Kenia Os, 26, has revealed that she is preparing to enter what she calls her “empowerment era.” The singer closed the chapter on her Pink Aura album with the release of her concert film Kenia Os: La OG and told Teen Vogue that her next project will represent her more authentically.
Kenia, whose real surname is Osuna, said, “I want to start dropping some hints. I can tell you that all this year I’ve recorded what I believe to be more than 40 songs. At the same time, I’m working on a lot of other projects that I’m excited about.

The Malas Decisiones singer also teased that she hopes to embark on a major tour in 2026. “It’s very beautiful to know that I’m going to be able to let this side of me out soon and find empowerment in that energy,” she said.
“Next year, I’m going to be on tour everywhere, so start saving! If you save two pesos a day from now until next year, you’ll be able to buy a ticket to my show. [Laughs.] I’m dying to sing for my fans again, and I’m so excited to see them on tour.”
© Medios y MediaKenia began her career in 2015 as a YouTuber, regularly uploading vlogs to her channel. After building a loyal following, she joined a larger team of creators, and in August 2018, she signed with the label Lizos Music and released her debut single Por Siempre. She later signed with Sony Music Mexico and, in 2022, released her first studio album, Cambios de Luna.
Kenia has described the transition from YouTuber to Grammy-nominated artist as “complicated.” “It’s been a process with many lessons,” she explained. “I believe a lot of artists go through a similar process to believe more in themselves each day and be more confident. It’s been very complicated because the more I believe in myself and try to do things better each time, there’s this giant wave of hate that always follows me that tells me that ‘I’m not an artist’ or ‘I can’t achieve this or that.’”
She added that the experience has made her tougher and “more confident.”
