Sale el Sol (English: The Sun Comes Out) is the ninth studio album by Colombian singer and songwriter Shakira, released on 19 October 2010, by Epic Records. The album marks a musical return to Shakira's "roots" after the electropop record She Wolf (2009). The singer split the album into three "directions": a romantic side, a "rock and roll" side, and a "Latino, tropical" side. The latter two "directions" experiment with rock and merengue music, respectively. As co-producer, Shakira enlisted collaborators including Josh Abraham, El Cata, Gustavo Cerati, John Hill, Lester Mendez, and Residente Calle 13.
Five singles were released from Sale el Sol. The lead single "Loca" topped the charts of Italy, Spain, and Switzerland. The title track, "Sale el Sol", was released as the second single. The third single "Rabiosa" reached top ten positions in Austria, Belgium, Italy and Spain. "Antes de las Seis" was released as the fourth single. "Addicted to You" was released as the fifth single. In the United States, "Loca" topped the Billboard Hot Latin Songs, Latin Pop Airplay, and Tropical Songs charts. Shakira embarked on The Sun Comes Out World Tour in late-2010 to promote the album.
