New track follows her recent collabs with Björk and Lisa
Rosalía celebrates the end of something great with her new single “Omega.” Featuring up-and-coming Spanish star Ralphie Choo, the ballad was released to commemorate the star’s 32nd birthday this week.
“Omega” kicks off with a moody, very Nineties guitar riff before Rosalía’s lilting vocals chime in. She tells the one she loves that they are the best, her “omega,” and that before she met them, she was at her worst. She and Choo celebrate finding their ultimate throughout the romantic track. The accompanying video, directed by frequent Bad Bunny collaborator Stillz, sees the pair on a literal rollercoaster.
“Omega is the end, it’s the celebration of having found what you wanted and the security with which one decides to stay,” Rosalía said in a statement about the track. “Omega is firmness with the one you love that makes you not want to be anywhere else but there.”
“Omega” appears to be a one-off, special single from Rosalía and unrelated to her fourth album that she recently revealed she’s been working on. “It’s been a process,” Rosalía said in an interview with Highsnobiety. “I’ve changed a lot, but at the same time, I’m still wrapping my head around the same things. It’s like I still have the same questions and the same desire to answer them.”
Since dropping her third album Motomami, the Grammy-winning star has done a series of high-profile collaborations: In March of last year, she dropped a collaborative EP with her ex-boyfriend Rauw Alejandro. This year, she’s kept busy with songs alongside Björk and Blackpink’s Lisa.
