Shakira took a personal struggle and channel it into a song that fans want to hear whenever, wherever.

"I had a really bad year after my breakup and writing this song was so important to me," she shared during a March 10 appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." "It's been a healthy way to channel my emotions."

The track, which features lyrics that seemingly shade PK and his new girlfriend Clara Chia Marty, broke 14 Guinness World Records discussed during his appearance on the talk show.

How did Bijarap and Shakira come together? It all came crashing down when Shakira got into her DMs with the Argentinian DJ. But before Bizzarappe and the "She Wolf" singer entered the studio, Shakira and Peake's son Milan, 10, the older of their two sons, had a vision.

"He told me, 'Mom, you have to do a collaboration with Beezerrap. You have to do a song with Bzrp because you guys are going to be number one,'" Shakira told host Jimmy Fallon."And he sent a voice note to my manager, Jaime He said, 'You've got to put my mom on a song with Beezerrap because they're going to be number one.' And he was right."

Bzrp and Shakira and Gerard released "Bzrp Music Sessions, Volume 53" in January, seven months after announcing their split.

After unveiling the track to the world, Shakira declared during an interview with the Mexican channel Canal Estrellas on February 27, "I use my voice and give it to people who can't use their voice. As Madeleine Albright says, it's a phrase that I love. , 'There is a special place in hell for women who do not help others.' And yes, I totally agree with that."

During that same discussion, Shakira shared that her life had changed in the midst of their breakup, as had her perspective.

"I also believed the story that a woman needs a man to complete herself," she said. "I also had dreams of having a family where the kids' mom and dad were under the same roof. Those dreams don't come true, but life has a way of compensating you somehow.
