Background

edit

In December 2019, Cabello released her second studio album, Romance, which mainly focuses on the theme of falling in love. It debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 and number one in Canada.[2] She released collaborative songs with other artists in the same year, such as Shawn Mendes' "Señorita" and "My Oh My" featuring DaBaby. On July 14, 2021, Cabello first teased new music, using her Instagram account by sharing a close-up of her face along with the caption, "listos?" which translates from Spanish to English as "Ready?".[3] On July 16, 2021, Camila announced via her social media accounts that the lead single from the album, "Don't Go Yet" would be released on July 23.[4] On the same day, she confirmed the album title.[5]

There's definitely some surprises on the album, perspectives people haven't heard me come from before, things I haven't talked about before. And sonically, a whole new kind of landscape for me that draws on a lot of my roots, I'm Cuban-Mexican. Drawing from my childhood.

— Cabello on the album's content and inspiration, Released[6]

During a YouTube series Released the singer revealed that a track, titled "Celia", features vocals from her cousin, Caro.[6] During an exclusive interview with Enrique Santos, Camila teased a track called "Lola" that features Cuban singer Yotuel.[7] During a July 2021 interview with Los 40, the singer revealed there are songs on this record "that are only in Spanish and that have a completely different sound" than her previous work.[8] On February 21, 2022, Cabello announced the record's second single, "Bam Bam" featuring Ed Sheeran, to be released on March 4.[9] On March 3, she confirmed that Familia would be released on April 8, 2022.[10] A week prior to the album release, on March 31, Cabello revealed the album's track list on her social media.[11]

Conception and influences

@Camila_Cabello

#DontGoYet is the first song from my next album, Familia. This album was inspired by two things: family & food. Your family by blood, but also your chosen family. Who you want to sit at the dinner table, get wine-drunk, & dance in the living room with.

To me, those are the moments that make me glad to be alive, those moments of collective joy & true vulnerability & connection with other people. I hope you enjoy it & I hope it inspires many wine drunk kitchen dance parties for you & your familia.

July 22, 2021[12]

Familia means "family" in the Spanish language. According to Cabello, the album is about connecting with her roots. It was influenced by the "manifest collective joy" she felt during the COVID-19 pandemic, stemming from the "similar experiences of connecting" she has with her family. During a July 2021 interview with Apple Music, the singer explained that the concept of the album involves "a similar theme of being together with loved ones" and that she came up with the theme after being isolated at home due to the pandemic in 2020. Throughout the pandemic, Cabello "has gotten closer to her roots and has prioritized her family".[13] Camila wanted to manifest it to be "that kind of family affair selfishly, because it would make me happy" and "would make my life better and that's what I want". In November 2021, Camila explained to Billboard, that a lot of the album was inspired by her relationships: "my relationships to my family, my relationship to my friends, my relationship to my partner... it's all about connections with other people".[14]

Writing and recording

edit

According to Cabello, Familia started with her and Scott Harris writing a multitude of songs in her bedroom in Miami. They travelled to Los Angeles, where they met Mike Sabath and Ricky Reed, both who ended up producing the album with Cheche Alara.[6] The making of the album has been referenced by Cabello as "definitely the most honest and unfiltered that I've been", presenting the singer's experiences in the past years that she "hasn't really experienced or said any of these things before".[15] Cabello didn't know if she was going to create an album inspired by Latin music, as Familia was originally conceived as pop music. However, meeting Alara and Edgar Barrera "made it felt natural".[16] One of the first songs the singer wrote for the album was "Hasta los Dientes", followed by "La Buena Vida" and "Bam Bam".[16] She described the process as "an evolution of [her] feelings and [her] life". Cabello was able to "take the time to do it and write it over a period of a year and a half, where [she] was in a relationship and then [she] wasn't".[16] "Quiet" was the last song to be included on the tracklist, as when looking at Familia's final line-up, Scott Harris and Cabello felt inspired to finish the song to ensure it was included.[17]

"Lola" was written while the San Isidro Movement was taking place in Cuba.[16] The song pays homage to the movement where people protested in the streets of Cuba against the dictatorship that has existed there since 1953.[16] Cabello contacted the "Patria y Vida" singer Yotuel, who wrote his part of "Lola" and sent it to Cabello.[16] While recording the song, she thought about "that situation in [her] life, and how different it would have been if [she] had stayed there".[16] While recording "Psychofreak", Cabello had feelings of vulnerability and embarrassment. She felt "very anxious" in the studio and improvised a lyric.[16] When she finished recording the track, she felt "terrible and embarrassed", but she later stated it was one of her favorites.[16] The song is based on the singer's anxiety and the struggle of trying to be present despite feeling paranoid or insecure.[16]

Composition

edit

The standard edition of Familia consists of 12 tracks. Willow, Ed Sheeran, María Becerra and Yotuel provide guest vocals on "Psychofreak", "Bam Bam", "Hasta los Dientes" and "Lola", respectively.

