Nathy Peluso’s Growth on ‘Grasa,’ Performing With Karol G & More | Billboard News

After a four-year hiatus, Nathy Peluso is back with her new album, Grasa. She talks about how it encapsulates her growth from her 20s to her 30s, how her dad inspired the title, her various collaborations including Blood Orange, Ca7riel, Paco Amoroso and more!

Isabela Raygoza:
You also play the guitar, right?

Nathy Peluso:
I do, but with these nails it’s impossible. When I go to the studio, I cut them.

Isabela Raygoza:
I was looking at your nails and how beautiful they look. 

Nathy Peluso:
So grasa, so red.

Isabela Raygoza: 
They’re grasa.

Nathy Peluso:
Yes, grasa!

Isabela Raygoza: 
I’m using the word, too.

Nathy Peluso:
Hi, I’m Nathy Peluso, and this is Billboard News.

Isabela Raygoza: 
Thank you for coming. We saw that you were a guest on Karol G’s tour. That was incredible.

Nathy Peluso:
She is very generous, she invited me to play in Buenos Aires, which means a lot to me. That was the first time we sang “Gato Malo,” which is the song we’ve had together for years. We’ve never played it together like that in person and it was super special. She has a very gigantic, beautiful, spectacular show, and I also love her very much as a friend. It was very special.

Isabela Raygoza: 
Grasa is the name of your album. I think it’s an incredible and catchy name, isn’t it? Tell me, why Grasa?What’s the story?

Nathy Peluso:
This album took a lot of time and phases of my life, searching for what I wanted to say. In the end, it all showed in this album. And I wanted the title to come on its own. I didn’t have a title. I did all of the album without the title.
