Shakira, 1977 was born on February 2, 1977. Her real name is Shakira Mebarak Ripoll. She is a natural artist who combines creative and singing talent, sexy enthusiasm and elegant temperament. Shakira, named after Arabic, stands for the ultimate in elegance.
She has won the first prize in various regional and national music competitions since she was 65,438+00 years old. She signed a contract with Sony Records before the age of 65,438+03, and her first album "Magia" included her works created between the ages of 8 and 65,438+03. Today, Shakira has not only won various music awards, but also been selected as the influential and glorious cover figure of Time magazine in the United States, and was elected as the representative of today's Latin artists.
From 65438 to 0996, Shakira released her first Latin album "Pies Descalzos", which not only set a global sales record of 4 million copies, but also broke the established formulaic pattern of Latin pop music, giving Latin music an unprecedented real voice. For example, the best-selling single "Estoy Aqui" in the album "Pies Descalzos" is full of melody, surprising musicality and personality, and her intellectual words and expressions, as well as the flexible use of electronic and traditional acoustic instruments, have brought Latin pop music to a higher and wider realm.
1998, Shakira released her second Latin album DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES, which won Shakira the "Best Latin Rock/Alternative Artist" in the 4 1 Grammy Music Award. The works included in the album "Ciega, Sordomuda, Tu, Successfully, Ojos Asi, Moscas En La Casa" have all become the top 25 songs in the Latin list of Billboard, among which "Ciega, Sordomuda" and "Tu" have successively won the championship, and the album itself has not only sold more than 500,000 gold records in the United States, but also achieved success.
MTV Unplugged released in 2000, all the songs in the album were received from Shakira's concert for MTV TV network in Latin America in August 1999, and the concert in September of the same year was strongly broadcast in Latin America and the United States through Telemundo network. In this live MTV concert, Shakira sang several best-selling singles from her previous platinum album, including the best-selling single "Estoy Aqui" from Pies Descalzos album. In the album Estan Los Ladrones in Donde, the top 25 songs in Billboard Latin list are inevitable, including Ojos Asi and Moscas En La Casa, as well as two number one singles, Ciega, Sordomuda and Tu, among which Ciega, Sordomuda was completed in cooperation with a Mexican wandering band.
After gaining a firm foothold in the Latin American market, Shakira released her first English album Laundry Service in 2002. She provoked the creation and production of lyrics and songs by herself, and gave full play to her multi-level voice performance, from sweet and wild to mysterious and elegant. In the first week of release, she jumped to the top three on the Billboard list. From led zeppelin, The Cure, The Police and The Beatles, I heard Shakira from Nirvana, who combined rock music with pop elements and deeply influenced her creation. In addition, influenced by her Lebanese father, she was deeply interested in Middle East music, which made her construct a musical vision immersed in exotic atmosphere. Shakira, who studies poetry every day, reveals elegant and intellectual characteristics in the artistic conception of lyrics and the handling of words, and is regarded as a Latin creative woman. The first single "Anytime and Anywhere" is a wild and dynamic love song, flavored with traditional instruments such as the flute and Brazilian drum in the Andes. Currently ranked in the top 6 singles. As the advertising spokesperson of Pepsi in America and Latin America, Shakira brought the English version of the advertising theme song "Ojos Asi", with English lyrics written by Gloria Easterfen herself. It is a very good album with good taste and material.
Shakira mentioned the name of this album in an interview with Entertainment Weekly recently. She said: "Love and music, like soap and water, can profoundly purify and improve people's lives. The difference between this album and the songs I wrote before is that I didn't express my love directly. I am a persistent and controlling person. But during the period when I started making this English album a year and a half ago, because English was not my mother tongue, I had to challenge new attempts, so even though I had 1 1 years of singing and production experience, it was like the joy of my freshman to finish this album today! Shakira has been greatly influenced by Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Beatles and many other British and American rock groups since she was a child, so rock and roll has always been her favorite music style. In order to enter the international stage and reach more fans around the world, Shakira said that she has made more attempts this time, such as popular and blending different music styles from many countries, and she is also interested in trying rhythm and blues songs in the future.
The 24-year-old Shakira changed her hair color from red to natural blonde hair, which made her more fresh and charming and won the love of many fans in the United States. Some people say that Shakira now looks like pop idols like Christine and britney spears. She also revealed that since she changed her new look, every time she walked on new york Road, she would be mistaken for Britney Spears, and someone would pull her and shout for her autograph. However, Shakira doesn't mind this situation. At first, she was described as sexy as jennifer lopez and singing like alanis morissette. She believes that although she has her own day in Latin countries, it is a new beginning in the United States and the world. Not only fans, but also Time magazine, which leads the fashion trend, named it as a cover character. Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a Nobel Prize in Literature winner and Colombian national treasure writer, also spoke highly of her: "No pop singer can sing and dance like Shakira at any time. Sensibility, but it doesn't hurt the inner innocence at all. " Shakira is confident to stick to her intuition and let everyone feel her unique charm together!
