MIAMI, Feb. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Chart-topping Colombian singer/songwriter Sebastián Yatra (@SebastianYatra) released his genre-bending 17-track third studio album 'Dharma' last week with multi-platinum certifications, 2.3 Billion combined streams, and today the body of work ranks #1 on Spotify's US & Global album debut charts. The 47th most streamed artist on YouTube is building pillars for Latin music across his massive single releases including the current powerhouse single ('Tacones Rojos') which enters Spotify's Top 50 Global today as the only song from a Latin pop solist, the 8x platinum hit ("Pareja del Año"), his 4x platinum smash ("Chica Ideal"), and the Latin GRAMMYs nominated ballad "Adios" - all released last year! Sebastián Yatra's platinum single 'Tacones Rojos' continues to prove the hitmaker's strength for creating music, standing tall as a leading pop song among an otherwise reggaeton-dominated genre, with +271.7 Million streams and growing exponentially on global streaming and radio charts. Sebastián Yatra's album 'Dharma' showcases the music maker's continued versatility across music styles. The album, and title-track, are inspired by the word. "Dharma is part of life's journey." Sebastián Yatra writes. "It is destiny. It is natural. It flows and it's what is meant to be. It's about accepting reality and receiving life for what it is."

"Sebastián Yatra has been on winning streak." - BILLBOARD LATIN

"Only Sebastián Yatra can pack a 17-track album with rock, cumbia, reggaetón, and a Jonas Brothers collab. The Colombian singer's third studio album, Dharma, is a versatile record that's sure to bring fans to their feet."
- ROLLING STONE

"...Colombian singer-songwriter Sebastián Yatra positions third studio album Dharma as a satisfying deep dive into his artistry and point of view.... Across 17 tracks, Yatra takes chances with his brand of Latin pop, from the emotional balladry of "Tarde" to the sun-kissed dance of "Tacones Rojos" to the riotous pop-punk of "Las Dudas," and comes across as a natural star within all of them." - BILLBOARD

"There's a newfound sense of serenity and gratitude within Sebastián Yatra."
