iLe has announced her third album Nacarile. It’s out October 21 via Sony U.S. Latin. The lead single “Traguito,” out today, features Chilean icon Mon Laferte. “I like iLe’s voice, it has a lot of personality and I really enjoy the type of music that she makes,” Mon Laferte said in a statement. “Although the song was already in the works, iLe invited me to write a new part of it so it was a challenge to add something more to a story that already existed. Thank you iLe, I enjoyed the process and I hope everyone enjoys the final recording as much as I do.” Hear it below.
The album features her previously released single “En Cantos” with Natalia LaFourcade. The title of the album is both a reference to iLe’s name and the Puerto Rican colloquialism “nacarile del oriente,” an exclamation that roughly means “not at all.” iLe said the title reflected the album’s tone. “It’s about accepting those moments where you feel a little lost – embracing that, but not staying in that feeling,” iLe said in a statement. “It’s like saying, ‘Thank you, I learned a lot, but no. I’m not going to stay there.’”
