De Adentro Pa Afuera

“*De Adentro Pa Afuera* is, without a doubt, the title of this chapter of my life,” Camilo tells Apple Music. The Colombian singer-songwriter behind pop hits for himself and several others experienced a bit of an artistic revelation after stepping out on tour for the first time since the pandemic. “I discovered that the songs that were born from the inside belong to those who are out there,” he says. “That encounter changed my life and inspired many ideas that are now part of this album.” Leading with “Aeropuerto,” a coyly romantic opener that conjures promises of a spontaneous escapade, the inherently personal new record finds Camilo sharing his feelings in the spirit of that live concert run while preparing for more shows ahead. As the title suggests, he’s mindful of the transition from inside to outside faced by nearly everyone, and expresses that through collaborations with a seemingly disparate set of artists, from Alejandro Sanz to Camila Cabello to Myke Towers. Naturally, he’s gone deeper into genre spaces that overlap or abut pop music, performing música mexicana with Grupo Firme on “Alaska” and soothing his daughter on “Índigo” with Evaluna Monataner. “After being completely hermitic to welcoming our first baby,” he says, “now we pack a suitcase with new songs to go around the world and reunite with La Tribu again.”
