Becky G on Her ‘Greatest Collaboration Yet’ With Herself — and Working With Karol G & Benny Blanco
The artist talks about her new album BARAJA BENDITA in an Apple Music conversation with Zane Lowe.
Becky G recently spoke about her creative relationships with Karol G and Benny Blanco in an interview with Apple Music’s The Zane Lowe Show, which aired on August 17. This came just days after the release of her new album, BARAJA BENDITA, on August 14. Becky emphasized that this album represented her "greatest collaboration yet," noting that the creative process was a harmonious blend of her authentic self and her vulnerability.
She drew inspiration from the duality of her personas, balancing her strong and protective side as "the Patrona" with her softer, more approachable "chula" energy. Becky also discussed her special appearance at Karol G’s tour stop at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, stating that performing alongside the Colombian superstar on their hit "MAMIII" was deeply inspiring.
She highlighted the bond between the two artists, comparing it to a mentorship where Karol generously guides Becky. The conversation also touched on Becky’s collaboration with Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez on the cumbia-driven single "Te Olvido (La La)." Released on July 31, this track topped Billboard’s list of tracks on Hermoso, Benny Blanco’s Spanish-language debut album.
Becky expressed her gratitude for being invited to contribute to the album, recognizing Blanco’s consistent support throughout her career.
