The highly anticipated work is a new milestone in her award-winning career after inking a deal with Capitol Records under the Inter-scope Capitol Labels Group. Uchis announced the title of her album in a video teaser on her social media platforms, sending fans into a frenzy across the globe. With a history of chart-topping work and genre-defying music, Sincerely will be a new milestone in her music career.
A New Partnership with Capitol Records
Kali Uchis’ unveiling of Sincerely comes on the heels of the news that she is signing on with Capitol Records. The agreement will propel her career to even higher levels as she will continue to be handled by Matt Morris, vice president of A&R for Interscope Geffen A&M. Tom March, chairman and CEO of Capitol Records, had glowing words regarding the partnership, stating, “Not only is Kali Uchis a true artist with an exceptional vision and enormous talent, but she is a changing cultural force. Her music has no boundaries, and it is an honor to begin this new chapter with her.”.
This is something that ensures Uchis’ place among the most innovative artists in contemporary music. Her ability to blend genres such as R&B, Latin pop, funk, and bossa nova has seen her receive acclaim from critics and a loyal fan base.
Building on Past Success
Kali Uchis has consistently demonstrated that she is versatile as an artist without losing her unique sound. Her most recent album, Orquídeas, released in January of 2024, was her best-selling album up to that point, entering the Billboard 200 chart at No. 2. It also received Grammy nomination for Best Latin Pop Album and Latin Grammy nomination for Best Pop Album.
What Fans Can Expect from Sincerely
Although information regarding Sincerely is not public, fans can expect Uchis to drop more experimental and daring music. With her contemplative lyrics and experimental textures, she will certainly draw on love, identity, and resilience—standbys of her past work.
Uchis has been heavily engaged in the creative process of her albums her entire life. She has, in previous interviews, stressed the need to be herself as an artist: “I didn’t want to be influenced by contemporary music or by my friends. Taking the risk of creating things that don’t sound like anything else at the moment makes music interesting. This desire for something different informs us that Sincerely will present new visions and new sounds.
A Quiet Rise to Stardom
Kali Uchis’ music career has been a steady process of growth and experimentation. From her self-released mixtape Drunken Babble in 2012 to her platinum-selling major-label debut Isolation, she has proven herself to be a genre-bending artist who will not be categorized.
Her ascent has been anything but typical. Speaking in interviews about having survived struggles in her early life, Uchis has been open about having had homeless periods in her teenage years, and family relationship problems. Drawing inspiration from these, these formative life experiences influenced the unflinching honesty that pervades her music.
Cultural Impact
In addition to her musical success, Kali Uchis is also famous for her cultural and representational influence. As a Colombian-American singer, she has brought Latin rhythms into mainstream pop music without losing the authenticity of her roots. Her bilingual songs have crossed borders all over the world, building cultural bridges and fostering inclusivity.
Tom March’s description of Uchis as a “transformative cultural force” attests to the manner in which she has exceeded traditional parameters in music. From fashion collaborations to activism, she continues to draw fans in through her authenticity and creativity.
