Camila Cabello drops 'Don't Go Yet' same day as Kanye reveals 'Donda' and fans love 'new era'
As promised, Camila Cabello shared 'Don’t Go Yet' with her fans on Friday, July 23. It will be her first new single since the end of 2019 when she released her album 'Romance'. Philippa Price and Pilar Zeta star in the music video for the new tune. Her upcoming third full-length album, 'Familia', will feature the song.
The well-known Cuban-American singer keeps her fans up to date by posting interesting photographs from the official music video on a daily basis. So far, the ‘Senorita' singer has released two full-length albums, ‘Camila' in 2018 and ‘Romance' in 2019.

Her self-titled debut album has debuted at the top of the Billboard 200 album list. Since then, the former Fifth Harmony member has delivered a slew of hits, making her one of the top global singers. Cabello first announced her new single ‘Don’t Go Yet’ on July 16 via her official Twitter account.
Cabello is seen driving a vintage automobile while changing the radio station and is carried away in a joy ride before the scene zooms out and exposes the small, tropical scene in a claymation-style cut, according to two Easter egg-filled previews for the music video. Cabello rings the doorbell to a pink home on top of the world in the second clip, which takes up where the first one left off, Billboard reported. 'Bienvenidos a la Familia!' read a banner for the single in Spanish, which translates to 'Welcome to the Family!'.
The 24-year-old singer dropped the music video on Friday, July 23, with a post that read: "#DontGoYet is the first song from my next album, Familia. This album was inspired by two things: family & food. Your family by blood, but also your chosen family. Who you want to sit at the dinner table, get wine-drunk, & dance in the living room with."
