Speaking toRolling Stoneduring a cover story interview released Tuesday, the “SAOKO” singer reflected on the moment she earned the album of the year award at the Latin Grammys in November.

She continued, “Starting an album isn’t a big challenge if you have dreams about it but finishing it … that’s another thing.”
Elsewhere in the interview, she opened up about the process and challenges she faced while finishing the record.
“It was one of the toughest times in my life. I wanted to go back home so bad, but I knew that if I went back, I’d be putting the project at risk,” she said. “There was a high probability that I wouldn’t finish it.”
But in the end, it was all worth it.
“I feel like onMotomami, I did and said exactly what I wanted to say and do, on my own terms,” she said. “After this, there’s no turning back.”
The Spanish singer and the Puerto Rican star made their relationshipInstagram official in September, following Rosalía’s birthday.
Since then, they’ve kept the details of their relationship largely under wraps — with a few sweet public appearances in between.
The couple attended the Latin Grammys together in November. That same day, Alejandro dedicated a post to his girlfriend.

The “La Fama” singer expressed a similar sentiment.
“Thank you so much to the Grammys for recognizing me in this moment, but this year is more special than ever because I’m sharing it with the love of my life,“she wrotein a post of her own.
Meanwhile, in October at her tour stop in Inglewood, California, the “Todo De Ti” singer joined his girlfriend onstage during her performance of “Despechá” and they shared a kiss.
