Fourteen songs, three A-list features, and not a single moment of pretending everything’s fine. On August 7, KAROL G released her sixth studio album, No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, and if the title — “I Don’t Regret Feeling So Much” — sounds like a mission statement, that’s because it is.
The rollout alone signaled a shift. Where 2025’s Tropicoqueta leaned into tropical rhythms and party-ready hooks, this record trades that colorful bravado for something rawer. Karol confirmed as much in a teaser video posted before release, describing a version of heartbreak that doesn’t just hurt in the moment — one that reshapes who you are afterward, not just how you feel.
She wasn’t exaggerating. Across the record’s 43 minutes, Karol moves through tequila-soaked nights, drunk-dial temptations, and quiet moments of acceptance, often circling back to the same question from different angles: how do you keep loving after something breaks you? The closing track, Eclipse, captures that tension in under two minutes, with Karol asking the moon why love has to hurt at all. It’s brief, but it’s one of the album’s most emotionally direct moments — a stripped-down piano ballad that closes the record on a note of quiet reckoning rather than resolution.
The features do a lot of the heavy lifting tonally, too. Bruno Mars joins her on “Still,” a piano-and-strings ballad that pulls both artists away from their usual sonic lanes in favor of something closer to soul balladry. Drake shows up on “Ahí,” a link-up that’s been brewing since he shouted her out on a recent single and later appeared on the jumbotron at her Toronto tour stop. Spanish artists Judeline and rusowsky round out the collaborations on BbY WOW, while Cigarettes After Sex guitarist Greg Gonzalez closes things out with her on the dreamy indie ballad Después de ti, a song Karol first previewed during her Coachella headlining set back in April.
Not every track sits in the same emotional register, either. “Matadora,” a reggaeton cut with famously explicit lyrics, debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart the same week the album dropped — proof Karol hasn’t abandoned her sharper, more provocative side entirely. Elsewhere, songs like Con quién andará? and Si lo ven dig into suspicion and jealousy after a breakup, giving the record its more restless, anxious moments alongside the ballads.
Karol has said the writing process was shaped in part by long, solo hikes through the mountains in Hawaii, time she’s credited with teaching her about isolation and, eventually, self-acceptance. That arc shows up structurally on the album, too — tracks drift from anger and denial toward something closer to peace, without ever rushing the process.
No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto follows Tropicoqueta, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart and later picked up a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Album. Matching or topping that run with a moodier, more introspective record is no small bet — but early chart activity around “Matadora” suggests fans are following her into this new register.
Here’s the full 14-track lineup, with lyrics linked as they go live:
| # | Track |
|---|---|
| 1 | Te Llevas To’ |
| 2 | Maybe |
| 3 | Bebiendo Lágrimas |
| 4 | Ahí |
| 5 | Final Feliz |
| 6 | Still |
| 7 | Alguien Que Te Amaba |
| 8 | Matadora |
| 9 | For U My Love |
| 10 | Si lo ven |
| 11 | BbY WOW |
| 12 | Con quién andará? |
| 13 | Eclipse |
| 14 | Después de ti |
The album arrives in the middle of Karol’s Viajando Por El Mundo Tropitour, meaning many of these songs are already being tested live in front of stadium crowds. Whether No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto becomes the emotional centerpiece of that tour or simply a detour before her next reinvention, one thing is clear: Karol G isn’t interested in performing okay when she isn’t.
