Her appearance[17] on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in April 2021 with Lunay received a lot of press coverage in Argentina, as she was the first Argentinean artist to perform on the show.[18][19]

On 28 October 2021, she presented her latest album "Parte de Mí", where tracks from early in her career were joined by new songs. Featured in this album are several artists admired by her, such as Rauw Alejandro, Delaossa, Dread Mar I, and Trueno.[20]
