with Limited-Edition Commemorative Vinyl
Single of "I Luv It" Made Using Sugarcane
A continuation of their multi-year
partnership, Camila Cabello and
BACARDÍ collaborate to create a limited-edition sugarcane vinyl
featuring the soundtrack to the collaborative ad spot
HAMILTON, Bermuda, July 22,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- BACARDÍ® rum is proud to
celebrate the debut of Camila
Cabello's highly anticipated new album, "C,XOXO," with the
launch of a limited-edition bioplastic vinyl derived from
sugarcane. Available for presale on
https://shop.bacardi.com/products/sugarcanevinyl starting
July 22, this exclusive sugarcane
vinyl offers fans a unique opportunity to own a piece of music
history made using a more sustainable production method than
traditional vinyl.
Showcasing an alternative to the usual PVC plastics typically
used in vinyl, this record features Camila
Cabello's first hit single from her new album, "I LUV IT",
and is crafted using repurposed materials and sugarcane from
Bonsucro ®-certified suppliers. BACARDÍ has an ongoing partnership
with non-profit organization, Bonsucro®, guaranteeing the high
standards of taste, environmental protection, and safe working
conditions for farmers of the sugarcane that is used to make its
Caribbean rum.
Partnering with Evolution Music – a team of music industry and
sustainability experts working together to make the music industry
more sustainable – this record takes several steps to reduce waste
and improve sustainability without sacrificing sound quality. The
process begins with the sugarcane, which is broken down to
create a bioplastic, which is then pressed using a lower
temperature, reducing energy consumption compared to traditional
vinyl production.
The vinyl release marks a milestone in the ongoing collaboration
between Camila Cabello and BACARDÍ,
which commenced in April 2024 with
the announcement of Cabello's first-ever spirits partnership. The
partnership debuted with a vibrant ad campaign featuring her hit
single "I LUV IT" as the soundtrack, aligning with "Do What Moves
You" BACARDÍ brand platform aimed at celebrating self-expression
and creativity.
To amplify the launch of the sugarcane vinyl, BACARDÍ is
releasing a set of videos to explain the sugarcane vinyl production
process. The first is a short-form video starring Camila Cabello, capturing the essence of her
partnership with BACARDÍ and the excitement surrounding the
sugarcane vinyl release. The second is a long-form exploration
delving into the process used to create the sugarcane vinyl.

As part of its ongoing multi-year partnership, BACARDÍ is also
introducing two new custom cocktails inspired by Camila's songs
from "C,XOXO": Chanel No.5 and BOAT. These refreshing
cocktails, perfect for the summertime, capture the essence of
Camila's new music.
To celebrate the release, BACARDÍ will be donating to Beneath
The Waves, a conservation non-profit working to support the
protection of threatened marine species and habitats. This
collaboration with Camila Cabello
and Interscope Records underscores the continuation of the
multiyear partnership, with many more exciting initiatives planned.
