Bad Gyal’s career began by bending a global pop hit into Catalan and continued by turning regional slang, dancehall phrasing, Auto-Tune, and club music into an identity no one else could quite imitate. From “Pai” and her homemade early singles to the Caribbean sweep of La Joia and 2026’s Más Cara, Alba Farelo has made reinvention sound less like a strategy than a refusal to stand still.

Alba Farelo Solé, professionally known as Bad Gyal, was born in Vilassar de Mar, Catalonia, Spain, in 1997. She first drew widespread attention in 2016 with “Pai,” her Catalan-language adaptation of Rihanna’s “Work.” The recording spread rapidly online and introduced an artist who was already comfortable moving between Catalan, Spanish, English, dancehall, trap, and reggaeton.
Her early self-released period also produced “Indapanden,” “Leiriss,” and “No Pierdo Nada.” Later in 2016, she released Slow Wine Mixtape, a seven-song project that included “Fiebre,” “Mercadona,” “Dinero,” and “D Way You Do Me.” The mixtape established the cool, synthetic, bass-heavy sound that would remain central to her work even as her production became more polished.
Bad Gyal expanded her international profile with Worldwide Angel in 2018. Recorded with producers including Jam City, Dubbel Dutch, Florentino, El Guincho, Fakeguido, and D33J, the nine-song mixtape included “Internationally,” “Tra,” “Blink,” “Candela,” “Tu Moto,” and “Yo Sigo Iual.” The project placed her Catalan and Spanish identity inside a wider network of global club music.
Her commercial breakthrough accelerated through singles including “Santa María,” featuring Busy Signal, “Zorra,” “Hookah,” and “Alocao” with Omar Montes. Released in 2019, “Alocao” reached number one in Spain. These recordings moved Bad Gyal from an alternative internet phenomenon into the center of Spanish-language urban pop.
The eight-song Warm Up EP followed in 2021 and included “Pussy,” “44” with Rema, “Blin Blin” with Juanka, “Judas” with KHEA, “Iconic,” “Gasto,” “Aprendiendo el Sexo,” and the Rauw Alejandro remix of “Zorra.” Later that year, Sound System: The Final Releases collected “Nueva York (Tot*),” “Slim Thick,” and “Su Payita (Gramos).”
Bad Gyal released her debut studio album, La Joia, in January 2024. Its guest list included Myke Towers, Anitta, Tommy Lee Sparta, Ñengo Flow, Tokischa, Young Miko, Morad, and Quevedo. Songs such as “Mi Lova,” “Chulo, Pt. 2,” “Bota Niña,” “La Que No Se Mueva,” “Así Soy,” and “Perdió Este Culo” presented a larger-scale version of the sound she had been developing since her earliest recordings.
Her collaborations continued through recordings with KAROL G and Sean Paul on “KÁRMIKA,” J Balvin on “Gato,” Ivy Queen on “Perdió,” Nicki Nicole on “Enamórate,” Anitta and Brray on “Double Team,” Trueno on “Angelito,” and Omar Courtz on “Comernos.” The variety of those partnerships reflected her growing reach across Spain, Latin America, the Caribbean, and international pop.
In March 2026, Bad Gyal released her second studio album, Más Cara. The nineteen-song project moved through reggaeton, R&B, dancehall, guaracha, kompa, and other Caribbean-rooted styles. Its collaborators included Ozuna, Chencho Corleone, J Alvarez, 8belial, Maureen, Jenny “La Sexy Voz,” Víctor Mendívil, Jadiel El Incomparable, and De La Rose.
Más Cara included the title song, “Un Coro y Ya :),” “Te Daré,” “Da Me,” “Noticia de Ayer,” “La Iniciativa,” “Mi Debili,” “De Por Vida,” “Fa$hion Killa,” “Choque,” “Fuma,” “Muñeca,” “Gatitas,” and “Última Noche.” Its release marked ten years since the recordings that first introduced Bad Gyal and gave her catalog a second full-length studio album.
Bad Gyal remained active after the album’s release, joining Kybba, Ryan Castro, and Topboy TGR on “Se Le Ve” in June 2026 and touring internationally behind Más Cara. Her catalog now connects her earliest Catalan-language experiments with arena-scale urban pop while preserving the vocal effects, rhythmic instincts, and visual confidence that made her work recognizable from the beginning.
