There's no limits to Shakira's success in any market or language.
After a book of Shakira's lyrics for her¿Dónde Están Los Ladrones?,
or"Where Are The Thieves?" She teamed up with Colombian hit-maker Estéfano to pen the lead single"Ciega, Sordomuda." The song about being blinded by love kept Latin music fresh with its unique blend of mariachi and dance-pop music."Ciega" would define the sound of Latin music going into the new millennium as other artists started lining up to collaborate with Estéfano next.
. She was the first female artist in Latin music to be invited to record the special that later earned her a Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album."Ojos" features Arabic chanting and elements of Middle Eastern music that reflected her Lebanese side. Singing the hypnotic lyrics in Spanish, she beautifully blended both of her worlds. Shakira also started her signature belly-dancing here.
Following in the footsteps of Puerto Rican superstar Ricky Martin and Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias, Shakira crossed into the English market with"Whenever, Wherever," the lead single from heralbum. The Latin-influenced song was penned with another woman that laid the groundwork for her, Cuban-American singer Gloria Estefan.
With the world captivated by Shakira's English crossover, she uniquely retained that audience when it came time for her Spanish-language album. After Puerto Ricans like Daddy Yankee and Tego Caulderón put reggaetón music on the map, she dabbled in that sound for"La Tortura" with Spanish singer Alejandro Sanz. At a time when it was a rarity for a Spanish song to chart on the all-genre Hot 100 chart,"Tortura" peaked at No. 23.
