Rosalía’s new album, “Motomami,' is all about rethinking established cultural boundaries. The album brandishes moments of rupture, discord and collision to evoke a modern world that questions old folkways.
You get a good sense of what Rosalía is up to across her dazzling new album from “Hentai,” a hushed and aching ballad — at least that’s what it starts out as — that comes about a third of the way through the 16-track “Motomami.”
Just then a juddering drum-machine beat drills into the production from out of nowhere, blasting away “Hentai’s” sense of sophisticated calm though not, crucially, its air of emotional longing. It’s not a bait-and-switch, this song; instead, Rosalía’s idea seems to be that sex — even at its hungriest — is worthy of the high-flown treatment that pop music typically reserves for romance.
Rosalía broke out in 2018 with the Grammy-winning “El Mal Querer,” which remade flamenco music using electronic textures alongside the form’s ancient tools of acoustic guitar and hand percussion.
