In our Q&a /feature series Tell Me Más, we ask some of our favorite Latine artists to share some inside info about their lives and habits, revealing everything from their most recent read to the songs that get them hyped. This month, Grammy-winning artist Goyo, a member of legendary group ChocQuibTown, drops in to talk about her latest turn as a solo act, Afro-Latine representation, and what she's got in store for us in 2024.
As reggaetón, afrobeats, and trap become global, their distinct sounds and formulas become more cemented. However, rapper and singer Goyo has always defied the confines of a single genre. As a member of the award-winning group ChocQuibTown, the sound that she helped craft along with her brother Miguel "Slow" Martinez and Carlos "Tostao" Valencia, combined elements of traditional African percussion, Colombian folk, hip-hop, dancehall, and reggaetón. Now, as she continues her musical journey, this time as a solo artist,...

"I get way more scared and embarrassed having to talk about my personal life in interviews than saying it in a song," Prince Royce admits during an interview in Los Angeles for his new album, "Llamada Perdida," which dropped Friday. With a decade-plus career that has generally been free of controversy, the Dominican American bachata artist and pop star is wearing his heart on his sleeve in his first LP since a very public divorce. Prince Royce says he has found healing through music while re-prioritizing himself and pushing the bachata genre to new places.
"Right now, I feel like I'm in a good place," he tells Popsugar. "Everybody has problems. It's just how you deal with them, and I think it's all part of growth. That's how I took in this experience in my personal life that happened in the last two years."

Prince Royce has a “weird relationship” with his new album, Llamada Pérdida, out today. The new album has 23 songs that he describes as “bachata in 4K,” as he explores genre fusions while getting in touch with his emotions. The lyrics show a more vulnerable side of the singer, including some of the difficult moments surrounding his split from his longtime partner Emeraude Toubia in 2022.
Though the music captures the singer dealing with both the heartbreak and the healing after the breakup, he’s in a much happier place now. (When...

When Gloria Calderón Kellett's "With Love" series dropped on Amazon Prime in December 2021, it hit differently from any other rom-com series or film featuring a mostly Latine cast. In this cross-generational romance, we got to experience couples falling in love - including the show's lead Lily Diaz (played by Emeraude Toubia) - in a beautiful and lighthearted way, without the trauma.
For many Latinas, Lily's character is quite relatable. She's a hopeless romantic who's in love with love. Her parents are happily married, so she's been conditioned to believe that if you find love, get married, and have kids, your life will be perfect. But in season two, Lily starts to realize that her idea of happily ever after in love doesn't actually exist.
For Toubia, this is an unrealistic standard that she once set herself.

It stands to reason some classic rock songs would take inspiration from the Bible, the most popular book of all time. For example, Queen released multiple songs based on the Bible. In addition, Leonard Cohen combined two Bible stories in one song.
The Bible | Bromberger Hoover Photography / Contributor 5. The Byrds’ ‘Turn! Turn! Turn!’
Pete Seeger wrote “Turn! Turn! Turn!” based on a passage from the Book of Ecclesiastes. While the book can be nihilistic at points, the song is very pretty and smooth. It became smoother when The Byrds covered it. According to The Billboard Book of Number 1 Hits, “Turn! Turn! Turn!” is the No. 1 single with the oldest lyrics.
Decades later, “Turn! Turn! Turn!” remains one of the most famous classic rock songs based on the Bible. Despite this, Seeger told Beliefnet in 2006 he did not think the Bible was completely true. In addition, he believed everything was God and God was everything.

It used to be that recording artists had to be known for a specific genre to get signed to a label. But in recent years, more and more music artists have been experimenting with different genres - from The Weekend's bachata track with Rosalía to iconic pop singer Thalia's new urbano sounds.
Still, it's rare that you see an artist who isn't known for a specific genre skyrocket to fame. And yet Manuel Turizo has managed to beat those odds by creating music on his own terms. The 22-year-old Colombian singer and songwriter from Montería, Colombia, has released everything from pop music to reggaeton and vallenato. His latest megahit, "La Bachata," his first bachata song, rose to No. 1 in Latin Airplay and Tropical on the Billboard charts for multiple consecutive weeks.

The last time the band performed “The Star-Spangled Banner” for a large audience, it was back in January 2003 for Super Bowl Xxxvii, about a month and a half before the Chicks were blacklisted from country music for their criticism of George Bush at a London concert. The trio singing the National Anthem in 2020 carries a much different resonance than it did over 15 years ago, but their harmonies remain the same: gorgeous,...

