She Wolf

She Wolf (Spanish: Loba) is the eighth studio album by Colombian singer-songwriter Shakira, released on October 9, 2009, by Epic Records and Sony Music Latin. As executive producers, Shakira and Amanda Ghost enlisted collaborators including The Neptunes, John Hill, Wyclef Jean, Lukas Burton, Future Cut, Jerry Duplessis and Timbaland. Musically, the record shifts from her traditional Latin pop and pop rock musical styles, instead exploring electropop, with influences of folk and world music.
Four singles were released from the album. Its lead single "She Wolf", along with its Spanish-language version "Loba", was a commercial success and reached the top ten in several countries. "Did It Again" (along with its Spanish-language version "Lo Hecho Está Hecho") was released worldwide as the second single, except in the United States, where its release was substituted by "Give It Up to Me"; both singles attained moderate commercial success. "Gypsy", along with its Spanish-language version "Gitana", was released as the fourth and final single off the album and was commercially successful. Shakira embarked on The Sun Comes Out World Tour in late-2010 to promote She Wolf.
Upon its release, She Wolf was met with generally favourable reviews from music critics, many of whom complimented the unusual and distinguished nature of the album. The album debuted at number fifteen on the Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 89,000 copies in the United States. In doing so, it became Shakira's first studio album to miss peaking inside the top ten of the chart, since Dónde Están los Ladrones? (1998). The album proved more successful elsewhere, reaching number one on the charts of Argentina, Ireland, Italy, Mexico and Switzerland. It also charted inside the top five of countries like Spain, Germany and the United Kingdom. She Wolf was certified double-platinum in Colombia and Mexico, platinum in Italy and Spain, and gold in countries like France and the United Kingdom. She Wolf has reportedly sold more than two million copies worldwide.
