Shakira selects “Rabiosa” as next Sale el Sol single.

Shakira will release the sultry “Rabiosa” as the third official single from her Sale el Sol album. The song was produced by Jim Jonson, and recorded in two different languages: One in Spanish featuring El Cata, and an English cut with club favorite Pitbull.

This is probably gonna end up being a big hit across Latin America and Europe, just like her international smash “Loca”. The dance remixes to this are gonna be fierce.

To date, Sale el Sol has sold an estimated 3 million copies worldwide.

You can check out “Rabiosa” below. Cover art via WotYouGot.

    I saw one site say 4 million but it didn’t look legit and I checked world chart and the certifications and I find it VERY hard to believe it’s done 4 million off one hit song.

  • blackcanary

    not bad, but I’d preferred gordita …

  • Jesse

    Gordita better be the next hit! Rabiosa es a good song but damn she NEEDS to start promoting this better!!!

  • Andres

    Well from the 3 merengue-vibe songs this is the one that I like the most, more the version in english than spanish cause I say to before and I say it again good work of El Cata on the production and writing the gons but he sucks at his sing-rap..anyway I’m not a fan of this merengue-vibe thing of her I will prefer “Antes De Las Seis” or “Gordita” (other songs she peform on her tour with “Loca” and “Sale El Sol” the first two singles of the album) than this song since she doesn’t even peform this song on her tour..even is like a very far away dream of mine I will love to see “Tu Boca” or “Devocion” as next single (my favorite and the best songs of the album) but is like very far away dream cause I bet she will choose “Gordita” or “Antes De Las Seis” or release both at last singles of “Sale El Sol” since she peform them on tour.

    I just checked the MEDIATRAFFIC website.. and I realize that the album has been in the world chart for 20 weeks ’til this week and the sales mark 1,369,000 so that 3M and 4M sales are wrong. Even those sales is good because the album is moslty in spanish.

    by the way Rabiosa is my fav song of the whole album.. I wish she’d release addicted to you as 4th single :D

  • iamAWESOME

    Aw, she’s so pretty and all around perfect.

  • jojo

    You can’t compare mediatraffic # with real numbers. Mediatraffic doesn’t count all the countries specially latin american countries where she is huge.

    Plus i’m sure when record companies say 10 millions sold they are talking in shipments.

  • Frankie

    Yes, according to the global chart, Sale El Sol has sold 1,400,000+copies between the U.S. and some countries in Europe. The track chart does not include the Middle East, most of Asia, and Latin America. Worldwide sales are estimated at 4 million and it still has to be released in the UK. And I would love to see Antes De La Seis realeased as a single or Addicted To You.

  • James

    This song is gonna be one of the biggest summer hits worldwide!

  • Shez

    This song had better be promoted properly as it’s actually the best thing SHakira has put out in a while. DO you know if it’s gonna be released in Australia adn Asia?
