To me, family is first. ”

We want to change to point of view about Latinos in the world and Colombians. Forget about the bad past. ”

I like to change and switch it up. I don't want to sound like anybody else or sound the same. I always have to reinvent myself. ”

Part of what we did is change that misconception that reggaeton is machista and misogynist. On the contrary, women are our biggest fans, and they inspire us. ”

I want to change the perception about Latinos worldwide. I think people don't know yet how cool we are. ”

We are making music for the human race, and even beings from other galaxies are welcome to vibe with us. ”

I think music is to have fun. It's for people to have a good time with. ”

When I was, like, 12, I remember grabbing a mic, pretending it was a guitar, and performing in front of my friends. I didn't know at the time I wanted to be an artist. ”

I don't have to work with superstars - I want to work with cool artists that make super music. ”

Mexico is a Latin powerhouse. And Mexicans, they're known as hard workers. Here in the U.S., not everybody wants to do those kinds of jobs. I've lived. I know what it feels like and what they go through and how families suffer. ”
