Since I was little they asked me, "What are you

going to do?" I always said, "Cant, you

have to write at the end of the

movie. I have to know how I

want to die." Damn, I am an

ambassador of Mexico to the world through

music. I want everyone to

know that in Mexico we are really badass dudes

and that it is the most

badass country in the world, dude. I don't give a damn about the truth

. They get upset, dude. That's the

truth. I'm not telling the truth, dude.

dude.

With your personality, just as you are,

what do you have to offer the world? Look,

everything I do is certified by

God. That's just how I am. And that's why my first one is

Hi how are things? How is everyone?

Today we have an artist who is the

creator of the Mexatón, you

have to explain to me what that is. His

specialty is urban folk. He is IOMX.

IOMX.

First of all, thank you so much for being

here with us. We are very

happy to have you because, well, we already

talked backstage and you have

excellent energy. We really liked you

. There's one thing I want to

ask you that I'm sure everyone

who doesn't know you and is watching this

wants to know: why IO MX.

Well, thank you for the

invitation. Here I am, I feel at

home and I am at home, so hold on tight

because here you're going to have, no, I've been

making music and

dedicating myself to the

entertainment industry for a long time. IOMX has been around since

2020 or so. Well, I've done

a lot of things in music, but really, really well

, like MX since 2020. Why? My

last name is Iorio.

It is a Neapolitan surname

and the Iorio is repeated twice in

the surname io río. And at school

sometimes they didn't treat me well, dude. They

called me George or dude, once someone yelled at me

in the street, Jorge.

And me, you bastard, why are you calling me

Jorge dude? And I told him, "I'm not

Jorge." No, it's because your name is Georgio.

No, no, no, my name isn't Georgio, dude.

I am Yorio. So I said, "Well,

life's going to get complicated if I keep saying I

'm Yorio, so it's better to say MX,

because I am, look, I have Mexico tattooed here

. I'm passionate about my

country, even though I have many cultures, like

I said, Italian and all. I was born

in Mexico, I used to fight with my

Italian family in '94 and in 2002 when

Mexico played against Italy. The

Italians would get together to watch the Mexico-

Italy game and they expected me to show up

with the flag and wearing an

Italian jersey, and they were being really stupid, and I'd show up

with the Mexican flag and wearing a

Mexican jersey, and then I say

a prayer for humanity

at noon, and it's noon . Do

. Do

you want to say it for whom?

No, I just say that I hope everyone does

well. I mean, I

concentrate and say, 'Good for everyone.'" We are...

are...

What are you saying? What are you

asking for? How are you asking for it? It changes

every day. Right now I'm here,

right now I just said, "Thanks,

I'm healthy, I'm having a coffee, I

like coffee, I'm with people I

trust, that's cool, everything's good,

we'll talk later, but the alarm goes off, dude."

dude."

So, ah, so that day I arrived. Uh-huh.

And my uncle Tony, whom I consider

like my grandpa, those people, well, my

uncle Tony wanted

me to arrive wearing the

Italian shirt and with P. No way. I came

to defend Mexico, dude. So,

yeah, MX, that's why I want everyone to

know that in Mexico we're

really awesome dudes and that and that and that

and that it's the most awesome country in the

world, dude. We have to believe the truth .

Hey, what part of Mexico are you from?

From Jalisco.

Are you from Jalisco?

I'm from Guadalajara. I'm from Chapalita,

that's my neighborhood. People get all worked up

when I say that Chapalita is my

neighborhood, because Chapalita in Guadalajara

is like saying this isn't a

middle-class neighborhood. Then people tell me,

"No, no, that's not a neighborhood." Yes, it's a

neighborhood, it's a sector, it's a neighborhood.

Because I sought that connection with the

neighborhood, but my neighborhood is Chapalita and that's where

Maná is,

the most successful band in Mexico's

history. They're heavily

criticized, but they're the only guys

who fill stadiums worldwide, dude.

dude. Mexicans.

Mexicans.

