HuffPost
The Colombian pop star revealed what has made her "wince or cringe" about her early songs.
Shakira shared a blunt take about her yodel singing technique as she looked back at how she sounds on older tracks.
The Colombian pop star, in an appearance on First We Feast’s “Hot Ones” YouTube series, weighed in after host Sean Evans asked what what makes her “wince or cringe” when she listens to her early career work. (First We Feast and HuffPost share a parent company, BuzzFeed, Inc.)
“So many things. I think I used to overdo the cries in my voice,” said Shakira, who is fresh off the release of her album “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran.”
“Yeah, I think it was exaggerated, a little baroque, you know? Too much Shakira.”
Evans had referenced Shakira’s recent interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 where she said her voice has continued to change over the years and remarked that she “used to suck.”
