\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSACHA LECCA<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n \n\tThe singer released her latest album, K de Karma<\/em> (or \u201cK for Karma\u201d), in March, blending heartbreak on songs like \u201cD\u00edas Tristes,\u201d featuring Carla Morrison<\/a>, and romance on \u201cT\u00fa y Yo X Siempre.\u201d But mostly, the record finds her embracing her feminine power and sensuality on anthems like \u201cRojo Versace\u201d and \u201cSlay.\u201d \u201cI made an album inspired by the way I perceive karma and how I navigate my life. I always leave everything to divine justice,\u201d she says with a laugh. \u201cBut sometimes you need to give it a little nudge, right?\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tK DE KARME <\/em>ARRIVED during her nearly two-year romance with m\u00fasica mexicana superstar Peso Pluma<\/a>, fueling an already-intense focus on her personal life. The pair split in June 2026 while Kenia was on tour, with both stars sharing a joint statement noting they\u2019d ended things with \u201clove, respect, and on the best terms.\u201d The album has since taken on a new meaning for her fans, but also for her. \u201cThis year has been full of lessons and setbacks. So much chaos. But at the end of the day, the light always emerges after such a dark path,\u201d she says. \u201cYou have to view that darkness as something that doesn\u2019t block you, something that doesn\u2019t dim your light.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\tEditor\u2019s picks<\/p>\n<\/h2>\n<\/section>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSACHA LECCA<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n \n\tKenia keeps her eyes firmly on what\u2019s ahead, but she\u2019s well aware of the industry she\u2019s navigating. Mexico\u2019s music world is heavily focused on the male-dominated sounds of m\u00fasica mexicana and corridos. The singer recently joined rising Mexican American star Xavi<\/a> for \u201cMalas Ma\u00f1as,\u201d a corrido-meets-urban-pop track that taps into the sound dominating the charts without straying completely from her own voice. But she\u2019s also had to experience the way the industry pits women against one another. She\u2019s watched the Mexican media manufacture rivalries between her and other stars, like Belinda, the storied pop diva with whom she collaborated on \u201cJackpot,\u201d and Danna, whom she met while hosting a show for Apple Music.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cIt\u2019s always the competition between women, the morbid curiosity of women hating each other. Personally, I don\u2019t live that way. I always tell my audience and in interviews that I don\u2019t have enemies; I don\u2019t fight with anyone,\u201d she says. \u201cThey are exceptional artists, they are incredible, they are super talented.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSACHA LECCA<\/cite><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n \n\tKenia notes that men in m\u00fasica mexicana don\u2019t face the same kind of scrutiny. She also thinks it\u2019s much harder for women in pop to break through, thanks to glaring double standards. \u201cIt\u2019s very sad that we are always being compared, when sometimes I feel that male artists can show up high on a stage and nobody says absolutely anything to them,\u201d she says, alluding to the debauchery often celebrated in the genre\u2019s live shows.<\/p>\n\n\t\tA new era in progress\t<\/h2>\n
