Last year, Mexican American singer Becky G released her first album of regional Mexican music, “Esquinas.” Her newest album, “Encuentros,” makes it clear that this is not a temporary interest. She’s dedicated to exploring the folk music in depth, and by adding modern fusions.

“Every song has a thread that takes you on that adventure,” she said. “We decided to mix instruments from other genres and a production style in my vocals that makes it feel a little more modern. And that, for me, was a lot of fun.”“When I was creating music in the other genres, if it was pop music, if it was reggaeton, we were always playing and mixing genres. So, I decided, ‘Why not do it with regional music?’” she said.
“Todo” features Delilah, a rising artist. “We wanted it to sound like when you’re singing near someone,” Becky G said. “It’s a very big song, but very quiet. It’s a very difficult style to achieve, but I think we did it really well, because it feels so big, it feels like a Disney song. I’m obsessed with her voice, Delilah’s voice. I think our voices together is magic.”
“Anyone who sees this, if they live in London, anywhere in the world, they’re going to see it, and they’re going to understand who Becky G is,” she said. That also translates to the album cover, in which she appears posing under the sun, with LA in the background.
