Rosalía fans, order your "Chicken Teriyaki" to go — and get ready to see her live in concert.
On Monday, the 28-year-old Spanish performer announced the Motomami World Tour, her first-ever worldwide run of concerts in support of her third studio album Motomami, set to span 46 dates across 15 countries from this summer through the end of 2022.
Beginning with a string of July shows in the singer's native Spain, Rosalía's tour will then hit venues throughout Latin America for the rest of summer, followed by an extensive North American run including New York's Radio City Music Hall and more Latin American shows before wrapping in December with several European dates including London's O2 Arena.
The "Con Altura" singer teased the tour announcement in an Instagram post on Sunday, writing, "Atencion motomami$$ mañana anunciO aLGO😻😻😻😻," which translates to, "Attention motomami$$ I'll announce something tomorrow."
Released in March and preceded by singles including The Weeknd collaboration "La Fama" and "Chicken Teriyaki," Motomami was met with critical acclaim from publications including Pitchfork, which named the album "Best New Music." The 16-track set charted at No. 33 on the Billboard 200, marking Rosalía's first entry on the United States albums chart.
Ahead of the album's release, the musician partnered with Rockstar Games in December 2021 to debut Motomami Los Santos, an in-game radio station hosted by Rosalía and experimental electronic musician Arca, for Grand Theft Auto Online: The Contract.

In November 2021, the singer spoke to Rolling Stone en Español about creating feminist music in hopes of providing a "counterbalance" to sexist and hypermasculine tropes commonly perpetuated by male musicians, especially in her genre.
"I haven't always found female figures who write in a rawer way, particularly in music or Spanish folk music. It's easier to find those figures in English music rather than Spanish music," the Grammy winner told the outlet, adding that the "issues" are a "reflection of society."
"I also believe it's not only a reggaeton issue. It's a reflection of society. If this is happening in music, it's because there's something happening at a social level, in the real world," Rosalía continued. "So, we better ask ourselves what is going on and what we still have to do in that regard."
General on-sale tickets for the Motomami World Tour will go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. local time here.
