I feel grateful for the Puerto Ricans who created this genre that has inspired me to have such a beautiful career. Reggaeton has allowed me to continue evolving and growing musically, and I have been able to make it mine as well.
I was known for singing romantic songs to women, but I can also be that guy talking about why you can't be the only girl for me.
If I can't go to my parents, then my parents come to me.
In Latin America, people want you to write beautiful melodies and words. But there are also songs that do well because they show the reality of life.
Sometimes I post something unwittingly that connects with women. But I never think, 'OK, let's take a shirtless picture for the girls.'
I'm still going to sing these songs because trap is a type of music very popular in the streets, and people want to hear it.
I love women.
I started using Twitter a lot and realized I had a lot of fans. Then I saw that I can share my music on Twitter and share my YouTube videos on Twitter. That's how I knew social media was going to be a platform to show my music. That's how I started. I started with Twitter.
I was born in the technology era.
When I started my career, I saw that everybody was using Twitter.
I don't think a reggaeton song will break again like 'Gasolina' did.
I'm an urban act.
I want to take a more international direction with my career.
I found my voice singing pop and ballads, almost all of them Colombian artists. When I was 16, my family gave me a recording session with some Colombian producers, and that's where I started my career.
I was in Barcelona working with Shakira, and it was an amazing experience. She's a great artist, and I learned a lot while working with her.
I'm trying to find the balance and do, like, 'Spanglish' music or some songs in Spanish and others in English or do a translation.
I like to prepare each tour in a different way.
My boys asked me to write beautiful letters for their ex-girls so they could get them back. I thought, 'I should be writing songs for myself.'
Ricky Martin is one of the artists I wanted to be growing up.
My life was really focused on futbol, but as those things happen in life, my passion for music won over my passion for futbol. But I love what I do. I don't regret it.
