Karol G Goes Fully English for the First Time on "Still," a Devastating Duet with Bruno Mars

By Phillipe Blake·12 August 2026·3 min read

Karol G's seventh album is a 14-track emotional epic featuring Bruno Mars and Drake — and "Still" marks the first time she's ever recorded a song entirely in English.

Karol G doesn't do things by half. Her seventh studio album, No Me Arrepiento De Sentir Tanto — roughly, "I Don't Regret Feeling So Much" — dropped on 7 August, and its thesis is right there in the title: no apologies for feeling everything, all the way through. Fourteen tracks move across love, heartbreak, anger, nostalgia, hope and healing, sequenced deliberately so the album plays less like a collection of singles and more like one long emotional arc, front to back.

The featured-artist list alone tells you how big a swing this is: Bruno Mars, Drake, Greg Gonzalez, Judeline and Rusowsky all show up across the record, alongside production from Cashmere Cat, Tainy, Ovy On The Drums, Edgar Barrera and Sky Rompiendo, among others. But the track drawing the most attention is "Still," her duet with Bruno Mars — and for a very specific reason: it's the first song of Karol G's career recorded entirely in English.

That's a real milestone for an artist who's built a GRAMMY and eight-time Latin GRAMMY-winning career largely in Spanish, and it shows in how carefully "Still" is written. It's not a flex or a crossover play — it's a quiet, devotional ballad about loving someone past the point where it's easy. "I'd still sleep in your sweat, I'd still feel you in the dark," the chorus runs. "I'd still keep all your letters, I won't tear them apart... 'cause I'd still love you, even with a broken heart." It's the kind of hook built to be sung back by a stadium full of people who've felt exactly that — which, given Karol G is mid-way through her Viajando Por El Mundo Tropitour right now, is about to happen a lot.

The album's rollout has been unusually patient for an artist at this level — visual teasers, the "Matadora" release, an official announcement mid-tour, a cinematic album trailer, and the tracklist only revealed days before release. It's the kind of campaign that trusts the music to do the talking once it finally lands, rather than front-loading everything into a single moment.

No Me Arrepiento De Sentir Tanto is out now on all streaming platforms. "Still," featuring Bruno Mars, is track six.

Fourteen tracks, five features and a genre map that runs from alternative pop through Latin rhythm to something closer to atmospheric balladry — No Me Arrepiento De Sentir Tanto is a big, deliberate swing for an artist who's already won everything there is to win in her own language. "Still" is the track that proves it: not a crossover stunt, but Karol G choosing to be most vulnerable in the one language she's never trusted with a song before. Whether that risk pays off is now up to the millions of stadium voices about to sing it back to her.
