Karol G’s new Netflix documentary, Tomorrow Was Beautiful, isn’t just a behind-the-scenes tour film—it’s a raw, revealing portrait of a woman reshaping the narrative in Latin music.
The doc follows Karol during her record-breaking Mañana Será Bonito stadium tour, the first of its kind by a Latina artist. Despite initial doubts from critics, the tour shattered expectations—ranking 11th in global concert grosses for 2023 and bringing in over $155 million from nearly a million fans.
But beyond the numbers, Tomorrow Was Beautiful offers something more intimate. We see Karol fall in love with fellow Colombian artist Feid, open up about her struggles with a hormonal condition that impacts her weight, and reflect on what it means to be a woman in a male-dominated reggaeton industry.
One moment that sticks: Karol recounts a disturbing early encounter with a much older manager who tried to manipulate her into a romantic relationship when she was just 16. The aftermath nearly ended her music career before it began. Her family eventually went into debt to help free her from the contract—and she slowly rebuilt.
We also learn how she stood her ground when people tried to talk her out of naming a song Bichota. Critics warned it was too controversial. She went with it anyway. Now? The word is hers.
The doc also touches on her fears about dying young—she even makes sure her producer knows what to do with her music if the worst ever happens. That fear hit close in 2024, when her private jet filled with smoke mid-air. Her entire family, including her baby niece, was on board.
Karol G isn’t just a star. She’s a survivor, a risk-taker, and a woman rewriting the rules in Latin music—and Tomorrow Was Beautiful shows all of it.
