Sol María is the fifth studio album by American rapper Eladio Carrión. It was released on January 19, 2024, through Rimas Entertainment. It contains collaborations with Milo J, Yandel, Rauw Alejandro, Arcángel, De la Ghetto, Sech, Duki, and Nach. The album is named after Carrión's mother, Sol María, who the album is also dedicated to.

A Latin trap and Latin pop album, including fusions of other musical genres such as dancehall, Jersey club, R&B and reggaeton, Sol María received favorable to mixed reviews from critics, and debuted at number 37 on the US Billboard 200 with 18,000 album-equivalent units. It was also supported by its accompanying tour, the Sol María Tour, and four singles: "TQMQA", "RKO", "La Canción Feliz del Disco" and "Mamá's Boy".

Background and release

[edit | edit source]

Following the release of his 2023 album 3men2 Kbrn, Carrión's song "Coco Chanel" (with Bad Bunny), which was commercially successful, would be nominated for a Latin Grammy for Best Rap/Hip Hop Song at the 24th Annual Latin Grammy Awards and would win, though he wouldn't be at the awards to accept it.[1]

In the beginning of 2024, Carrión would announce the release date of Sol María, scheduled for January 19, 2024. Though Carrión was not planning on not releasing any new music in 2024, his reason for the album's release, which is titled after his mother Sol María, is because he sees María as his number-one fan and wanted to create an album with songs that he thinks she would like.[2][3][4]

Composition

[edit | edit source]

Sol María is mainly a Latin trap and pop album,[5] containing elements of Afrobeats, dancehall, dembow, EDM, hip hop, Jersey club, R&B,[6] reggae and reggaeton throughout the album.[7] "Sigo Enamorau'" samples "I'm Still in Love with You", performed by Sean Paul, at the start of the song, while "Tranquila Baby" interpolates "You Got Me", performed by the Roots.[8]

Promotion

[edit | edit source]

He would release "TQMQA" on December 14, 2023, as the lead single for Sol María. Produced by DVLP, Xay and Western Weiss,[7] it received significant airplay in Latin music stations in the United States, eventually peaking atop the US Latin Airplay chart.[9] "RKO" was released on the same day as the album as its second single;[10] its accompanying music video, which was filmed at Citi Field, features American wrestler Randy Orton[11] and Venezuelan baseball catcher Francisco Álvarez.[12]

Carrión would also embark his supporting Sol María tour, which started on May 2, 2024 in San Juan, Puerto Rico and is set to conclude on September 29, 2024 in Veracruz, Mexico.[13][14] He would also perform "Bendecido" and "La Canción Feliz del Disco" at the 36th Lo Nuestro Awards, where Milo J also appeared on the latter's performance;[15] the latter's music video was released on April 10, 2024.[16] A music video for "Mamá's Boy" with Nach was released on May 12, 2024, to coincide with Mother's Day in Puerto Rico.[17]
