This is the English version which features British rapper Dizzee Rascal. Finally here's the studio vesion! The uptempo pop tune with lots of reggaeton influence serves as the lead single from Shakira's upcoming album "Sale El Sol" - in stores later in 2010. "Loca" was produced by El Cata and Pitbull. Actually "Loca" is a remake of El Cata's own song "Loca Con Su Tigre". Shakira's new single samples the exact same beats. Anyways, I'm loving the song, loving it already from the previews and videos that were released online. Shakira has a smash here! Although I think I'll like the Spanish version better though. And probably "Loca" will be more of a hit in Spanish-speaking countries. Moreover, Shakira's new album will be fully in Spanish although it seems all the singles will have an English counterpart.
