00:00It was a day full of emotions, it was a week full of emotions, with many events, singing in several very beautiful events, but yesterday was very special, obviously because I won a Latin Grammy for Best Pop Album.
00:22One always says that each album is special, but the trip, being a slightly different concept, had its risks, to make an album that each song is the name of a city.
00:37There was a moment, being completely honest, that I said I would be making a mistake, instead of going straight to the singles, suddenly making an album in the way it was promoted, I released 6-7 songs with 6-7 videos, it was a little different.
01:00Each song was the name of a city, and that creates emotion at the same time, but nerves, because you never know how people are going to understand it.
01:10I hope they give you this Latin Grammy reward, the most important Latin music award, to do it with my colleagues, to see so many people that I admire in the public, while I sang 3 songs from 3 different decades, I sang No Me Voy Provencido, Despacito and Santa Marta.
01:29It was like closing a cycle, or a circle, or something very beautiful, and that's why I got up with this hangover of love, not of alcohol because I didn't drink, but a hangover of feelings and love.
01:46Vives was also part of this album, and curiously the song that I am promoting, one of the most successful of this album, was the song that I recorded with Carlos Vives, Santa Marta.
02:01Carlos has always been an example to follow, a friend from the bottom of my heart, we have shared beautiful moments on and off stage, family moments, I admire him a lot.
02:25And the person of the year is a prize that every artist dreams of having, to see him on the night of that gala, so excited to see him with tears in his eyes, when these legends, Juan Luis Guerra, Ruben Blades singing their songs, Gloria Estefan.
02:49The cast was brutal, honored to be part of that cast, and happy for Carlos because he has fought for it, based on work, love, heart, a humble guy, a guy who smiles at life, and I repeat, an example to follow.
03:10And we are addicted to turning inspiration into music, and we need to be creating at all times, and the snowball always has to keep spinning, it can never stop.
03:29Right now I am in the cycle of the tour, which is one of the facets that I enjoy the most, besides creating, being on stage is something that I am very passionate about, but already in January, there is a small pause of the tour, I go to the studio, and I already have several coordinated sessions with producers, composers, with whom I want to work.
03:59So there I would say that the new creative cycle would begin, which I don't know where it will take me, and right now I don't want to know, it's like making a flight reservation that doesn't have a destination right now.
04:15What I know is that I'm going to get on a flight somewhere, but I don't have a destination yet, and that fills me with a lot of hope that I'm going to create, and I'll know when that next project will come out.
04:27But honestly, the present is about the tour of 25 years, which has taken me to wonderful places, there are still many shows left here in the United States, in December in Orlando, in Miami on the 22nd.
04:44Next year there are still some concerts in the Northeast, in New York, in Pennsylvania, the big closure that will be in Puerto Rico on March 15 in the Choliseo that I announced yesterday, which obviously has me super excited, to return to my land where it all started.
05:04So, celebrating many things at the same time.
05:07This year I am very excited because I am going to Puerto Rico, because if I am not mistaken, I think Micaela has never said goodbye to the year in Puerto Rico, Rocono.
05:21So, we did spend Christmas, but we are going to say goodbye to the year as a family, and when I say all, I mean dad, mom, brother, cousins, nephews, we are going to Puerto Rico, we needed that tropical heat, that rice with gandules, and I wanted my children to be there.
05:48It has been a year full of blessings, it has been a year of a lot of work, of a lot of effort, of completely new projects for me, like this movie, how to release a children's book, how to release this album,
06:11the trip that came out this year, the beginning of this tour, a 25-year anniversary, you could not write a book at a personal level, outside of the professional, at a personal level, you could not write a more beautiful book than this one, how this 2024 has emerged.
