Shakira continues to be on everyone’s lips in the music industry. Following her split from Gerard Pique, anticipation for the Colombian’s upcoming musical releases has skyrocketed. First with Monotonía in collaboration with Ozuna, then with the BZRP Music Sessions #53 recorded with Argentinian producer Bizarrap, and now with announced collaborations with Karl G. there Manuel Turizy.

After what would be a fragment of the song published in duet by the Barranquilla and the singer of Montería, Córdoba; On Sunday, February 12, the single’s cover art and title were mistakenly leaked on the Shazam app. This was announced by a Twitter user.

The Colombian artist’s fan-run Twitter account @ShakiraMedia was responsible for posting an image of a pink-haired mermaid tied up and hanging in the air, in which the names of the two artists and the one which would be the title of the song: Empty Cup.

What’s striking, however, is that Shakira isn’t the only Colombian to reference a mermaid for a possible cover story. On Friday February 12, Karol G, another whose future collaboration with Shakira is expected, shared with his followers on his Instagram account the launch image of his new album where an image of Ariel, character from The Little Mermaid appears. .

A few days ago, on February 8, an extract had already been released that would be part of the new song between Shakira and Manuel Turizo. Although it is not clear if it alludes in some way to Gerard Piqué or will focus on the attack on Clara Chía, the truth is that these seconds show a decidedly sensual letter and far from which Shakira posted last year, as she transcended the news of the ex-soccer player’s infidelity and subsequent divorce. Only one sentence is heard in this leak:

“I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why. I want more, I want to drink from an empty cup”

Despite the fact that Shakira clearly does not mention her ex-partner, there is a lot of speculation that it could be a new attack on Pique, given the success that this formula has represented in its previous versions. . The same speculations surround his potential collaboration with Karol G. In fact, more details about this production were expected to be released or given on February 2, since that date was Shakira and Pique’s birthday. However, that ultimately didn’t happen and neither singer offered any details about it.

It should be remembered that the song would be part of Turizo’s new album, which would be called 2000, his third studio work and in which he will seek to direct his sound towards the ways of the reggaeton of the first years of the new millennium. The song is already known from this production I forget you.
