As a lover of music I am constantly looking for new things. Recently I discovered this relatively new Chilean artist called Paloma Mami who dropped her debut album Sueños de Dalí. Naturally my curiosity got the better of me and I gave it a listen. It’s safe to say that I was very impressed with this album and with Paloma Mami’s voice.

I really loved the production style on this album and the genre switches that go on from track to track. Some are more reggaeton while others are more R&B. Paloma’s vocal range is really something to marvel at.

My top three from this album are “For Ya,” “Mami,” and “I Love Her.” These three songs in particular are so empowering, especially “Mami” and “I Love Her.” They feel like anthems that really show women that they are stronger than they think and they have more power than they think. “For Ya” is very R&B and kind of chill. It’s got a nice vibe to it and I really just like how the chorus flows. It’s almost like Paloma is riding the beat and becoming it. “I Love Her” is really a very empowering song and it has a lot of elements from rock and electronic with a Latin twist.

“Mami” is awesome because it establishes a woman’s power in her life and gives her control of any situation. It’s also the perfect way for Paloma to really introduce herself in the game and show people her personality and that she is not someone to mess with.

I really love this album honestly and I am so happy that I discovered Paloma Mami. I think her voice is absolutely incredible and that life is going to bring her many more blessings in the future. She is truly a talented singer.