Yes. Hey, what was an IO like when I was a

kid? Were you one of those kids who went to play

in the street? What did you do when you were

little? What was it that entertained you? It

depends on the moment, but for example, I

am an only child. I remember that

I would grab my bike or skates or just

walk and go explore the area. Back then there were

no cell phones,

so I would leave at 9 at night or in

the morning and sometimes I wouldn't come back

until 3 or 4 in the afternoon, dude. And that's how I

learned to detect dangers, that's how

I learned to detect distances, dude.

Sometimes, for example, I lived on

La Purísima street and I would go to the giant

Las Rosas, which was a S. I think there were

giants here too, right?

Yes, Mexico City

no longer exists. The giant Las Rosas was going by and that

was like 800 m, maybe 1

km, but for a 6 year old kid it was

like 20 blocks, dude.

Yes. No, it was going to another state for 2 hours. Clear.

Clear.

Ah. So I was saying, "Damn, if I

cross this street, I

'm not in my neighborhood anymore, dude.

So, I was already feeling scared." Uh-huh .

And if yes and no, I'd better just go back.

So, I'll come there tomorrow. Tomorrow I'm going to

cross over there, tomorrow I'm coming with the

energy and the guts to cross over

there. I've reached my limit for today. And he

did that a lot, dude. Riding a bike,

meeting people, playing soccer, playing Nintendo,

Mario Bros with my mom, lots of Mario

Bros with my mom. My mom always was

because she's still alive, but nowadays

I try to see her as a mom and not as a friend or a

sister because for a long time

in my life I saw her as a friend and as

a sister and that makes me

energetically not respect having your

mom, dude. So sometimes I'd grab

my mom and chat or we'd fight,

I'd fight with her over playing Mario Bros

and I'd say, "Give it back, that's my controller." If you don't

understand, well, sometimes that's

okay, but I understood at a certain point that she's

my boss, dude, and I have to

live with her and respect her and feel her as my

mom. So right now I'm in that

process, like,

but up until now, I mean, before, well, for about

six years it was hard for me

not to see her as a friend

or a sister, dude, but yeah, for many

years it was like that. Hey, and was it on the

street where you found music, or

where did you find it?

Because I think my mom listened to a

lot of music, and yeah, obviously my mom

had vinyl records and she's super passionate about

music. My mom can't live without

music. I feel like that's because my

mom isn't a singer, she wanted to be

famous, but she never could. I didn't know, like a

painter, or an actress, or any kind of artist.

artist.

She wanted to, she She's an artist and she

wanted to be famous, dude. She wanted

the world to know her. Then she said,

"No, what a drag." So, he always

raised me on folklore, dude, like, '

Let's go eat, I don't know,

dude, at the most expensive restaurant, or to

put it like that, dude, no, how do you say it, at the

coolest restaurant in Guadalajara,

but in the afternoon we're going to go to San

Juan de Dios to eat a really cool dessert, because

San Juan de Dios in

Guadalajara is like saying Tepito here.'

We're going to San Juan de Dios to eat

a dessert that they only sell there.

So sometimes I'd say, "No way, I

was four or so years old, and I'd say, 'What's up with

my mom?' I mean, I was hanging out with

these really posh guys at the Country Club for a bit,

and I ended up hanging out

with them, I mean, I love it. Yeah, I

'm not saying it's wrong, but a

kid who's five, six, or seven does

n't always understand. Or, for example, my aunts

and my mom would tell me, 'Listen to this

Nicola Divari or Luis Miguel

or Cristian album back then, I don't know,

something really pop, really cool.'" And then he would

call me at 5 in the afternoon and take me to

a place called Rancho Grande,

which was awesome, dude, the drums would come out, that's why I was

the only kid who could go into

that bar, dude. And come on, my son, let's

go to Rancho Grante. Okay, put on your

boots, put on your hat, we're going to

put a gold chain on you, put on a

plaid shirt and we'll end up with a

bunch of ranchers, dude, cool, dude,

all kinds of dudes there in Rancho

Grande, I was the only kid, man, and

since my mom had connections, she let

me in and I was the

exotic animal of the,

come here, son. But just like that

. My mom would disguise me so I could go in

there. But damn, in the

morning I was having breakfast, having breakfast

with guys who played golf, all of them

posh, dude, as a kid, and in the afternoon I

was talking about El Recodo and about and about

really exotic things from

Mexican popular culture, dude. I

mean, I think, I don't know, now that I'm getting to

know you, this dish, I think it's one

of the reasons why your

personality is like this, because you don't know how to

differentiate between this or

that, it's all the same. And at 2

in the afternoon I was eating pasta with my

uncle Tony, dude, Neapolitan food and

dude, well of course, man, I mean, it's

really difficult, dude. Do you know

where you're located, dude?

