POP diva Shakira has given her home crowd a taste of her latest album Oral Fixation before heading to New York for its worldwide release. "My music cannot be classified as typically Latina," she said. "Sometimes I have used bits of our culture, as in the song Suerte (Luck), with some Andean instruments, but La Tortura (Torture) has a lot of us in it."La Tortura, already released as a single, has pushed fellow Colombian Juanes from the No.1 spot of the Billboard Latin music charts. The Lebanese-Colombian star said she does not see the recent worldwide success of many Colombian musicians as cause for rivalry. "I admire Juanes and Carlos Vives," the 28-year-old said. "I like Soraya and Los Aterciopelados," she said.
"Colombian music is recognised around the world, which makes me proud," she said. Shakira's first album in two years includes a duo with Spaniard Alejandro Sanz. It will be released in 60 countries including Australia on June 7.
