Candy (Rosalía song)
2022 song by Rosalía
"Candy" (stylized in all caps) is a song recorded by Spanish singer and songwriter Rosalía. It was released on 18 March 2022 through Columbia Records as a promotional single from her third studio album Motomami (2022). The song was written and produced by Rosalía herself alongside El Guincho, Frank Dukes, Noah Goldstein, Michael Uzowuru and Tainy.
"Candy" is a mid-tempo reggaeton track featuring pop and electropop elements, filtered instrumentation and light vocals. The song title references the 2014 track of the same name, by Puerto Rican duo Plan B. "Candy" samples "Archangel", performed by Burial, which samples "One Wish", performed by Ray J.
An accompanying music video for "Candy" filmed in Shibuya, Japan and inspired in Sofia Coppola's Lost In Translation was shared on YouTube upon the release of Motomami. Commercially, "Candy" entered major market charts including the Argentina Hot 100, Swiss Hitparade, and the Billboard Hot Latin Songs, and became the singer's eighth number one single on the PROMUSICAE chart in Spain. A remix featuring Chencho Corleone of Plan B was included in the deluxe version of the album, released later that year.
