There's no path to success. Everyone constructs their own path. The important thing is to follow your heart. Find your niche, is my best advice.Collection: Success
I know Becky G, Natti Natasha, and other Latina singers, we have been working many, many years and now we have the opportunity to show what we have, to show what we have been doing for many years. Great things are happening for women in the Latin music industry.
Collaborating on 'Tusa' with Nicki Minaj came into my life unexpectedly and I wanted to keep it like that for my fans.
In my songs there are no bad words, so kids can sing them, and girls can identify with singing with them, too, because it's not like a man singing reggaeton.
My message is very simple: I'm for women, I'm about women, and I want to help create lanes for more of us.
In Las Vegas, a day before the Latin Grammys, I was walking backward and hit a light and fell down. The worst part is that I was singing with Becky G and Mau y Ricky - they all rushed over to help me. It was very dramatic.
There's a strong wave of songs by women. Even if the songs are collabs, women have the intro and the chorus, which is what people can sing. We're getting the credibility, the spaces in the award shows, and people want to hear our point of view.
Honestly, maybe I'm not as skinny as I've been at some point in my life, but I like how I look! You look at Beyonce, at Rihanna, at Jennifer Lopez and they have curves you can grab onto.
In the beginning it was very frustrating, being told girls don't sing this kind of music, and, 'Maybe you can try with pop or songs that are more romantic.'
When I go on trips, I like to have everything in one place. Someone to be in charge of the food, someone to keep things organized, and someone to attend to us. I need the house to be awesome, by the water, with all the amenities I need.
I want to be a mom. It's something that when I do have kids, I think I will retire from making music for a while.
Before I met Bad Bunny, I had this image of him from his lyrics and songs, and I met a very cultured and nice man that I could have deep conversations with.
When I saw Anuel for the first time singing live, I kissed him. That was the kiss that everyone saw.
When I get by the ocean, that's the only moment that I get that silence and that connection, not with the ocean, but with myself.
It's good to have experience in other ventures and have other goals. Like acting, having businesses, starting from zero and making something grow.
Urban music in the Spanish-language is a force to be reckoned with, there's truly something for everyone in it.
In her verse, she says: 'It's me and Karol G, and we let the rats talk.' I died, I revived, I died and revived again until I understood Nicki Minaj had said my name in her verse.
I have a personal dream to be a mom, to have a family and all that but - when I do take that break to fulfill it - I want everything else to be so strong and set that people don't forget me.
I was thinking of the parallel between the ocean, the life and the music. The ocean is everything. It's calm, but brave - it's life.
When 'Ahora Me Llama' was out, I was looking for someone to do the remix. Among those people I was looking at was Anuel, who was in jail. We tried, but it was impossible to record it because of his situation.
Obviously, I respect the expression of different artists. I do not judge or criticize the style of anyone.
What I love about 'Culpables' is that it's a completely clean song. We do not speak ill of women or men. The song is clean. It does not have bad words.
Ten, 15 years before, the Latin industry was singing Anglo music, trying to get an opportunity with them. Everything changed, and now around the world everyone is listening to our Latin music.
It surprises me that criticism on social media is worst than ever... more and more people tend to seek perfection in others.
I want to take that step, being a Latin girl, and doing my Spanish music, but I want to go global. International.
I think I'll be one of those moms that doesn't raise her kids with too much technology around because I didn't have much of that growing up. I was creative and played with what I had.
We see leaders in social media starting fights. I'm on the other team who likes to inspire, to leave a positive message.
