Revelación

"Selena Gomez moves smoothly into Spanish-language pop ... She has a great time singing over reggaeton beats on an EP that plays to her strengths ... following in the footsteps of Christina Aguilera as the next major pop star to musically embrace their Latina heritage. Twenty years after Aguilera's Mi Reflejo LP, Gomez dropped her first Latin project, the Revelación EP. Both titles explore a theme of reflections, like looking into the mirror at another side of their pop identities. Whereas Aguilera's was a mix of hits re-recorded in Spanish and original material, Gomez gives the Latin sound a spin with 7 all-new songs".

"On her first Spanish-language EP, 2021's Revelación, Selena Gomez conjures a romantic atmosphere that balances chic studio-cool with warm vulnerability. It's a mature sound and one that builds nicely upon her genre-blending 2020 studio album Rare, which found Gomez pushing the stylistic boundaries of her mainstream aesthetic, experimenting with French disco, R&B, and some Latin-influenced rhythms ... [Her producers] craft a hypnotic blend of alternative R&B, Latin pop, and reggaeton, framing Gomez's intimate vocals in textured synths, dense bass grooves, and clipped electronic beats. Gomez has grown significantly as a performer since her early Disney years and Revelación further underlines that transformation".

"Love and self-confidence abound ... The pop star waited a decade to release this Spanish-language record, which sees her swap all-out pop belters for tasteful R&B and reggaeton".