There's a lot of world out there, dude, but I like

everything. These days I enjoy everything and that's why

I adapt to everything. And today they

invited me to sing in Tepito, dude. There's a

sound system in Tepito at 6

pm, then and now I'm in

Polanco. My buddy was laughing his head off yesterday

. He tells me, "Dude, I'll whistle for you from Polanco

." That's awesome, dude.

That's just how I am. And that's why my first

album is called This Is Me.

So, when was it that you said,

"Dude? I have this talent, I have this

vision, I don't want to..."

My boss was important, but I also

had a neighbor who was really passionate about

metal, and I was always with my

older brother, and I was an Iron Maiden fan, and I had

Eddie shirts from

Iron Maiden, and the best vocalist I've ever

seen is Bruce Dickinson, and

all that's good, but my Uncle Tony was making pasta

listening to Nicola Divari, so, bam,

and my Uncle Benjamin would take me to

Mazatlán every summer, dude, because

I spent every summer

in Mazatlán, and on the way there we'd listen to

Elena and we'd listen to Los Ángeles Azules and we'd

listen to... I mean, music has been

in my life all the time, dude. The thing is,

since I have a connection

with music, I find music

everywhere, dude. On the road, in

the kitchen, like, my grandma, my grandma,

people say, "Wow, you

're so stuck-up, grandma, dude." It's not like that. Life,

dude. I mean, I have a nanny because my

grandparents died, and my three aunts

and my mom were orphaned when they were

15, dude. And the only one who

could more or less keep the house running was my

nanny, dude. So, my nanny is in the

kitchen all the time, and Jorge Negré from

Tani and Radio Gallito was on from 6 in the morning to 2 at night, and from 5 in the afternoon to 5 at night, you know,

AM radio.

But, at what point did you say, 'I'm going to make it

official? I'm going to start a band,

I want to dedicate myself to this.' What? Always, yes. I mean

yes. I mean

, actually, when I was little and they

asked me what I was going to be, I

always said singer,

and then if I had any doubts, I'd say

soccer player, but I was fat as a kid,

really fat. So, I kind of

tried to be a soccer player, but my weight would

n't let me. No, I'm not a slave, I got

injured and that's why I couldn't, no. My

weight never let me. I stopped being

fat. Six years ago, dude. Uh, I focused

on changing a lot of things to have

better energy, because being fat isn't

cool, dude.

I used to joke about being fat and tell

people, "Did you see how much I weigh?" and no way

, I saw it, I did it as a joke

joke

, but deep down I did

n't like being fat, dude. I didn't

like that I had to buy

adult-sized pants and that my nanny had to

cut them for me so I could go to school,

dude. No, it's cool. And I don't even know why we got

fat, but

no, but it's okay. Look, I don't

imagine you the way you say, I mean, I can't

imagine your career cut short because of my

knee, but I can imagine my weight.

Ah, my weight prevented me from being a soccer player, dude. I

dude. I

wasn't very talented because of my weight, but

I had my Jorge Campos suit. I'm a

fan of Maradona, of Roberto Ballo. I'm

a Chivas fan. I'm a fan of

Hugo Sánchez, and he's my top pick. So yes,

football is part of my life, just like

music. I fall asleep. Ask

everyone. Ask him. I fall asleep

listening to spicy football, dude.

I want you to tell me, you were in a group,

group,

uh, what was the name of this group? Those of you who

were 13 years old when

Nati Congo Crew was a

record label, was a band today

of reggae and Afro and

Caribbean music brought to the Mexican style.

