**Kali Uchis Shares Summer Playlist, Opens Up About Grief, Motherhood, and New Album**
**[City, State] – [Date]** – Grammy-winning singer and songwriter Kali Uchis is riding a wave of both personal joy and profound sorrow as she releases her highly anticipated new album, *Sincerely*. The Colombian-American artist, who welcomed her first child in early 2024, also navigated the heartbreaking loss of her mother during the same period.
“Becoming a mother has taken my feelings up like seven notches,” Uchis revealed, adding that the duality of these experiences has unlocked new depths in her artistry. *Sincerely* is described as Uchis’ most personal and vulnerable work to date, exploring themes of motherhood, grief, love, and the importance of embracing life. The album features soulful, introspective tracks produced largely by Uchis herself, foregoing collaborations to maintain a raw, intimate feel.
“It’s about being a dreamer, a lover, a griever, and an overthinker,” Uchis explained, “but at the same time, it’s a reminder to embrace a life of enjoyment despite the world and your circumstances.”
In preparation for her upcoming tour, which kicks off in August and will include her son and partner, rapper Don Toliver, Uchis has curated a high-energy playlist of nostalgic, joyful jams. Featured in Bazaar’s Summer 2025 issue, the playlist is inspired by her childhood and memories of her mother. One standout track is Magazine 60’s “Pancho Villa (Star de Cantina),” a synth-pop single that evokes fond memories of her father’s clubs in Colombia.
“I’m excited for [my son] to see my show,” Uchis shared. “When I perform this album, it’s going to be so different from before. I think I will feel a lot more.”
*Sincerely* is available now on all major streaming platforms.
