International Latin pop superstar, Dulce Maria, returns to the music scene in collaboration with MTV with the song “Es un drama”, the theme song for the network’s third novela “Ultimo Ano”. The music video will premiere as part of “El Making of” special on MTV Latin America on Tuesday, August 7th at 8pm (Mex/Arg/Col). Additionally, on Wednesday, August 8th, the video will be available via social media websites (#DulceMariaMTV) and online.

“Es un drama” was written by Mexican singer Paty Cantu and is performed by Dulce Maria exclusively for “Ultimo Ano”. The music video, produced and directed by MTV Latin America’s creative team, was taped last May in Mexico City. The video shows Dulce Maria and the novela’s cast at an after party tearing a house apart. Warning: Extremely sexy scenes featuring Dulce Maria as never seen before!!!

“Dulce Maria has proven to be one of the most popular Latin music performers and a favorite of MTV Latin America’s audience,” said Marc Zimet, Vice President of Music and Talent for VIMN The Americas. “Es un drama” is the perfect combination of original, entertaining and distinctive music for MTV’s new novela”.

“Es un drama” is Dulce Maria’s comeback to the music scene since her successful solo debut in 2009 with Extranjera and in 2011 with Extranjera p2. This new theme song features more of a “rock” vibe than her previous work. Currently, she is producing her new album which will premier in late 2012.