So, I learned a lot from them

because at that time they were the ones who gave me

the tools, and to this day

yesterday I was playing with them

here at Foro 246 in the Roma neighborhood

with Nati Congo, but dude, we've been

together but not mixed up, and when we

have been mixed up we have a really cool time

and we continue doing a lot of things,

dude, really cool things, the truth is.

How long did it take you to become independent? Well, I don't

know if I should say it like that, but when you leave

that group, you start out as a

solo artist. Yes.

And that's when I was born.

Yes. The thing is, I see it as my

elementary, middle, and high school, and university. When I

graduated from Nati

Congo University, I thought, "Now,

what do I want to do?

I want to play Mexican music, I want to

play reggaeton, I want to play cumbia.

I want to because their thing was reggaeton, and they

had a great musical vision, but it

was very segmented at that

time. Not so much now, but back then it was

music with Black roots

combined with Mexican elements. But that

audience at that time wouldn't accept a

Don Omar, man, they would

n't accept it. So I'd show up

with braids and a Don

Omar flow, and I'd say, "Dude, Don Omar was

inspired by Champol, man, why are they

making such a fuss if Shan Paul is Jamaican

and he's from reggaeton?" But at that time,

the reggaeton audience that

followed us wasn't really into the

urban thing, man, even though it was popular in Jamaica at

that time. So, I was

very restless, and even less into Valentina

Elizalde, man, and even less into Selena.

So, when I'd arrive, for

example, and I'm going to say it openly and I don't care

, man, we were on tour

with Gonana, dude, all over Mexico,

man, I'd arrive with my iPod back then

and I'd put it on and

they'd see, man, Valentina Erizalde, dude,

Selena, Sin Bandera, Luis Miguel,

Isla, Anthony B,

Morgan Erith, everything. Hahaha, no way,

dude. How do you listen to that

Selena crap? I was just a kid then,

man. Or for example, once with

Fidel Nadal's band, Fidel is my

buddy, I love him with all my heart, he

never criticized me, on the contrary, he was

crazy like me, but one of his musicians

said, "Oh, that guy, what, dude, why does he

think he's Don Omar, dude?" "That doesn't work here

, dude, this is reg and that's it." And

I stood up, I'm a Latino man, dude.

I stood up and he said, "Well, what's with you,

dude?" "Damn it, dude, what's

up?" And we almost got into a fight

because it was bullying, dude. I was

getting bullied in that scene

for being so musically multicultural,

dude. So I was like, "No

way." No, nothing to do with my

band. My band always understood me,

dude. But the genre, let's say,

the industry at that time, yeah, I did

feel a little bullying, dude. I

was like, "Oh, no, dude, why the hell do I have to put up with

these guys,

man." Yeah, yeah, the truth is, dude, well,

no, I've always wanted to be a

millionaire, man, and I don't see any of

these guys who are millionaires. [ __ ] it, for real

, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I do see Don Omar as well-established,

damn it. And I do see Valentín

Elizalde, that bastard,

making money. And I see these guys in

trucks, dude. I don't give a damn

. They get upset, dude. That's

the truth. I'm not telling the

truth, dude. There will be some who like to

wear dirty sneakers, dude. There will be those of us who

like to wear clean sneakers.

There will be some people who don't like traveling by bus for

27 hours, dude, from Playa del Carmen to

Guadalajara. Some people will prefer to

buy a private plane and travel for 35

minutes or an hour, and that's fine

because everyone respects the rules. But I don't

want to be 40 years old and travel on a bus for

40 hours to get from one city to another.

If I have to do it because God

wants it that way, then I'll accept it with love, dude.

But I'll always look to be

in cool and comfortable places,

man. And then I analyzed that and

said, "Damn, these guys are

criticizing me." Not the public, not the fans,

dude, it was the industry at that time.

No, I'm not talking about the

fans. The fans loved me, dude, and they

welcomed me and understood me superbly. I'm talking about my

colleagues, dude. Those guys don't

understand me, dude. They bully me, they make

fun of me because I'm the smallest,

the kid. No, no, don't understand my

rambling. And on top of that, dude, I don't

see them as successful, really abundant,

because I believe in abundance and I don't

see them as abundant, dude.

