After her debut album Tiene que ser para mí (2022), Natalia presents her highly anticipated second studio work, N2STAL5IA, which marks the beginning of a more introspective, mature, and timeless phase in her career. With production that highlights the voice, storytelling, and space, the artist proposes an emotional and sonic shift that avoids immediacy and embraces pause, honesty, and vulnerability. N2STAL5IA serves as a musical reflection from the perspective of twenty-five years old, that place where we are no longer who we were, but still don’t fully know who we will become.
The title, which plays with the word “nostalgia” and the number “25” as a generational nod, condenses the spirit of the album: an emotional journey through attachment, heartbreak, loss, friendship, and relationships that shape us in the middle of our twenties. The fourteen songs naturally move between atmospheric pop and introspective R&B, sprinkled with electronic landscapes and meaningful silences that let each story breathe.
The result of a three-year process of personal search and reconciliation, N2STAL5IA brings together compositions written between Madrid and Mexico, where Natalia experiments and expands her own sonic language without losing the pop essence that defines her. The artist collaborates again with producer Pau Riutort and adds great creative allies like Barry B, Gara Durán, Andry Kiddos, and Diego 900.
The collaborations complete the emotional map of the album: Un castigo, with Jesse Baez, adds warmth and sensuality in one of the project’s most intimate duets; Te enamoraste, with BEA1991, reinforces the atmospheric character of one of the key tracks; while Mal de dos with Natt Calma and UnDosTres with Nilusi expand the album’s universe from two different but deeply connected sensibilities.
The creative direction of the project is led by Alfredo Santamaría (gothic sport), who visually translates this new emotional and sonic stage of Natalia.
