Karol G has earned the honour by being the most-streamed female Latin artist on Spotify for four years in a row, with her album 'Manana Sera Bonito' becoming the music service's most-listened-to Latin album in a single day by a female artist in March 2023. A limited run of the Nike home shirts featuring the singer's logo is available to buy online now, as well as just 22 signed versions. A raft of merch including hoodies, scarves, beanies and water bottles has also been released alongside the jersey on the artist's official website.
WHAT KAROL G SAID
Speaking upon the release of the new shirt, Karol G said: "The heart symbol represents what became ‘Bichota’ style, a moment in my life where I found strength, resilience and support. Thanks to Spotify and FC Barcelona, seeing it on the front of a shirt that inspires so much of that same energy is truly meaningful."
