In May 2024, Lali was invited by Cachorro López of Los Abuelos de la Nada to collaborate on a reimagined version of their 1983 song "Mil Horas". When asked by TMH about the seventies-inspired music video, Lali discussed the direction she wanted to take with the album: "[The clip] ties in with a look and a musical exploration that wasn't initially planned, but it amazingly fits with the album I'm working on. This album is deeply rooted in the essence of Argentine rock. Even though I usually make pop music with electronic and dance influences, in this sixth album, we're incorporating sounds and elements from the seventies and eighties.

In another interview, Lali was asked what Argentine rock meant to her as a pop artist, to which she replied: "For me, rock is the essence of being Argentine. It's more than just a musical genre; it's how we Argentines connect with each other. It's my bond with my friends, my mom, and myself. Whenever I choose what to listen to, I always go for what touches my soul the most—our national rock artists and certain songs that feel like a refuge when things get crazy or when I want to feel something deeply again," and added: "I'm working on my sixth album, which has a strong identity rooted in national rock. Although I'm a pop artist, I think the genre I work in is very generous because it allows for a lot of openness. It lets me bring in elements from other genres, whether it's electronic or rock—it gives me a lot of freedom to experiment".

History
http://www.noticias1440.com.ar/?p=9145 Sony Music Argentina, a subsidiary of the global music giant Sony Music Entertainment, has played a pivotal role in the country's music industry. Its history traces back to the establishment of CBS Records in Argentina in the mid-20th century, which was later rebranded to Sony Music in the early 1990s after Sony Corporation acquired CBS Records.

CBS Records Argentina initially focused on producing and distributing tango and folklore music, genres deeply rooted in Argentine culture. During this period, the label signed prominent artists such as Astor Piazzolla, who revolutionized tango with his avant-garde compositions, and Atahualpa Yupanqui, a legendary figure in Argentine folklore.

The 1980s marked a significant era for CBS Records Argentina with the rise of rock nacional, a genre that blended rock with Spanish lyrics and local themes. The label was at the forefront of this movement, signing influential bands and artists like Soda Stereo, led by Gustavo Cerati, whose innovative sound and style had a lasting impact on Latin American rock. Other notable acts included Charly García and Luis Alberto Spinetta, whose contributions helped define the era.

In the early 1990s, after Sony Corporation acquired CBS Records, the label was rebranded as Sony Music Entertainment (Argentina). This decade saw the label expanding its roster to include a diverse range of genres. Pop music gained prominence, and the label continued to support rock and alternative acts, including the band Los Fabulosos Cadillacs.

The 2000s brought significant changes with the advent of digital music. Sony Music Argentina adapted by embracing new technologies and distribution methods. During this period, they supported artists like Diego Torres, whose hit "Color Esperanza" became an anthem across Latin America. The label also promoted Latin pop and rock acts such as Miranda! and Babasónicos, who achieved considerable success.

In the 2010s and beyond, Sony Music Argentina has continued to innovate, leveraging streaming platforms and social media to connect artists with audiences. The label has signed emerging talents like Abel Pintos and Lali, who have garnered international acclaim and continued to thrive under Sony's support.
