Lasso Breaks Down 5 Essential Tracks From His New Album ‘Objetos Frágiles en Ambientes Hostiles’

"It's a dedication to anyone who's trying to achieve their dreams," the Venezuelan singer/songwriter tells Billboard Español. 11/6/2026 Lasso Bryan Flores In his new studio album, Objetos Frágiles en Ambientes Hostiles, Venezuelan singer/songwriter Lasso delves into themes such as love, heartbreak and the contradictions of human relationships through 11 tracks that showcase an artistic evolution within his pop sound. Released on Friday (Nov. 6) by Lasso Party under exclusive license from Interscope Records, the set includes previously released singles like “p0rn0grafía,” “superpoder,” “Tu Lunar” and “¡¡¡FELIZ ANIVERSARIO!!!,” alongside new tracks such as “preguntas que me hago,” “Perdóname por esta canción” and “PESADILLAS.” It also features two notable collaborations: the focus track “Borracho Otra Vez” with Ana Mena, and “Ojalá Que No Te Quiera Nadie” with Nina. Produced by Manuel Lara, the album is rich in nuances, with new textures and arrangements that expand Lasso’s sound, catchy lyrics and his sweet, raspy pop-rock voice. It also marks his first release after parting ways with Universal Music Mexico, the label behind previous projects of his like Eva (2023) and Malcriado (2025). “I’ve been writing [Objetos Frágiles en Ambientes Hostiles] for two years,” the Latin Grammy-winning artist tells Billboard Español. “I wrote about 200 songs; I’d never written so much before. But this album also comes from a period where I couldn’t release music — I was leaving a record label, and there’s a cool-off period during which you can’t release anything — so all I did was write, write, write. There were moments when I was very sad, and others when I was very happy.” Out of those 200 songs, he selected the 20 best and, with the help of friends and colleagues, finalized the ones that would make the tracklist. The oldest among the 11 is “PESADILLAS,” while the newest is “¡¡¡FELIZ ANIVERSARIO!!!.” Regarding the album title, which means “Fragile Objects in Hostile Environments,” Lasso explains that “it’s a dedication to anyone who’s trying to achieve their dreams.” “The fragile objects are the dreams, and the hostile environment is the world that receives them, telling you, ‘You can’t do it, you’re not good enough, there are already too many like you, or there are too few like you,’ depending on what you’re doing,” he elaborates. “And it’s about that daily struggle of saying, ‘What I’m doing is amazing, and I’m going to convince you, no matter how hard it is.’” Below, Lasso breaks down five essential tracks from Objetos Frágiles en Ambientes Hostiles. “Borracho Otra Vez” with Ana Mena “Borracho” is a song that was one of the first ones I chose for the album. It felt very straight to the point. I loved what the chorus said and the typical repetition of “borracho” (drunk) — that “sorry if I call you again, but I’m drunk again,” which is very much something a drunk person would repeat… so I felt it was a very strong chorus. It’s a song that originally started out sounding very Post Malone, very low-energy, but [producer] Manu Lara said: “No, no, let’s go all the way up; this needs to be a song you scream at a festival,” which I loved. And I loved the crossed harmony he added in the chorus. This song is also like two songs in one, which is a beautiful thing to mention. [The other] is called “Voy a Recordarte Más Tiempo del Que Te Conocí” (“I’m Going to Remember You Longer Than I Knew You”), and I love that line. I was missing a part C within the song, and fortunately we were the same composers, so I added it. It’s that break you hear at the end that says that beautiful line, which ties in perfectly with “sorry if I call you again”: “The only thing I want to know is if you think about me the way I think about you/ And after that, I’m going to remember you longer than I knew you.” Listen to it here “Preguntas Que Me Hago” Is the most special song on the album for me. I think it’s one of the most honest songs I’ve ever written in my life. Everything written there is real. It was a moment when I went out with someone where everything clicked, everything worked, everything was perfect. The only thing was that she lived very, very, very, very far away. So you’re sitting there, and in your mind you’re trying to find a way to make it work. It’s ridiculous no matter how you look at it: her job and mine don’t match, this woman lives on the other side of the planet, and you’re trying to figure out how the heck you can make it work. And those are the questions you ask yourself. I think the chorus always has to be the synthesis of what you’re saying, and the synthesis is that — “I’m terrified I won’t find someone like you.” I think it’s a very beautiful song, and it has a lot of soul. I wrote it in Madrid — it just came out, like vomiting, super fast — with a songwriter named Pablo Luis Cebrián Valera, a prominent figure in Spain. Pablo and I connected very quickly. That was the first song we made together… It’s a song that I love to sing, that carries so much power in its interpretation. “Superpoder” Another of the most personal tracks in the album, is the song that allowed me to have a relationship with my girlfriend, [Chilean actress Isidora Vives]. We were at a house in Chile as friends; she was my friend, we had been friends for a while and talking about the kinds of things friends talk about, and I started to like her. I had my guitar with me at that moment, and I remember she said to me: “Can you write a song right now?” And I had never done that before, never in my life had I written a song on the spot. But in that moment, I was trying to win over this woman, so I wrote “Superpoder” right in front of her in 10 minutes, with that line that I find so beautiful: “If I could have a superpower, I’d want you to love me.” I remember finishing it — it was a song that was obviously saying to my friend that she should stop being my friend and become my girlfriend — and she asked me: “And who is this song for?” And I said: “Please, woman, for the love of God, it’s so obvious and evident that this song is for you!” It was through that song that we became a couple. Listen to it here “p0rn0grafía” That’s a song I came up with one day while I was in the shower. I was in Miami at a horrible hotel, on tour, and I remember I had to rush to the studio. I had a show the next day, and I decided to do some sessions because I love writing. So I spoke with two of my best friends who are producers of almost everything I’ve done, Orlando Vitto and Renzo Bravo, and I told them, “Let’s write this song.” We called [Colombian songwriter] Valentina Rico, another great collaborator, and I came to them with this melody [and the lyric] “tu boca con la mía, como pornografía” (your mouth with mine, like pornography). I don’t have many sexual songs, but this one had that vibe, and everything was so clear to me, and it came out intensely too. Right away, I felt, “This song is going to be important.” This song had everything I wanted people to know would be in my new album: it had a new sound, I was talking about things, my vocal performance had improved a lot. So this was a great first single, and this song has been one of the most successful ones, the ones with the best numbers. I felt this song was different because of how people received it, and it’s a song I love performing live. “Perdóname Por Esta Canción” “Perdóname Por Esta Canción” (which means “Forgive Me For This Song”) is a song that comes straight from the soul, and it’s very legacy — a very beautiful ballad. This song was originally going to be part of an album I wanted to create with Cami at some point, a project that didn’t come to fruition due to scheduling conflicts, and this song, which I absolutely loved, was left behind. It’s a very human song that literally talks about asking forgiveness from someone with whom you no longer have any kind of contact because things didn’t work out. And so, it’s a song that kind of breaks the fourth wall in itself, like: “I thought the song I was going to write for you would be a love song because we were together, but no, this is a song that talks about how things didn’t work out, and I’m so sorry… And every time you hear this song, remember that I did love you and that I truly regret that things didn’t work out.” This is a song that went through many different productions, many modifications. I tried everything with this song, and it ended up exactly like it was in the demo. I wrote it with Raquel Sofía, with whom I’ve written countless songs in my repertoire.
