Prometo ({{Translation|I Promise}}) is the fourth studio album by Spanish singer-songwriter Pablo Alborán. It was announced on 9 October 2017 and released on 17 November 2017 through Warner Music Spain.{{cite web|url=http://www.laopiniondemalaga.es/cultura-espectaculos/2017/10/09/prometo-nuevo-pablo-alboran/960430.html|title= 'Prometo', lo nuevo de Pablo Alborán|publisher=La opinion de Malaga|date=9 October 2017|accessdate=31 January 2018}}

Background

In an interview with Billboard, Alborán explained the title as "...a promise to myself, to be honest to my emotions -- and at the same time, a promise to my fans. I promise to make music until death. On the other hand, I think that when you promise, you build up courage and maturity. We feel secure to fulfill that promise."{{cite web|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/latin/8038259/pablo-alboran-prometo-album |title=Pablo Alboran Takes His Romanticism to Another Level on New Album 'Prometo'|publisher=Billboard|date= 14 November 2017|accessdate=31 January 2018}}

Reception

Amazon said "Alborán doesn't steer too far away with his unique voice and music styles from previous albums, however he does take some tracks to more up-beat tempos than we've heard from him in the past. The first two singles were released just a few weeks ago... [and] both have become some of the most played, viewed Latin pop songs in recent months and they have definitely set the stage for a strong album release."{{cite web|url=https://www.amazon.com/Prometo-Pablo-Alboran/dp/B075X5VKVN|title=Prometo by Pablo Alboran (amazon)|publisher=amazon|accessdate=31 January 2018}} Nacho from Vibes of Silence gave the album 6.5 out of 10 saying there is "too much alternation between the ballads and more relaxed rhythms and the electronic and ethnic tints that some of the tracks have" but added "Pablo always deliver[s]. He has a privileged voice, with an incredible facility to transmit emotions and a remarkable talent to compose."{{Cite web|url=https://vibesofsilence.com/pablo-alboran-prometo-a-not-so-obvious-evolution/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180203065036/https://vibesofsilence.com/pablo-alboran-prometo-a-not-so-obvious-evolution/|url-status=usurped|archive-date=February 3, 2018|title=PABLO ALBORÁN "PROMETO": A NOT SO OBVIOUS EVOLUTION |publisher=Vibes of Silence|date=8 December 2017 |accessdate=31 January 2018}}
