What Shakira and Beéle cooked up in secret with pure Caribbean flow: “Algo tú,” their collaboration recorded in Barranquilla

• Shakira and Beéle confirm the release of “Algo tú,” an original song recorded in the streets of Barranquilla that promises to become the new anthem of the Colombian Caribbean

• The single, debuting this March 4, follows the success of their previous collaboration on the reimagining of “Hips Don’t Lie” alongside Ed Sheeran

• After her historic free concert at Mexico City’s Zócalo, the Barranquilla native prepares to perform at the Pyramids of Giza and Copacabana Beach

What began as a mysterious studio dance video in September 2025 has finally blossomed into a complete, export-quality work. Shakira and Beéle set aside reinterpretations to gift the world “Algo tú,” an original single born in the heart of Curramba la Bella. After revisiting the classic “Hips Don’t Lie” for the Oral Fixation album anniversary, the chemistry between the two Colombian artists proved so potent that returning to their roots became inevitable.

The best-kept secret of Carnival

Rumors about this union exploded just a few days ago when onlookers spotted the artists filming the music video in one of the most iconic neighborhoods of the Barranquilla Carnival. Although fans initially speculated about a possible remix of “Te Olvidé,” the reality is far more ambitious. Shakira and Beéle cooked up a track that, according to early previews, evokes the freshness and massive success of “La Bicicleta.”

“On the road, nothing in the trunk, and wherever life takes us…” reads the lyrics of this new cut, which combines the She-Wolf’s global experience with Beéle’s urban freshness. The song will be available on all platforms on March 4, consolidating an alliance that celebrates Caribbean pride at its highest level.

A schedule of world records

The announcement of “Algo tú” arrives during a moment of peak excitement for the artist. This Sunday, March 1, the Mexican capital witnessed an unprecedented milestone when Shakira performed at the Mexico City Zócalo before a crowd that, according to estimates, surpassed the record of 300,000 attendees previously held by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs, reaffirming her status as the absolute queen of Latin pop.

But the ambition of the “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran” singer does not stop in Mexico. On April 7, the singer will make history by performing at the majestic Pyramids of Giza in Egypt. Just a month later, on May 2, the Colombian star will follow in the footsteps of legends like Madonna to perform at the “Todo Mundo no Rio” show on the iconic Copacabana Beach, where organizers expect a gathering of over 2 million people.

Heading to Spain?

While the world enjoys her new material with Beéle, the European press follows her steps closely. Rumors grow regarding a possible musical residency in Madrid for the month of September, a city where the superstar is reportedly searching for a house to settle in temporarily. Without a doubt, 2026 is the year in which Shakira and Beéle will set the entire planet dancing to the unmistakable rhythm of their homeland.
