Rosalía said goodbye to Mexico with a collection of souvenirs that captured the tone of her stay: Churrumaís bags, a blanket with her face on it and a pair of tribal boots she modeled for her followers.

The Spanish singer had just finished five concerts at Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes as part of her LUX tour. She also shared memories of visiting La Lagunilla, walking through the Roma neighborhood and being filmed at an aura battle, a moment that quickly went viral.

But the item that attracted the most attention was a record by Paquita la del Barrio. Rosalía had already mentioned the Mexican singer during her first Mexico City performance. On August 22, she told more than 20,000 fans that “La Perla,” a song from her new album, came from ranchera music.

‘La Perla’ was born from rancheras. Without ‘Rata de dos patas,’ ‘La Perla’ would not exist.
