But now \u2014 as she\u2019s about to turn 30 next month \u2014 her mindset has shifted, bringing to life her fourth studio album, <em>IDGAF ERA<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201c[My album] was born from this whole process of mine, which I called my midlife crisis,\u201d she tells <em>Billboard<\/em>. \u201cI\u2019m at a very important moment in my career. After so many years making music and in this industry, I started to question myself a lot about what resonates with me right now. Throughout that process, I feel like I\u2019ve entered a small crisis where many changes are also beginning to appear in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>More from Billboard<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Among those changes were people who came in and out of her life, resulting in the 29-year-old artist wanting to recruit brand new producers for her new LP, such as Casta, Kastelo, and Majestik.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI had this desire to create music with new people. I always had my equipment at home, but I felt like exploring new sounds with new people. Much of this [album] originated in Miami, Medell\u00edn, and Los Angeles\u2014the entire team is new, and I met them during this process,\u201d she explains. \u201cHaving this album is a success because we had a lot of fun making it, and above all, I met wonderful people who I now consider family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>IDGAF ERA<\/em> is home to 10 tracks that will take fans on a trippy and experimental journey through Reyes\u2019 mature evolution, healing process, connection with herself, living in the present \u2014and her literal \u201cI don\u2019t give a f\u2013k\u201d mentality. Sonically, the album includes European house, afrobeats, intense perreo and indie pop gems, while reeling in collaborators Alan Walker, DannyLux, Leo Rizzi, Luisa Sonza, and RaiNao.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cFor me, this album is [the color] blue because during this process of undergoing different therapies, many people told me I had a blocked throat chakra, and they recommended I wear blue necklaces and blue stones,\u201d she notes. \u201cIt was part of the same process of becoming more loyal to myself, of learning to communicate better, of being more authentic, of letting go. Meanwhile, the shedding of my skin I\u2019ve been experiencing is best represented by the snake. That\u2019s how this whole concept was born.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">But it was the previously-released title track\u2014born during a two-week-long writing camp\u2014that ultimately brought the entire project full circle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cThis was the last song on the album. It had been intense days, and we didn\u2019t know what to write. I often feel like the songs I like most come from a place where there isn\u2019t much of a mind. I feel like several songs are born from the places where I\u2019m most tired or hungover,\u201d she laughs. \u201cWith \u2018IDGAF ERA,\u2019 it was like that; it flowed beautifully. The message here is to walk through life lighter, and that the things that weighed me down before no longer weigh me down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>IDGAF ERA<\/em> follows Reyes\u2019 <em>Louder!<\/em> (2017), <em>Mal de Amores<\/em> (2022), and <em>Milamores<\/em> (2023).
