Camila is the eponymous debut studio album by Cuban-American singer and songwriter Camila Cabello. It was released on January 12, 2018, through Epic Records and Syco. Work on the album began in January 2017, following Cabello's departure from the girl group Fifth Harmony. The project was originally titled The Hurting. The Healing. The Loving., with Cabello's debut solo single "Crying in the Club" intended as the lead single. The album was later retitled Camila with "Havana" serving as its official lead single due to the rising success of the song, and "Crying in the Club" was cut from the final track listing. "Havana" became an international success, topping the charts of multiple countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada, France, the UK, and the US, and reaching the top 10 of several others. Primarily a pop record, it also incorporates elements of R&B, dancehall and Latin music. Camila was produced by Frank Dukes, Skrillex and T-Minus, among others.
Camila was met with generally positive reviews from contemporary music critics, many of whom commended the Latin influences and ballads. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, earning 119,000 album-equivalent units of which 65,000 came from pure album sales. "Never Be the Same" was released as a single on December 7, 2017, reaching the top 10 in several countries. "Consequences" was released to contemporary hit radio as the album's final single on October 9, 2018, and an orchestra version was serviced to hot adult contemporary radio in October 22. Cabello promoted the album through televised performances, her Never Be the Same Tour, and as an opening act on Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour. Camila was nominated for Best Pop Vocal Album at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.
