Una Noche de feminidad poderosa y GRASA con Nathy Peluso

London was left in an uproar of song, dance and raw emotion as Nathy Peluso performed her latest album, GRASA, at Roundhouse Camden, last night. Having rapidly risen to fame with her first album and worldwide tour, Calambre in 2020, the Argentine-Spanish singer returned to London with a second studio album tour, GRASA.

The atmosphere was electric as the crowd danced to an array of salsa and alternative Latin music, getting ready for a dynamic and animated live performance. The crowd chanted “Nathy” whilst the band prepared their positions, and as the lights came down, Nathy appeared centre stage. Starting her show with ‘CORLEONE’, Nathy wore head to toe Marine Serre, rocking their crimson red leggings, a graphic T-shirt and red mesh bodysuit, polished with black knee-high boots.

GRASA, debuted last May 2024, was released with the intention to show a more intimate side of Nathy, sharing that the album was about learning to love yourself and knowing your worth. Being four years since her last album, Peluso felt her life had changed significantly and used GRASA to deal with her emotions privately, all the while creating an artform that she could share with her fans. Learning from the successes and navigating the challenges, Nathy’s most authentic album to date was formed, self-directed and produced alongside artists Manu Lara, Didi Goodman and Rafael Cauta.

Appearing on stage with a white flag, printed with her album title, GRASA, Nathy sang ‘LA MENTIRA’, a single that is a critique of modern society’s superficiality. Symbolising a ceasefire with society’s falsehood, Nathy waves the flag back and forth as she raps about a world where authenticity is attacked.

Nominated for Grammy’s Best Latin Rock and Alternative Album, GRASA shows a diverse range of technical skills, amalgamating authentic Salsa melodies with underground Rap. Getting the crowd off their seats and singing with once-considered strangers, Nathy performed fan favourites, ‘TODO ROTO’ featuring CA7RIEL and ‘MANHATTAN’ with Duki, showcasing artist collaborations chosen intentionally by Nathy for their personal tone, attitude and creativity.

Effortlessly engaging with her audience in every song, Nathy takes a moment to sit down and impart wisdom. Acknowledging her sold out venue that is bursting at the seams with cheer and excitement, Nathy gives her crowd a special message on gut feelings; that “in these hard times, you must always listen to the signs and connect”, before singing with pure vocals, ‘EL DíA QUE PERDÍ MI JUVENTUD’.

Having chosen the title post album-creation, Nathy aimed to find a phrase matching her hard work in creating this uniquely blended album. ‘Grasa’, a Spanish phrase of several meanings – most associated with negative connotations such as ‘vulgar’ or ‘tacky’ – also means greasy or oily, to which Peluso often recounted her father coming home from a day’s hard work at a gas station with dirty and greasy hands. Nathy chose to redefine GRASA as tough, strong and hard – a description of how she worked tirelessly to overcome struggles and navigate hardships.

Nathy ended the show with the much-loved singles, ‘VIVIR ASÍ ES MORIR DE AMOR’ and ‘REMEDIO’; the perfect way to fill the venue with an overwhelming sense of love and gratitude. A standing ovation followed as Nathy gave endless thanks and blessings to her fans who travelled far to experience pure energy and a superlative performance from one of our favourite Latin singers.

GRASA is an ode to Nathy’s effortless musical fluidity and outstanding artistry.

Unapologetically Nathy Peluso: An Artist To Watch

Nathy Peluso is the Argentinian-born singer that with her Trap, Hip Hop and R&B sounds has taken over our playlists.

The Latin promise has been marking the international music scene with her talent and fearless approach since 2017, following the release of her hit single ‘Corashe’, and continues to do so with projects like “Calambre” – that represent the combination of contemporary urban sounds, traditional Argentinian music, and unapologetic lyrics.

Nathy Peluso’s music has been all over the music landscape recently, resulting in her nominations for the 21st Latin Grammy Awards for Best New Artist and Best Alternative Song categories, which were accompanied by her live performance alongside Argentine rockstar Fito Paez. But her artistic trajectory is not as recent as you’d think, the singer-songwriter has always been interested in the artistic world, which she first entered while studying Pedagogy in visual arts and dance, back when she considered singing to be a “hobby”.

But as she explains in an interview with Billboard back in 2020, it didn’t take long for her to transform her passion into more than just a hobby. The 26 years old artist combined her interests in arts, music, dance, and theatre to build the career she has nowadays – which started with a few Youtube releases of her street poetry and rap. She became known for her experimentation with the Spanish underground music scene, bringing her flow and sometimes explicit lyrics at balance with the Spanish Hip Hop scene, and with an evident touch of Argentinian culture through the inclusion of Latin sounds and the merge of iconic influences.

Although traditional is not the first word that would come to your mind when listening to Nathy Peluso and songs like “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 36”, the singer has been described as a pioneer of Latin music due to this innovative fusion with traditional Argentinian music. Our favourite example? “Calambre” of course, Peluso’s forthcoming debut album, that pays homage to the Argentinian music scene with contemporary trap tracks that reference Argentine rock icons and more.

The appeal of her music centres on the ease, or apparent ease, with which she alternates in between and fuses different genres. From the soul present in “Llámame” and “Buenos Aires”, to the ballad of “Trío”, and the salsa in “Puro Veneno” to the wild trap of “Sana Sana” or the reggaeton hit “Wild love”, Nathy Peluso’s musical diversity doesn’t cease to surprise us.

Her visuals and on-stage performance are further proof of this, and although we haven’t been able to attend one of her concerts in the past year, we might have the opportunity to do so from this upcoming weekend. The avant-garde singer will be performing at the Montreux Festival in Switzerland, which begins this Friday (following the established anticovid measures), alongside other prominent international artists.

There’s no doubt that Nathy Peluso has marked the music industry, and our music taste, over the last three years (at least) and that she will most likely continue to do so with her peculiar approach to urban sounds and Latin folklore, and her empowering lyrics… so we cannot wait to hear and see what she has in store for us.
