Mañana Será Bonito (Bichota Season) (Spanish for Tomorrow Will Be Pretty (Bichota Season)) is the upcoming fifth studio album by Colombian singer Karol G. It is scheduled to be released on August 11, 2023, through Bichota and Interscope.[1]

Background

Following the release of her fourth studio album in 2023, Mañana Será Bonito, Karol G announced the release of "S91" through her social media accounts.[2] The song was released on July 13, 2023, as the album's lead single. At the end of the accompanying video for "S91", the release of Mañana Será Bonito (Bichota Season) was teased.[3] On July 31, 2023, Karol G announced the release date of the album alongside its title and cover art.[4] Mañana Será Bonito (Bichota Season) is set for release on August 11, 2023, coinciding with the release of Karol G's upcoming concert tour, the "Mañana Será Bonito Tour".

Title

The title Mañana Será Bonito (Bichota Season) references two previous Karol G projects: her fourth studio album, Mañana Será Bonito, and "Bichota", single belonging to her third studio album, KG0516.

The phrase "Mañana Será Bonito" (Spanish for tomorrow will be pretty), came from Karol G repeating it every day when she didn’t feel good. In an interview with Rolling Stone, she revealed: "The name of the album is a phrase I kept repeating to myself when nothing felt great. I mean, I was going through the best moment of my career, but personally I was really disconnected from myself and from my friends. I wasn't unhappy, but I wasn't happy either. So every day I'd say to myself, 'It's okay, mañana será bonito, tomorrow will be beautiful."[5]

The word "Bichota" comes from the Puerto Rican slang 'bichote".[6] A "bichote" is an individual who due to his economic or political position, is considered important or influential, generally related to the sale of drugs. Despite this, Karol G gave the word a new meaning for her song, stating: "It's a moment of feeling sexy, flirtatious, daring, strong, empowered, and to a certain extent, translates into personal motivation and self-confidence. We are all super 'Bichotas' inside. It’s about believing and working so that the rest of the world can see it too."[7]
