Crazy about Shakira? Not a surprise. This Colombian singer is the
heartbeat of millions of hearts all across the globe. Find out more
about Shakira songs and Shakira music here.
Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, popularly known as Shakira is a
shining star who emerged in the music scene of Colombia and Latin
America in the early 1990s. Very few fellows would be known to this fact
that apart from a professional singer, Shakira is also a songwriter,
belly dancer, record producer, choreographer and model. Shakira began
her music performance in her very school days. Shakira music albums are a
fine blend of rock and roll, Latin and Arabic influences with her own
original twist on belly dancing.
Talking about Shakira songs,
almost all of them are a big hit. Remember her very first single
“Whenever Whenever”? This is indeed one of the best among Shakira songs
and was the best selling single of 2002. Shakira’s debut album, Magia,
was recorded when she was only thirteen years old. The songs of this
album are a collection made by her since she was 8. However it faced
loss by a lack of recording and production combination. The album was
released in June 1991 and featured “Magia” and three other single
Shakira songs. Though it fared well on Colombian radio and gave the
young Shakira much exposure, the album did not fare well commercially as
only 1,200 copies were sold worldwide. It was the beginning of her
journey in the pop world. And do you know the recent milestone achieved
by her? When she released her seventh studio album, the bilingual Sale
el Sol in October 2010, it has sold over 2 million copies worldwide. The
world got a chance to witness the magic of Shakira on the occasion of
FIFA world cup, when the song “Waka-Waka”, the theme song, became also
quite popular. It is considered one of the best Shakira songs and is
listened passionately even after the 2 years.
Discussing further on the song Waka Waka, the noticeable thing in
that was the enthusiastic Shakira music. The song was successful to
perfectly show the passion of football game in the world and its credit
completely goes to the Shakira music. In my personal opinion, music is
the best part of the Shakira songs. Shakira has won ample name, fame and
awards for her awesome music. She has her own star for Hollywood Walk
Of Fame, won 5 MTV Video Music Awards, 2 Grammy Awards, 8 Latin Grammy
Awards, 6 Billboard Music Award, 12 Billboard Latin Music Awards and has
been Golden Globe-nominated and the list is still counting. One can
feel a strong touch of Latin style in Shakira music. If you are addicted
pop, Shakira music is the best dose for you.
