WASHINGTON: Good news for all the Shakira fans!! The Columbian singer is all set to make a grand comeback after a long hiatus of seven years. She has finally announced her new album titled 'Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran' (Women Don't Cry Anymore) which will be out on March 22. "Making this body of work has been an alchemical process," said Shakira in a statement.
"While writing each song I was rebuilding myself. While singing them, my tears transformed into diamonds, and my vulnerability into strength," as per Variety, a US-based media outlet.
The new album consists of 16 tracks, eight new songs and a remix, including seven previously released singles: 'Music Sessions Vol. 53' with Bizarrap; 'TQG' with Karol G; 'Te Felicito' with Rauw Alejandro; 'Copa Vacia' with Manuel Turizo, and more.