Well, dude, what am I doing here, man?

Thank you for the learning experience. I

love his music. I'll add them to my iPod

playlist, but I don't want to

be like you.

Yes of course.

I want to be like Don Omar, like

Valentín. Then I got to the urban side,

dude, and I also came across things,

dude, that made me say, "No, not here either, dude.

Wait a minute, dude. These things are real

." So in the end I opted to take

the best of everything.

You did your thing.

And I did my thing.

And that's it, everything you're telling me

leads to mexaton. It

takes me to the mexathon. Which leads me to

mexate. Today it's

urban folklore, let's say. The folk, yes,

urban folklore, but it's already like the

mexatón thesis is urban folklore. I'll

explain why in a moment. Because

mexatón is specifically about the fusion

of urban sounds with elements of

Mexican music.

Okay. Do you consider yourself the creator of

this mexaton? I know there are

producers in Mexico City.

Well, I'm not talking about producers, it's just

that they're very sensitive here, man. But hey

hey

, people,

wonderful human beings who have done things

similar to what I do, dude. What I do believe

is that we did not create an

industry. I don't know if I was the creator or not,

but what I do know is that I'm the only one

who has kept it going,

okay? And that it's taken him to other places,

and he's taken up the mantle and said,

"I do this, and I'm going to make it, and I don't need to

just make one song, but I'll make

an album or an EP and promote it in

Medellín, and promote it in Italy, and

promote it in Spain, and long live Mexatón,

and I'll definitely make it there. What's more, I think

the first Mexatón song I

heard was Dalmata. The thing is,

he didn't know he

was doing it, dude. Dalmata,

and it

starts with a tuba and some

arrangements, dude, but he made one, and the one who was

perhaps concerned with finding the

roots, dude. I mean, at that time I went

with Abelardo Rivera and talked a

lot with Toy Selecta, with Abelardo

Rivera, who is, let's say, the big name in

regional Mexican music there in

Monterrey, in norteño music. And on

the other hand, I went with DJ Playero, dude, he

's my brother, my legend,

but for me, he's family. So

I said, "Okay, I've got the foundation of

reggaeton, which is DJ Playero." He's the one who

created reggaeton, dude. And I've got

the street sound from Mexico here, he

gives me a lot of advice, and I also

have Belardo, who's

a real pro at engineering. Now

his sons are the ones who made it big with

corridos tumbados, dude. Marcelo and

Ribs, they made it big with corridos tumbados.

So, man, I mixed this with

the king, and like

cooking, I started making my own

stuff, dude. That much I know. I went

looking for the roots, dude, of everything, and

that also led me to urban folklore.

Urban folklore. Why? Because nowadays

IMX makes Latin folk music. Uh-huh .

With an element of Mexican music.

Mexatón was like saying hip Hop,

reggaeton, the most urban stuff, you know? And that's where

Mexaton came in, combining urban and regional elements.

regional elements.

Urban folklore today is any

Latin folklore

that has a Mexican element, or maybe

someday I'll

do a German folklore.

Yeah. But it'll have something Mexican.

So nowadays I said, I'm not going to get into any trouble or

segment myself into one thing because I'm going to get

old, dude, and I don't want people to

say, "No, this guy's a reggaeton artist, he

looks good at 40." I'm sorry,

with all due respect to those

reggaeton artists in their forties,

and I'm a super reggaeton artist, but from a

philosophical perspective, dude. Uh-huh

. Whatever happens, we're going to

pull it off. There's a song of mine

called La nea chida that says, "But

I'm a reggaeton artist with money and without

money." Because the reggaeton artist is like, "I

have nothing, but I'm going to get ahead, dude." Uh-huh

dude." Uh-huh .

Explaining a little bit about the

urban folklore thing.

The street gentleman is the

storytelling of IMX today, which

comes from the child to the cool girl and

today is the street gentleman. I

'm fine-tuning myself.

They're all like these stages you've gone through .

