If I have the chance to say something, I will say it - but that doesn't obligate me to always say something, or to shed light on every problem, as if I were a lawmaker.
Education is important because it prepares you for life.
I've always been surrounded by many great people and professors, but my family, especially my mom who was a teacher, was the person who encouraged me to study and pushed me to continue. When we're young, we don't understand why our parents bug us so much with school and doing homework, but it's a blessing to have that support at home.
I like being comfortable at airports, in flip-flops with no jewelry on.
For years, decades, the system has taught us to stay quiet. They've made us believe that those who take to the streets to speak up are crazy, criminals, troublemakers.
Being a Puerto Rican artist, I support all kinds of projects that are developed on my beautiful island that in some way or another put our Puerto Rican flag up.
To me, the most important artists in my career are Arcangel and Balvin. Arcangel gave me the push, the respect in the streets.
The fame isn't important to me. It's a blessing to have. Having so many people that support me, that love me and listen to my music, is beautiful.
Puerto Rico's relationship with music is everything. It's an island full of talent and if you grow up there, you grow up living and breathing music.
The world can criticize me, but l can always criticize it back.
I always liked different things, rare things.