This week’s first virtual Democratic National Convention has come and gone, and “Jane the Virgin” star Jaime Camil was ready to recap all of its drama like it was “straight out of a telenovela.”
“The 2020 DNC has been full of twists and turns with an action-packed new installment every day this week. It’s a Joe Biden telenovela. You could call it a ‘tele-Joe-vela,'” Camil said at the DNC’s virtual, star-studded “after party.”
“We started the week with melodrama. Wait — did I say melodrama? No, I meant Michelle Obama. Will her remarks be speech-napped again? Well, only time will tell,” he continued, referencing Melania Trump’s conspicuously familiar speech at the 2016 Republican National Convention.
“Since then, we’ve seen every archetype: The hotshot influencer Jim Clyburn. The romantic Prince Royce, the power couple Steph and Ayesha Curry, the intrepid justice seeker Sally Yates. You’ll also recall...

Jennifer Hudson stole the show at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night, performing Sam Cooke’s “A Change Is Gonna Come” inside the beautiful Chicago Cultural Center.
Unsurprisingly, Hudson killed it, bringing her Broadway-level vocal chops to a timeless anthem for racial justice and hope. But the truly jaw-dropping moment came during the last verse when Hudson decided to play to the acoustics of the building and stepped away from the mic to belt out the last few lines. It was, to say the least, a stunning show of her talent.

Kamala Harris will deliver the most important speech, so far, in her career, at tonight’s Democratic National Convention, as she accepts the nomination for vice president.
Pundits and analysts will pay particular attention to her ability to communicate effectively to a virtual audience, which more likely than not will be the way things will be as political season enters its final stretch in the fall campaign. She will be speaking at the Chase Center in Wilmington, De, restricted to a network pool.
A lot of people in Hollywood are watching: Harris has long cultivated ties to the entertainment business, centered in her home state, and her best friend is Chrisette Hudlin, a PR consultant married to director-writer Reginald Hudlin. It was Chrisette Hudlin who set up Harris on a blind date with entertainment lawyer Doug Emhoff, now her husband.

Even in an election year without a pandemic, combining politics and music is a tricky proposition — but the Democratic National Convention, which begins tonight and runs through Thursday night, has assembled a lineup of (virtual) musical performances that is not only remarkably diverse, it also advances the party’s and presumptive candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ messaging in ways that are both subtle and overt.
More than half of the announced performers are people of color, including Common, Jennifer Hudson and recent Variety cover star John Legend. The music of all three performers is relatively family-friendly, but all have been outspoken in their support of Democratic-leaning causes. Also on board are the Chicks — who recently changed their name from the Dixie Chicks to avoid the Civil War-era connotations of the word “Dixie” — who were one of the top country acts in the world until singer Natalie Maines’ 2003 criticism of then-president George W.

Also in the lineup: Leon Bridges, Jennifer Hudson, Billy Porter, Maggie Rogers, Prince Royce and Stephen Stills.

Convention organizers said that they will perform new songs and American classics. On Monday evening, youth choir members across the country will perform the National Anthem, with Commonwealth Youthchoirs arranging 57 members representing the 50 states and territories.
Because of the coronavirus, almost all of the convention will take virtually, after Democrats scrapped plans for speakers to travel to host city Milwaukee.

“This album gonna make you cry, love, & fuck,” tweeted Geoffrey Royce Rojas, better known as Prince Royce, about his upcoming double album, Alter Ego, out February 7th via Sony Music Latin. “Cita,” the newest song from the Dominican-American pop star, unabashedly steers listeners towards the latter impulse. With the help of a Nineties R&b interpolation, Royce takes a detour from the path he started 10 years ago as bachata’s squeaky clean teen heartthrob — and swerves daringly into uncharted territory.

All eyes were on singer Rosalia at the 20th annual Latin Grammy Awards held at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Thursday night (Nov. 14). The Spanish flamenco singer took home the award for album of the year and best recording package for “El Mal Querer,” as well as Best Urban Song for her collaboration with J Balvin on “Con Altura.”
“Thank you to the Academy for giving me one of the first opportunities a few years ago,” she said from the stage. ” I also want to share this as a musician. There is nothing that makes you prouder than winning a Grammy. It’s the biggest thing that can happen to an artist.”
Alejandro Sanz, who had the most nominations going into the show, also picked up three Latin Grammys: record of the year and best pop song for “Mi Persona Favorita,” as well as long form music video.

“I don’t want people to know me as a reggaeton star,” Maluma told Rolling Stone last year. “I want them to know me as Maluma, the star.”
With the 2018 release of his Latin Grammy-winning album, F.A.M.E. — as well as charting hits with Shakira, and the late, controversy-ridden rapper XXXTentacion — the Colombian singer-songwriter seemed primed for global crossover stardom. But despite the success of lead single “Felices Los 4,” plus radio-ready cameos from Timbaland, Prince Royce and Jason Derulo, F.A.M.E. didn’t quite realize Maluma’s American dream.
