Becky G to Release New Album ‘Encuentros’ in October, Shares New Single
Becky G will release a new album on Oct. 10, the singer confirmed Thursday with the release of a new single dubbed “Como Diablos” (via Kemosabe Records/Sony Music Latin/RCA Records). Her fourth studio album will be called “Encuentros,” and falls in alignment with the dates of her upcoming tour, “Casa Gomez: Otro Capítulo (Another Chapter).”
“Casa Gomez: Otro Capítulo” is an extension of Becky’s first headlining tour. The trek was in support of her 2023 album, “Esquinas,” which included collaborations with Peso Pluma, Ivan Cornejo, DannyLux and other outstanding acts from the new wave of música mexicana that has been gaining momentum across the last few years.

In a post uploaded to her social media, Becky wrote, “My last album Esquinas started a fire within my creative soul that brought new colors to my world and deep down inside I knew I couldn’t stop there… So I didn’t. Since last year, I continued discovering, feeling, healing and creating. All of the parts of me that I found along the way, I have now poured into this album with so much love and dedication. You guys said you wanted more, and so did I. Por las Esquinas de la vida, nos Encontramos otra vez (“On each corner of life, we’ll find each other again.”)
Her new single “Como Diablos,” is a continuation of that trumpet-powered musical style, and was written by Sara Schell and Hector Enrique Guerrero, who also co-wrote her earlier release, “Mercedes.”
Becky will embark on a tour of Mexican-American communities across the United States, starting off in Chicago, Illinois, and making 14 stops in cities including Milwaukee, San Antonio, Phoenix, Houston, Dallas, and San Diego.
