Shakira – She Wolf (Calvin Harris Remix)
We weren’t impressed with Calvin Harris’ newest album, but we also can’t deny that the man can make mega-fun music. PMA has been a big fan of Calvin’s remixes the most. One of our biggest complaints on his new album was the undeniable feeling that his tunes would be a lot better if another vocalist took charge. This is exactly what we get when Harris takes on guilty-pleasure pop tunes, like Shakira’s “She Wolf.”
The man has a knack for grabbing already catchy pop tunes by the neck and turning them into sure-fire dance-floor fillers. I challenge you to play this remix at your next party and see if people don’t start going down. I know I will make sure to jot this one onto this weekend playlist. Along with this tune. Listen to it here: Continue reading →

Shakira – She Wolf / Loba
Shakira is one of the most undeniably interesting and talented international superstars of our generation. With her astonishingly great English-crossover album Laundry Service, and her follow-up dual albums Oral Fixation/Oral Fijacion Vol. 1 & 2 (specifically mega-singles “La Tortura” and “Hips Don’t Lie”), Shakira has become a fixture in pop music and is known for her genre-blending.
On her newest pair of singles, “She Wolf” and Spanish counterpart “Loba,” the Latin-rock-goddess ditched her signature ferocious vocals and jangly guitar riffs for a very electronic, very disco flavor.
“She Wolf,” the first single off her upcoming album of the same name, is unlike anything Shakira has ever done in the past. In 2009, the realm of disco-y electro-pop is quite crowded unfortunately, but it’s Shakira’s unique voice and fantastic, nonsensical lyrics that make this single a stand-out among the La Roux’s and Little Boots’ of the world.
