Nelly Furtado Reveals New Album ‘7’, Drops High Energy Anthem ‘CORAZÓN’

Nelly Furtado has been whetting our appetite for new music for some time, since dropping Eat Your Man back in 2023 with Dom Dolla. However that collaboration isn’t set to feature on the star’s upcoming studio album 7 – her first since 2017’s The Ride. The upcoming fourteen track album from Nelstar/21 arrives on September 20th and will contain freshly dropped single, Bomba Estéreo collaboration Corazón.

On the new single, Nelly shared with fans: “I first felt the energy of what Corazón would become on a trip to Colombia with a couple of friends and then I kept on recording and four years later I have an album, and it’s really always about the journey , honestly. That’s the sad part because you can’t relive the journey – the magic and lessons happen DURING the journey.”

The star elaborated on her upcoming fourteen track album 7, noting: “I made 400-500 pieces of music in 4 years. My ADHD doesn’t always allow for me to organize creations in a methodical way so it’s hard to explain how we have chosen 14 songs that magically rose to the top of the heap. Phew – they come together just by nature of being in the same collection, 7, kind of like random seashells that may be similar but not at all alike.”

She continues: “So this album can’t be listened to like audio wallpaper, or maybe it can depending on how you like to enjoy music but I don’t even care if you skip songs, it’s up to you how to enjoy it. I really mean that. My only intention was to provide some portals to trip out and release and escape. 
I badly need music every single day. I badly need songs to listen to every single day. My brain doesn’t even work without music.”
