Rosalía is redrawing pop’s map at a stunning pace. But when the earthly map felt complete, she spoke directly from the heavens: LUX. The Spanish superstar’s fourth album is a heartfelt offering of avant-garde classical pop that roars through genre, romance, and religion. For all its scholarship and borderless histories, LUX isn’t a massive homework assignment; it’s an operatic lament for a new generation, an exquisite oratorio for the messy heart. With her as its lodestar, LUX advances like a crusade to conquer the mysteries of human existence.
