The project reinvented flamenco and mingled it with pop and hip-hop music. The songs "Malamente" and "Pienso in tu Mira" were popular among the Spanish public and garnered all-encompassing critical acclaim. 11) Winner of the Latin Grammy Award for Album of the Year, and a place in Rolling Stone's list of 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, El Mal Querer started the ascent of Rosalia into the world music scene.

The third studio album she released, Motomami (2022) gave reggaeton an innovative sound that was moving away from the flamenco-inspired style. The album gained the attention of the world with its two singles "La Fama" and "Saoko" and was subsequently the most reviewed album of the year on Metacritic.
