Shakira opens the pre-order window for her imminent studio album ‘El Dorado’ the most eagerly anticipated superstar release of the year. The 13-song ‘El Dorado’ will be available worldwide on May 26.

According to Colombian legend, the golden city of ‘El Dorado’ held invaluable treasures - and many spent years searching for them. In that spirit, Shakira has hidden treasures around the globe. Last week fans in six continents participated to piece together the tracklisting for the upcoming album in a matter of hours in over 900 locations.

So far, this album has spun off four massive hits. The fun started with La Bicicleta (The Bicycle), a shimmering fusion of urban and Colombian vallenato music in collaboration with Carlos Vives. This song spent 25 big weeks at #1 on the Billboard "Latin Airplay" chart and was certified 5x Platinum in Spain. It was followed up by the seductive track Chantaje (Blackmail) feat. Maluma. With over 1.1 billion views on YouTube, it is one of the platform’s biggest Latin hits in history. It also reached #1 on the "Latin Airplay" chart and was certified Double Platinum in Spain.

Delighting her followers with the sensual bachata rhythm, she then released the single Déjà vu feat. Prince Royce, which hit #1 on the Billboard "Tropical Songs" chart. Her latest hit Me Enamore (I Fell in Love), which tells her love story with Spanish soccer star Gerard Piqué, has quickly become another hit sitting in the Top 5 of Billboard’s "Latin Pop Songs" chart. 

Other tracks on this album include Nada (Nothing); Amarillo (Yellow); Perro fiel (Lap Dog) feat. Nicky Jam; Trap feat. Maluma; Comme Moi (Like Me) feat. French artist Black M; and Toneladas (Tons). ‘El Dorado’ also has three songs in English: When a Woman, Coconut Tree and What We Said feat. Canadian band Magic!.

The album’s cover art was created by Jaume de Laiguana, a longtime collaborator of  Shakira and the director of her music videos La Bicicleta and Chantaje.

‘El Dorado’ is her first Spanish-language album since Sale el Sol (2010) and her first studio album since her self-titled 2014 LP.

Shakira adds to her rich musical legacy with ‘El Dorado’ and reaffirms her status as a global icon.