Yes, I think the

gentleman is something that has been slowly lost

in the world, dude, which is very

necessary, because a gentleman

is not only from a man to a woman,

dude. A gentleman is also a

man to a man, a man to a

lady, a man to you, and you yourself

live and think like a gentleman. I'm

a really anxious guy, you've probably

noticed. I mean, I'm a very, very,

very exotic dude, dude. In other words, I have a lot of

energy. So, the gentleman has

helped me to focus that energy

and distribute it with elegance.

You, with your personality, just as you are,

what do you have to offer the world? Look,

Look,

what does it contribute?

Everything I do is certified by God.

God.

all. In other words, if I'm going to come with

you to create content, it's first

because I was at home and asked myself, "Am I

doing the right thing?" Is

what I'm about to do right? That's the way.

And since I have a 7G wifi connection with him 24

hours a day, dude, I mean, I'm at 12G with him,

dude. I mean, he talks to me, man, and he

's here right now, I talk to him and he's

always with me, dude. So everything

I do is because God already

told me, "Simon, go for it, gy."

The key is to realize when

God is speaking to you and when

your ego is speaking to you,

because it can play a trick on you

, dude, because sometimes the ego

disguises itself as God and even speaks to you

slowly like Him, yes sir.

So, that's the key, and over time

time

I've become more attuned to noticing when he's

talking to me and when he's not. If it gives me

peace, if it gives me tranquility, it is God.

If it gives me anxiety, if it takes it away, it

's probably my ego trying to

play me a bigger game, and ego is part of

life and necessary for this

career, but you have to use it, it shouldn't

use you.

So yes, everything UMX presents

is made with heart, is

endorsed by God, and is made

seeking to be excellent work. I strive for

excellence. I'm not perfect, but I strive for

excellence. I strive to improve myself. I strive to

express myself and speak better each day

than I did in

yesterday's interview. I'm always looking for an upgrade,

dude, because that's what I look for in

music, in interviews, that there's always

progress, dude, and

that when there are setbacks they're like

stepping stones to do

better tomorrow, because we can all fall,

dude. I've fallen many times and I

can slip all the time, but I don't

see it as something like a mistake, dude.

I see it as a gift from God

to tell me, "Look, you were given

this here, let it serve as

power to take the next step and jump over

that hurdle you couldn't quite reach

. I had to help you

slip so you could learn to take the

leap. That's what

IMX represents in everything he does,

because I don't just make music, man. I

'm destined, I'm forging myself

to become a legend. So, I

'm educating myself to become a legend, man.

Everything I do

is because I know MX is

a legend, that the day I'm gone, I

have to take every step thinking that way.

So, it's not just music, man. It's a

legacy, in my style, in my

speech, in my being, in my music.

Tomorrow I'm going to make movies, I'm going to

make series, in podcasts, if

10 million people watch us today

, man, and Out of those 10 million people,

people,

something sticks with someone, someone

who has nothing to do with music. Well,

I've already left a legacy through a

story for that person, and that

makes you part of what legends do, man.

man.

I want to be a legend. I am a

legend. So, I have to live like one .

Not out of ego, but because that's the mission

God gave me, man. It was really hard for me to

get to this earth,

man. A ton. That's another podcast,

like, three hours long, but I've

found things in my home where I was

almost destined not to be born,

man, and I'm here, and a

ton of things have happened to me where I was destined to

die, man. Not destined, no. I

was exposed, exposed,

exposed,

to dying and going through some really

messed up stuff, man, and I didn't make it out of

it, man. So it's like

God is always telling me, "Man, you're made

to do great things, man." Don't screw it up again

. "Go this way, go that way." And

if you screw up, you'll still gain experience, and

I'll give you plenty to work with. The only thing I

ask of God is health and life,

man, because I hope I have enough time

to do everything I want to do,

but if I don't, I want it to be as

effective as possible. That's why today, in my

team, we have the 3 Es with

Lucas and Niclas, man.

Effectiveness, efficiency, and excellence.

So, those three are

about making the most of your time,

man, because you never know if you'll be here

tomorrow, man. Leaving

here, I could be screwed. I hope

not. And I'm knocking on wood and iron and everything,

but it can happen, man.

And speaking of that, it's good

that you mentioned it. Let's see if you remember.

