Discover the Magic of Irama’s Heartfelt Spanish Ballad “Lentamente”

Chart-topping Italian singer-songwriter and rapper Irama (@irama.plume) introduces an impassioned, gut-wrenching ballad “Lentamente,” his first release in the Spanish language. This release follows the Italian version released earlier this week supporting his performance at the Sanremo Festival, which will see him duet “Say Something” by Christina Aguilera and A Great Big World, in collaboration with Arisa. “Lentamente” was written by Irama with Blanco, Giuseppe Colonnelli, and Michelangelo in production.

With “Lentamente,” Irama takes yet another bold step, delivering a song that speaks to the universal pain of heartbreak, proving once again that his music is as boundless as the emotions it evokes. Irama’s ability to reinvent himself and embrace new sounds makes “Lentamente” a natural step in his artistic evolution. The song is a crossover moment, highlighting his deep appreciation for Latin music and his ambition to connect with listeners beyond Italy.

“Lentamente” marks a natural evolution of Irama’s genre-defying artistry, weaving elements of pop and alternative rock into an intimate, soul-stirring experience. Following his new Billboard Italia cover feature, this release reaffirms Irama’s status as one of the most compelling and versatile voices in contemporary music.

In his own words, Irama explains, “With this song, I sing about a visceral love that slowly destroys itself on both sides until it crumbles. ‘Lentamente’ is a different song for me, with raw and transparent lyrics that lay me bare.”

As he enters this new chapter, Irama is ready to introduce his powerful storytelling and genre-bending sound to a global audience. With his distinct voice, undeniable charisma, and ability to fuse cultures through music, “Lentamente” is just the beginning of Irama’s international journey.

Irama’s artistry is deeply rooted in his early love for music, inspired by the poetic storytelling of legendary Italian singer-songwriters like Fabrizio De André and Francesco Guccini. Irama began writing songs at the age of seven, drawn to the power of music as a vessel for introspection. This early passion paved the way for his breakthrough in 2016 when he competed in the Sanremo Festival with “Cosa Restarà,” a track that not only introduced him to a national audience but also earned him a gold certification. From that moment on, Irama’s career was a relentless climb, fueled by his ability to blend soulful lyricism with genre-defying soundscapes.

Whether dominating the pop charts with multi-platinum summer anthems like “Nera” and “Mediterranea” or captivating audiences with the heart-wrenching balladry of “La Ragazza Con Il Cuore Di Latta” and “Ovunque Sarai,” Irama has consistently pushed boundaries. His ability to shift between introspective, emotionally charged storytelling and high-energy, rhythmic tracks has solidified his reputation as one of Italy’s most innovative and compelling artists. His 3x-platinum album “Il giorno in cui ho smesso di pensare” further demonstrated his range, seamlessly merging rock, pop, and urban influences.
