Billboard readers voted for the 14-track set as their favorite music release of the week after the New Music Latin poll and playlist was published; the album earned more than 62 percent of the vote.
In contrast to her vibrant and tropical-leaning Tropicoqueta — which debuted No. 1 on Top Latin Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre Billboard 200 in 2025 — NMADST is a more intimate, vulnerable look at the Colombian artist, who’s embracing her feelings and emotions. Sonically, the set is powered by heart-wrenching ballads, as well as dreamy glam pop, reggaetón, electronic and Afrobeats.
On the album, Karol brought in star-studded collabs including Drake on the kizomba-influenced “Ahí”; Bruno Mars on the ‘80s power love ballad “Still”; and Judeline and Rusowsky on the dancehall tune “Bby Wow.”
“I’ve always been open to making music in other languages — without pressure, as long as it flows and happens organically and naturally — and, well, that song found me,” the “Bichota” singer expressed of her collab with Bruno in a Tiktok on Aug. 7. “It expressed exactly what I was feeling and how I was feeling it; it was literally perfect for what I was going through, and I listened to it constantly. I tried to overthink it, but it was perfect — I hope it touches many people’s hearts.”
Another fan favorite in this week’s New Music Latin poll — following Karol’s winning album — is Ryan Castro and Feid’s third collaborative effort, “Mentira.” See the full poll results below.
