00:00Hi, I'm your friend Luis R. Conriques, and I'm going to be fishing for answers with Billboard.
00:09I mean, a vacation spot is ideal, and why?
00:15I really like going to Puerto Vallarta.
00:17It's quiet, I see the beach, I walk on the yacht there, I'm going to eat there,
00:25it's a quiet place, and I like the view it has, the hills, it's very quiet and everything.
00:39This race was a race, after all that's been said, in the previous fight of my buddy Canelo.
00:50I was in the after, and we met there, and we had a good time, and I sang some songs,
01:00and our friendship continued, and he told me, you're going to sing in my fight,
01:05now that I'm coming back next year.
01:09And I told him, well, I'm going to make a run, I'm going to make a good run.
01:14So, we were looking for him and everything, and we got him out on Tuesday 13th with a violin and everything.
01:21It was his most warlike exit, he says.
01:26So, up to the Mexicans.
01:31What else is there?
01:32Where do I see myself in five years?
01:36Over there, over there.
01:38Paris, right?
01:41I'm going to Paris, grabbing Durama, buying a Louis Vuitton.
01:48What is the collaboration of your dreams that has not yet been fulfilled?
01:51The truth is, I don't have any collaboration that I would say, I would like to do this.
01:56I feel that with all the artists that I have recorded, I admire them,
02:03and if there is one that I would say I would like to do,
02:09I admire Marco Antonio Solis a lot, and I like his music a lot,
02:13but I don't see myself singing a song with him.
02:16I feel that it is something very different, but if I could,
02:19it would be like, now I would call it a dream.
02:24How did the collaboration with Peso Pluma, Siempre Pendientes, come about?
02:30It was a song that Peso sent me,
02:34it was sent to Freddy, to Freddy Cartel Music, and he showed it to me,
02:41and I had already listened to Peso Pluma before singing,
02:44so I already knew that he carried Meneo, that he was a dog,
02:50and we recorded the song, and it was the beginnings of my friend,
02:57and there he is, a good dog.
02:59What was the last big thing you bought?
03:03Big?
03:06Well, let's see, what was the last car?
03:09Oh, the G500 that is out there, the Urus, the McLaren, a Bosch.
03:20A Bosch, so heavy.
03:22Where do you see regional music in five years?
03:24In five years? No, worldwide, it's already worldwide.
03:26Look, in five years, it's going to dominate the world, it's going to dominate the universe.
03:32What does it mean to be on the cover of Virgo?
03:36It means a lot as an artist, as a person, as everything, as an American,
03:40I think it's an honor to be there, I'm very happy and very grateful to everyone.
03:47What else can I say? I'm going to cry.
