Kali Uchis released her Spanish language album Sin Miedo towards the end of 2020, and today she releases a new version of album highlight “fue mejor” featuring none other than SZA. Uchis says:
“This is Latin R&B, this is SZA singing in Spanish for the very first time, this is spooky season, this IS the moment.”
Introduced by angelic coos and a revving chainsaw, Uchis and SZA are here to disorient and dominate in this version of “fue mejor”. This is their domain and you’re privileged to enter, as their verses make clear. As SZA steps in for her first recorded Spanish language verse, you might be surprised just how natural she sounds – her glittering voice not losing any of its intoxicating quality in this second language.
Watch the video for “fue mejor” below, or listen to it on streaming platforms.
Kali Uchis will join Tyler, The Creator on his North American tour next year.
