Spotify and FC Barcelona Celebrate ROSALA's MOTOMAMI' With a Special Shirt and In-App Fan Experience

One year ago this week, Spanish superstar ROSAL A released her album MOTOMAMI to massive fanfare-and the accolades quickly followed. In 2022, ROSAL A was the most-streamed Spanish artist globally, with streams of her tracks on Spotify growing by more than 110% year over year. And in Barcelona, she was also the most-streamed female artist on Spotify last year.

So when football fans around the world come together on Sunday to watch FC Barcelona take part in another epic El Cl sico clash, we're thrilled the club will be celebrating the first anniversary of her album. Players will step onto the Spotify Camp Nou pitch wearing a special Barcelona home shirt that features ROSAL A's MOTOMAMI album logo, much like they did when they commemorated Drake's landmark achievement of 50 billion streams with a limited-edition OVO shirt.

We're honored to give up the Spotify space on the FC Barcelona shirt to celebrate ROSAL A, who is the top Spanish artist on Spotify in 2022, said Marc Hazan, Spotify's VP of Partnerships. It's a chance to continue the celebration of our unique partnership with FC Barcelona and continue to bring the worlds of football and music together.

In addition, when FC Barcelona Femen takes part in the women's El Cl sico on March 25, they'll also be wearing the MOTOMAMI kit during the match.

The MOTOMAMI shirt is a dream come true for ROSAL A, who played as a forward during games both at school and at home, and grew up watching Bar a legends like Messi and Samuel Eto'o-and now counts herself among Pedri's fans. It's particularly special given that many FC Barcelona players, including Alexia Putellas and Robert Lewandowski, count themselves as top fans of ROSAL A on Spotify.

It makes me very excited that such a big club like Bar a will wear the shirt, and even more, in such important games! ROSAL A exclaimed to For the Record. Football and music have such similarities when it comes to the emotions you live in a concert and in a game. The concentrated human energy, so many people living that same moment, putting all their attention into an event.

And for fans who really want to show their love for ROSAL A, there are also super-limited-edition, collector's item shirts that are signed by all of the FC Barcelona players who start the men's and women's El Cl sico matches respectively.
