has a close relationship with Diego El Cigala and has collaborated with him.

She sings nuevo flamenco as well, so be sure to check her out!

Chanel, who hails from Spain, is a multi-talented artist specializing in pop, Latin pop, and reggaeton.

She made her debut in December 2021 and quickly gained attention with “SloMo.” Representing Spain at the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest, she finished in third place—a remarkable achievement not seen since 1995.

Her songs often center on themes of self-affirmation and body positivity, and her energetic performances are a key part of her appeal.

Excelling in both dance and vocals, she is recommended not only for fans of Latin music but also for those drawn to powerful female artists.

Carlos de Pepa, who gained attention for his appearance on La Voz—the Latin version of the globally popular audition show The Voice—has a standout charm: his deeply weathered, husky voice.

He does have a certain level of vocal skill as well, but his voice is so good that it almost makes everything else irrelevant.

Although he doesn’t have a long track record as an artist, he already exudes the presence of a seasoned veteran.

His songs are also extremely sophisticated, so be sure to check them out!

Zenet is an artist who is also active as an actor.

While his musical style is rooted in jazz, it blends a variety of genres such as flamenco and tango.

His voice is very high, and if you listen with your eyes closed, it could even sound like a woman’s.

His signature song Soñar Contigo didn’t achieve major commercial success, but it earned very high praise from music connoisseurs.

He also collaborated with Miguel Poveda on this track.
