Karol G and Ice Spice are the only Latinas featured in the ‘Barbie’ soundtrack
Dua Lipa, Lizzo, Nicki Minaj, Pink Pantheress, and Khalid are on the list too
While we (not so) patiently wait for the summer and the premiere of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie, Warner Bros. announces the film’s soundtrack, which includes Karol G and Ice Spice.
The Colombian and the Dominican descent singers are the only Latinas on the list, which includes Tame Impala, Haim, and Charli XCX.
As Rolling Stone reports, Dua Lipa, Lizzo, Nicki Minaj, Pink Pantheress, and Khalid are on the list too. Although they are not singers, Ryan Gosling (Ken) and Margot Robbie (Barbie) also feature on the soundtrack. The playlist is set to be released on the same day as the movie, on July 21.
Karol G took to social media to share the news and tease that her track is a reggaeton. “I’ve been wanting to record songs that reminded me of Panamanian classics that I danced and sung many years ago, and I still enjoy today,” she wrote.