One of the hardest stumbles you've had that

taught you the most. Do you

remember any?

Yeah, tons, man. And there's one that makes you

say, "Dude, This was the one that could

be a turning point.

A lot, dude. Look, I love this

podcast because we're going to put out a ton

of content and because my press manager

always tells me, "Dude, don't talk so much."

so much."

But man, the power of

words is healing.

What goes in and out of your mouth, that's it

. You either rot or you heal, dude. And

this is cathartic, man. And right now,

this question, and that's why I'm doing the preamble

with this question. Yeah, I've made

nine mistakes, but slips, dude.

Thanks to being a dude who, uh,

consumed marijuana excessively, dude. I mean,

mean,

I smoked, dude. I mean, I mean, and

look at how my face looks, dude, because

I love it, man.

But it wasn't good for me. And because of smoking

marijuana, I ended up on the street, dude.

Sleeping on the street, dude. That's why the

street kid. There will be

people who can Smoking at home and it does

n't hurt you, and I have nothing

against people who use it, nothing,

dude. On the contrary, if you can do it

and it doesn't cause you any problems, I envy you.

I love you, dude. Maybe in another

life I could. I don't want it to be in the

next one because I already want to get out of

this sphere, dude. This

Dragon Ball. I don't want to be

reincarnated in anyone anymore, dude. I want to

finish this

video game quickly, but if you smoke and it doesn't

cause you problems,

marijuana left me on the street, dude, huh? No, people were saying, "Oh,

this guy is smoking, doing drugs."

No, dude. A really tasty [ __ ] from

Cush sent me to hell, dude.

How did you realize? Because

normally when you're in that moment

you're like, "Oh, and the next one, and the

next one." You said, dude, no more. I

mean, I didn't even have the capacity to

say, "No more, dude." The people who

loved me told me, "Gay, you're going to

die, you bastard." And they forced me into

a rehab center to stop

using marijuana, dude.

I had problems with alcohol and I've never

said this, dude. I don't

like promoting it either, because tomorrow I

might go back to smoking marijuana and I'll be like

an idiot here, dude. I know some

very famous people who use this to

sell things or because it vibrates at that moment,

and the next day you see them smoking,

dude. He says, "Holy [ __ ], dude, what's up

? What happened? That's just how we are." So I'm just

looking out for today. I'm not doing it today, I do

n't know about tomorrow, but I do know that if I

do it tomorrow, I know it will

hurt me, dude. And I know I don't want it,

Juan Álvaro Yorio, dude, it hurts him

. And I don't use this as a

marketing strategy, dude, or anything like that

, dude. I use this

because it saves my life,

dude. And if I want to continue being

a legend and I want to vibrate like a

legend, dude, I have to take care

of a lot of things, dude, of

toxic people, of substances that harm me.

Um, like I was just telling you,

I haven't smoked for a few weeks now

either, dude, because it's not

presentable to arrive at an office where they

want to see you as a star and

you arrive smelling like tobacco, dude. Just now I was remembering

the conversation you were telling me about how you

were in Cologne and how you kept going a

little more and a little more to

explore and a little more and suddenly

you arrived in Spain, Germany, Belgium,

Italy, France.

What is that to you? How does it

feel to have gone from a neighborhood in

Guadalajara to being

in those places, doing what you

love? What is it? Well, that

Well, that

's a sign

that the bet I made actually paid off, dude. In other words

dude. In other words

, we haven't collected everything I

want yet. We're missing a ton, a whole lot.

whole lot.

But the fact that

we've accomplished so much right now

means that the day I got

home and told them, "I don't want to go to

school, man. I don't want to work

in a shop, dude. I don't want to be a

lawyer, dude. I don't want to be a

doctor, dude. I don't want to be in a

hospital. I don't want to be at

McDonald's, dude. I don't want to be at

a movie theater. I want to sing." And

all those people told me, "No way, dude,

you're going to starve to death, dude." You're not going to

do anything, dude. "No way, look, nobody's gonna

listen to your crap." Because a lot of people

told me that, dude. Or just this

example I gave you about the Rastafarians—no, not

Rastafarians, sorry, about the

reggaeton crowd, dude—who were telling me, "No, we do

n't want this here, and not here."

