"'Como Al'" is an unreleased song by Spanish singer and songwriter Rosala. Written by the performer alongside English singer-songwriter James Blake, Brittany Hazzard and habitual collaborators Frank Dukes and El Guincho. The track was scheduled be released as a promotional single for the singer's MAC Cosmetics benefic campaign on September 24, 2020, though Sony Music, but never premiered on streaming platforms nor was available for digital download. The track references the 1968 'Esquire Magazine' cover where Muhammad Ali is portrayed, as the martyr Saint Sebastian.

Background



In March 2019, Rosala started her first world tour in Argentina. Its setlist included four unreleased tracks, one of them being "Como Al". The track was sung at almost all stops of El Mal Querer Tour and became a fan favorite. During the COVID-19 lockdown in the United States, the track was revamped to serve as the main song for her future consmetic campaign. On August 24, 2020, "Como Al" was registered on ASCAP. Five days later, MAC Cosmetics announced on social media that a new face for Viva Glam would be revealed soon. Rosala was announced as the brand's new face on August 31. A new red lipstick by MAC was revealed to be released in North American stores on September 24. The brand had this to say about the Spanish singer and its new product: "taking its roots in flamenco, Rosala's art mixes genres and emotions: she takes risks, she is full of generosity, she is pure brilliance. She's a dynamic feminist who inspires self-expression and represents creativity and individuality. Thus, this lipstick contains charisma, energy and strength". All proceeds will be destinated to organizations that "will help support women and girls, people affected by HIV/AIDS and the LGBTQ+ community".

That same day the singer told 'Elle Canada' that, by the time the spot aired on TV and the benefic lipstick was released, she would be dropping a new song titled "Como Al".

Music video



A music video for "Como Al" directed by Canadian filmmaker Gordon Von Steiner was shot in Garraf in early January 2020. This will serve as another promotional item to incentive the product's sales as well as to promote the song and the singer's career. It features Rosala dressed in red in a desertic ladscape accompanied by almost twenty dancers.
