Only two days after revealing that her first-ever Spanish-language EP, Revelación, will be released this spring, the 28-year-old Mexican American singer has dropped the Rauw Alejandro-assisted and Tainy-produced single “Baila Conmigo.”
“Dance, dance, dance with me/ Dance, dance and I’ll follow you/ Come closer, come get loose/ Don’t leave me without making me want to come back,” Gomez sings on the flirty track (translation via Genius).
The song comes two weeks after “De Una Vez,” a rhythmic pop song about healing and self-worth that was produced by Tainy, Albert Hype, Jota Rosa and Neon16.
Gomez also unleashed the official music video for “Baila Conmigo.” While Gomez only appears for a few seconds, the vibrant video is still a visual treat, as two young lovers dance on a beach and ride motorcycles.
The 28-year-old Mexican American singer/actress has officially announced plans to release her first-ever Spanish-language EP is set on March 12.
Titled Revelación, the album will follow Gomez’s singles “De Una Vez,” which arrived on January 16, and the Rauw Alejandro-assisted “Baila Conmigo,” which will be released on Friday, January 29.
“Revelación, my first ever Spanish EP, is out March 12,” the singer tweeted to her over 60 million followers. “Preorder it tomorrow at 9am PT.”
News of the EP comes a day after Gomez announced the Tainy-produced “Baila Conmigo.” She shared a photo on social media that shows Selena rocking her shoulder-length hair, a fitted dress with a red-orange spotlight.
Earlier this month, the multi-hyphenate dropped “De Una Vez,” her first Spanish single in a decade, produced by Tainy, Albert Hype, Jota Rosa, and Neon16. In the song, Gomez opens up about healing from a previous relationship and discovering her self-worth.
The rhythmic pop tune scored Gomez her second top five on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songschart as “De Una Vez” debuts at No. 4 on the January 30 survey, which arrives two years since her first No. 1: DJ Snake’s bilingual “Taki Taki,” which also features Ozuna and Cardi B.

Selena Gomez is giving you a look behind the scenes…
Just seven days after the release of her Spanish-language single “De Una Vez,” the 28-year-old Mexican American singer released the behind-the-scenes video directed by Hunter Simmons.
In the three-plus-minute video, the singer and actress is with her team as she’s getting ready to film the video.
“This is my first Spanish song that I’ve done, I think, since I was maybe 18, 19?” she said.
In the empowering song, produced by Tainy, Albert Hype, Jota Rosa, and Neon16, Gomez opens up about healing from a previous relationship and discovering her self-worth.
“Ya no duele como antes, no/ La herida de tu amor sanó,” she kicks off the track.
“De Una Vez” marks Gomez’s first Spanish-language track in more than a decade.
“I spent hours trying to perfect the language and I also know some of it growing up but it has been really fun to step into it and it’s just a whole different world,” she added.
In the behind the scenes clip, Gomez is filming different scenes from the official music video directed by Los Pérez (Tania Verduzco and Adrián Pérez), rocking her very own Rare Beauty makeup collection, and even making reference to her Disney Channel days.
The 28-year-old Mexican American singer/actress has released her highly anticipated Spanish-language song “De Una Vez,” a rhythmic pop track that touches on healing and empowerment.
“I am incredibly proud of my Latin background,” Gomez said about her new single in a statement. “It felt empowering to sing in Spanish again and ‘De Una Vez’ is such a beautiful love anthem.”
The track, produced by Tainy, Albert Hype, Jota Rosa and NEON16, premiered alongside a music video directed by Los Pérez.
The visual finds Gomez in a mythical house surrounded by magical visuals, where she steps into rooms representative of her evolution.
Toward the end of the video, the words “Baila Conmigo” emerge, hinting at a potential second Spanish single.
Following the release, she posted on Twitter: “This is the beginning of something I’ve wanted to explore for so long. I hope you love it as much as I do.”
It’s safe to say that fans love “De Una Vez” already, with a fan posting, “Selena you sound so good the vocals I’m shaking.” Another wrote, “it’s a masterpiece.”
Earlier Thursday, Gomez confirmed she was dropping a Spanish song, releasing the cover art for “De Una Vez.” She then retweeted her 2011 tweet where she had teased Spanish music was coming. “I think it will be worth the wait,” she added.
“De Una Vez,” released via Interscope Records and UMG, drops just a few days after zealous fans started speculating on social media that she’d drop Spanish-language music soon after several murals promoting new music were spotted across Mexico. “Mexican Selenator took a picture with a painted wall in Sayulita, Mexico,” the fan page Selena Gomez Worldwide tweeted.
The song is the singer’s second Spanish-language track. She released “Un Año Sin Lluvia,” the Spanish version of her hit single “A Year Without Rain,” in 2010.
