Puerto Rican-born, London-based artist Ivelisse Del Carmen delivers her most intimate and fearless work yet with “Sin Filtro,” a track that dares to blur every line — between genres, between strength and vulnerability, between fear and freedom. Fusing reggaeton rhythms with orchestral strings, Spanish guitar, and even operatic touches, Ivelisse crafts a sonic world that feels both deeply rooted in her Caribbean identity and elevated by her classical training.
“Sin Filtro” is a mirror — reflecting the messy, complicated emotions that come with self-doubt, rejection, and the search for authenticity. It’s a song born out of anxiety but shaped by courage. When Ivelisse sings about confronting the “spider” of her ego, afraid to be hurt, you can feel the ache of someone standing at the edge of her truth and finally choosing to leap. This isn’t a dancefloor anthem — it’s “reflection music” — reggaeton reimagined through the lens of a woman reclaiming a genre that was once silenced and shamed in her homeland.
Producer Paul Stanborough (Tina Turner, Kylie Minogue, Robbie Williams) helps translate Ivelisse’s vision into something cinematic and cohesive. His touch ensures that the song’s reggaeton heartbeat never overshadows her voice — instead, it moves with it, amplifying her honesty rather than masking it.
Following her previous releases “An Ocean In Between” and “Las Mariposas,” “Sin Filtro” feels like the moment Ivelisse stops apologizing for who she is. It’s poetic, powerful, and unapologetically real — a love letter to authenticity in a world addicted to filters.
‘Sin Filtro’ is both a confession and a reclamation of power.
