  • It will be featured on LARÓ's upcoming third studio album, with a release date yet to be announced.

Chilean singer-songwriter and producer LARÓ, whose real name is Diego Laroze, has unveiled his latest single, 'Ya No Te Hago Falta' (I Don't Need You Anymore). This new track, presented in a stripped-down guitar and voice arrangement, emerged as a direct response to what LARÓ perceives as the overwhelming dominance of urban music genres. He expressed a feeling that his own genre, singer-songwriter music, is losing ground in Chile, with the industry heavily focused on spectacle and fleeting trends.

LARÓ aimed to create a song that incorporates the melodic aesthetics often found in urban music but grounds it in a guitar-driven sound. His intention was to connect with listeners through a reflective essence, distinct from the prevailing industry focus. This approach reflects a desire to carve out space for more introspective and melodically rich music within the contemporary Chilean music scene.

'Ya No Te Hago Falta' is set to be included in LARÓ's third studio album. While the album's title and specific release date remain undisclosed, this single offers a preview of the artist's musical direction. LARÓ, who debuted in 2020 with the single 'Abriendo Latidos,' continues to explore his Pop Folk Latino style, blending thoughtful lyrics with accessible melodies.

I felt that my music and the singer-songwriter genre have less and less space in Chile. The industry is focused on spectacle and oblivion. I wanted to create a song that takes the melodic aesthetic of urban music from the guitar, seeking to connect with our environment without losing the reflective essence.

— LARÓLARÓ explained his motivation for releasing 'Ya No Te Hago Falta' and his perspective on the current music industry.
