During a recent appearance on Hot Ones, Shakira opened up about her past vocal techniques, admitting that she feels she used to overdo her signature yodel in her earlier songs. The Colombian superstar reflected on her musical journey, expressing that she cringes when listening to her older music due to what she perceives as an exaggerated use of vocal techniques.
Shakira shared that she believes her voice has evolved over the years, becoming stronger and more mature. She attributed this growth to various factors, including her experiences as a mother to her two sons and her personal evolution as an artist and individual. The Grammy-winning artist highlighted that her voice underwent changes after her pregnancies, becoming thicker, more rounded, and fuller.
Referencing a previous interview where she candidly stated that she used to 'suck,' Shakira emphasized that she feels she has evolved as an artist and now appreciates her work more. She mentioned listening to her music with her sons and acknowledging her growth as an artist, indicating that she prefers her current artistic self.
Shakira's introspective comments shed light on her artistic journey and the evolution of her vocal style. As she continues to release new music, such as her recent album 'Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran,' fans can witness the growth and transformation of one of the music industry's most iconic figures.