Songs

edit

The first track, "Familia", is a 17-second trumpet opening. "Celia", the second track, is sung in Spanish, and features Cabello's cousin on background vocals and a dusky, minor-key groove.[18][19] The song is about a boy falling in love with both a Cuban girl and her Latin culture, and it's titled after Cuban-American singer Celia Cruz.[20][21] The third song, "Psychofreak", an electropop and trip-hop[18] track, features Willow, and covers the topics of mental health and dissociation; the song contains references to Cabello's split from Fifth Harmony in 2016.[19][22] The upbeat fourth track, "Bam Bam", featuring Ed Sheeran, is a tropical-inspired pop and Latin-pop song[23] over a salsa-infused and reggaeton production.[24]

"La Buena Vida" ("The Good Life"), the fifth track, is a mariachi track based on feelings of loneliness while in a long-distance relationship.[22][19] The sixth song, "Quiet", is a synth-pop song that talks about how physical closeness with a romantic partner helps dealing with anxiety. In "Boys Don't Cry", a slow R&B ballad, Cabello comforts her lover while helping him reconcile with his own masculinity.[citation needed] "Hasta los Dientes" ("Even the Teeth"), the eighth track, is a nu-disco and reggaeton-disco song that features María Becerra and focuses on an all-consuming, obsessive love.[18][19] The ninth song, "No Doubt", is a Latin-influenced song that has a topic of sexual jealousy and the anxieties that come with a relationship.[19]

The tenth track and lead single "Don't Go Yet" is a Latin pop, pop and tropical love song about being together with someone and never wanting to be apart from them.[25][26][27] The song is accompanied by a Latin influenced production consisting of strings, maracas, drums, trumpets, flamenco guitar and handclapping overlapping as beats.[28][27] The eleventh song, "Lola", features Yotuel, and is a Latin jazz, R&B[18] and folk ballad narrating the story of the eponymous Cuban girl Lola and the struggles of growing up with a lack of resources and opportunities.[19] The closing track, "Everyone at this Party", is an acoustic ballad detailing the aftermath of a breakup.[22]

Familia was met with positive reviews upon release. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from professional publications, the album received an average score of 76, based on nine reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[69]

Reviewing positively for NME, Nick Levine called the album "[Cabello's] richest and most compelling album yet", having delved into her heritage and psyche.[19] In a similar review, Rolling Stone critic Tomás Mier wrote that the album is "an imperfect yet revealing mosaic of Cabello's Cuban-Mexican heritage". While noting the multiple changes in style as quite disorienting, Mier complimented the album's raw and honest lyrics, comparing it to reading Cabello's diary.[22] In a review for The Guardian, Alim Kheraj praised the album's vibrant Latin motifs—"honest and humming with artistic intent"—and noted the recurring theme of "self-sabotage and paranoia".[72]

Clash Magazine reviewed positively, saying "Familia is Cabello revitalised, marking a shift in sound much closer to home. This album truly feels like a love letter to Cabello's Cuban roots, luxuriating in the vibrancy of Latin pop and allowing it's bright, joyous flow to melt away the heartbreak."[76] Stereo Gum said, "Cabello processes the last 10 years of her life — on her raw third album, Familia, which she has called her best album so far. Honestly, I agree with her" and with (Familia) "Cabello is on a solid path in her growth from a radio-friendly singles artist to a cohesive albums artist."[77]

Writing for Pitchfork, Olivia Horn commended Cabello for embarking on a "more immersive exploration of her musical heritage" on Familia and "abandoning the revolving-door approach" of her two previous albums in favor of working with a smaller group of "Latin pop veterans". On Cabello's vocals Horn wrote that "even when she's mad, Camila sounds like she's having fun", producing an album that "swings big and often hits".[74]

In their mid-year review Rolling Stone included Familia on their Best Albums of 2022 So Far, commenting, "this album's Latin-pop banger "Hasta los Dientes," and lead single, "Don't Go Yet," showcase Cabello's natural ability to make the sounds of her culture accessible to any audience, regardless of language. At times, the stylistic shifts can give the record a bit of a mod-podge feel, but the artist holds it together by keeping us engaged with her story".[78]
