Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, born in 1977 in Colombia, emerged as a major figure in Latin music during the 1990s in Latin America and by the 2000s in the United States. Her distinctive style, blending Latin and Middle Eastern influences, sets her apart from other artists.
A successful singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, record producer, and dancer, Shakira has won the hearts and ears of millions, young and old alike, with her original and creative music.
Her lyrics are known for their originality, featuring unusual poetry with lines like: "You bit the apple and abandoned paradise, condemning the serpent, as it was your will."
Starting her English-language career in 2001, Shakira seamlessly adapted her unique style, transcending language barriers. Her first English album, "Laundry Service," was a phenomenal hit, earning her several of her 10 Grammy Awards. Songs like "Underneath Your Clothes" and "Whenever, Wherever" became immediate hits. Her music is a blend of pop with Oriental, tango, Latin, and new original rhythms.
Her subsequent albums, "Fijación Oral Vol. 1 and 2," featured collaborations with artists like Alejandro Sanz on "La Tortura," Wyclef Jean on "Hips Don't Lie," and Beyoncé on "Beautiful Liar," further establishing her success.
Shakira’s diverse heritage?"Catalan-Italian and Lebanese-Catholic?"contributes to her unique style that distinguishes her from other artists.
At the age of four, Shakira wrote her first poem, "La Rosa de Cristal," and continued writing poems that later became songs. When she was eight, following her brother's tragic death in a motorcycle accident, she wrote her first song, "Tus Gafas Oscuras."
Her personality shines through her lyrics and poems. Politically, she has expressed controversial views, such as her remarks on the Middle Eastern conflict, reflecting her Lebanese heritage.
Her then-partner, Antonio de la Rúa, son of a former Argentine president, was not well-loved in Argentina, but Shakira’s personal choices didn't overshadow her successful career. She remains celebrated in South America, the United States, Spain, and beyond.
While her style is sometimes compared to Alanis Morissette, Shakira’s sensuality and talent in belly dancing make her stand out. Her international breakthrough came with her MTV Unplugged album, "Dónde Están los Ladrones," in 1999, reaching millions of young listeners in the U.S. and Europe.
