It featured two singles "La Fama,"" and "Saoko", the album received a worldwide acclaim and was named the best-reviewed album of the year by Metacritic. Rosalia has had ten top one singles in her native country over her entire career. This is the most she has ever achieved for an artist from the country. She has also won two Grammy Awards, eleven Latin Grammy Awards (including two Album of the Year wins) as well as four MTV Video Music Awards, an MTV Europe Music Award, three UK Music Video Awards and two Premio Ruido awards, among other awards. Billboard gave her the Rising Star Award in 2019 for "changing the sound of mainstream music with her flamenco-inspired pop"[18[18]. She was also the first Spanish-singing artist to be nominated for the Grammys for Best New Artist.
