As Latin pop has found its place in the United States, Shakira has grown to be one of the genre’s brightest stars and most captivating sex symbols. But despite all the glamour, the secret to the Colombian diva's impact is her voice -- a powerful, resonant instrument that sets her apart from her chart-topping peers. That voice finds its ideal forum in the intimate environment of MTV Unplugged, where Shakira is joined by a cadre of talented musicians on a variety of acoustic instruments, providing soulful, rootsy versions of her material. Stripped of their familiar studio gloss, such gems from Dónde Están las Ladrones? as "Si Te Vas," "Tu," and "Ojos Así" reveal surprising luster, as Shakira delivers her provocative work with unfiltered emotion. The engaging live performance captured on Unplugged, already a Latin Grammy winner on CD (for Best Latin Pop Album), should be a staple in every Shakira fan's library.
