A Personal Journey Towards Identity
Born in Mexico City and raised in Sweden, Sofía has spent her life navigating between two worlds. From a young age, the simple question, “Where are you from?” sent her on a journey of self-discovery that became the muse for her music. As she sings in the song: “I’ve spent my life… right there in the middle, between the sea and the shore… between country and city.” The artist explains that this feeling of having a “divided soul” became even clearer when she returned to Mexico, only to find the same question of belonging followed her to her home country.
An Anthem for a Global Generation
This emotional and cultural journey has culminated in “Alma Dividida,” an anthem of acceptance and empowerment for the first truly global generation.
Sofía questions the need to choose between cultures, singing: “If the moon comes out without warning, if flowers grow without caring where they are, why do I have to wither, why do I have to limit myself, why do I have to justify myself?” With this track, she not only puts an end to her own search but also offers a point of connection for immigrants, migrants, and anyone with multiple roots.
The Future of Alternative Pop
Sofía’s rise on the international music scene is undeniable. Her debut album, Morena, has received widespread praise, and the artist has already shared the stage with greats like Jay de la Cueva and opened for three sold-out Zayn shows in Mexico City’s Palacio de los Deportes. With her music, Sofía is not only breaking continental barriers but also setting a precedent for the future “divided souls” that will soon dominate the world. If you want to join this movement and listen to her new single and the album Morena+, don’t wait.
