Camila Cabello: Camila

Genre: Pop // Label: Syco/Epic

Background:

Leaving Fifth Harmony to pursue a solo career, Camila Cabello has found early success with her chart-topping ‘Havana.’  Camila may not be the most riveting album to kick off our 2018, but it’s sure to be a talked about (and almost certainly overplayed) pop outing that could set Ms. Cabello up for a a lot of mainstream success in the coming years.  As a debut, Camila already appears to be positioned as one of 2018’s biggest pop albums.  If you’ve managed to live under a rock for the last several months, you can hear her extremely successful single below.

“Havana”:
