Shakira will release her new album, Sale el Sol/The Sun Comes Out, on October 19th.

The album will feature Shakira's record-breaking global hit "Waka Waka (This Time For Africa)", as well as a new single "Loca".

Recorded in the Dominican Republic, “Loca” is Shakira’s interpretation of Dominican artist El Cata’s song “Loca Con Su Tiguere".

You can hear the Spanish version of the track, above. There will also be an English version, featuring a guest appearance from Dizzee Rascal, the UK's number one rapper.

How on earth was Waka Waka record-breaking

There's a record for everything, you know

Wikipedia: "In the history of the World Cup it is the fastest-selling single and the biggest-selling World Cup single of the digital age."

Yay.

And hey, she's stealing my ideas.

Or maybe she's my sol-mate.

Looking forward to it. She's a good artist. However, I wasn't crazy about her last album... didn't think the elecronic stuff suited her.

Yo soy loca por mi tigre, loca, loca, locaaa