That means all my bets

paid off, or have paid

off. So

we're already winning, dude. I mean, from that

perspective, right? Obviously, I

feel really happy, really excited, dude, and sometimes I ca

n't believe it, dude, and sometimes I

cry a lot, but not from

sadness, more like, damn, look, I

mean, I love to walk. I

got to know Spain now that one of

our friends here lives in Spain, I

got to know Spain, I got to know Europe

by walking, dude, just like when I left

Chapalita, I got to Spain, dude, I

got to Germany, and now I'm back.

Dude, what's up with this? What time is he coming back,

dude? They say he's coming back, and I turn off my

damn phone and go for a walk

and start watching things, understanding,

arguing with guys in the street, but

in a good way, you

know? Just experiencing the folklore.

So yeah, it makes me feel really

happy, really proud not only of

all these countries, dude, but that

within my country there are people like

you, who are successful and

abundant, who say, "Yeah, let him come,

let's make content with him."

No, that's not easy, dude,

because the first thing they look for is whether you

have 3 million followers or 5

million listeners or whether you have a

future with someone so you can

sit down and talk to them, dude. That

's the first thing they see. So, there's something about this

IMX thing, this

IMX energy that has arrived, that has

unlocked Germany, France, Spain,

Italy, Colombia, man, to get to

Medellín, man, and those guys aren't

easy, dude. I love them, but they don't

invite you to eat out of shame. They invite you

to eat all the time, but they don't

invite you to their game table

all the time, dude. It's their thing, it's their thing

, dude. And today I am

their adopted son, dude.

dude.

Now that you mention

Medellín, I know you're around there, you're

living there. How did you

suddenly decide? Well, Medellín.

I'm living in the

IOMX colony, dude. This year, dude, I've been

everywhere, dude. And right now this

week, in a few days I'm going to Las Vegas for

a musicians' conference, then I'm going

to Medellín for 10 days, and then I'm going

to Paris. So yeah, I spend a

lot of time in Medellín, but right now I've had to

be in several places,

dude. You're a resident of the country,

but I have lived and sweated there and there is

a divine connection with Colombia that was

summed up in Medellín. Why do I mention

Colombia? Because I know Colombia inside and out

, dude. From San Andrés,

Providencia, Santa Catalina, El Chocó,

Cartago, I know it all perfectly, dude.

But I felt comfortable in Medellín and I

feel that the energy of Medellín is

really lovely, dude. Not for nothing,

nothing,

most of my things are successful and Colombians are going to

kill me for this, but the truth is

the truth. Successful women from Colombia.

If they don't leave Medellín, they've had to

go live in Medellín.

And for better or for worse, the most

significant things come from Medellín. From the

most successful reggaeton artists to the

most exotic personalities for evil, they have all

come from there.

So yes, Medellín has a magic,

dude, and it's a magic that I

love, I love being in Medellín, dude.

My family is from Medellín, so my

work team is in Medellín,

dude. Obviously, people are already arriving from

Germany, people are already arriving from Mexico, and

this energy, this energy is from the

coolest place, we haven't talked about the

coolest place, but it's this energy from

Medellín that makes me be

here today in Mexico City, the capital of

my beautiful country, dude, of my exotic and

wonderful country. But I can tell you

with certainty and with a really

badass harmony, I IMX am and will be a

legend. Medellín gave me that security .

That certainty that all

these clowns would come and tell me, "Dude, you

can be this, man. You can be that

, dude. In Guadalajara, I love my

city, but everyone told me, "No,

dude, no, man, you, man, no, man,

better become, better be a doctor, man." No,

better than 10, dude, one gave it to me from over there

, 10, they give it to me at 11, dude.

You found support there.

Yes, I found the dick. Yeah,

everything I thought was true, dude. These guys, I

mean, they validated everything I thought and everything

I felt.

Yes, that's right, dude. No, no, don't

doubt that, because what you

think is true. What you're saying is true

, dude. Ah, bastard. 1 2 3 4 5 6 eight

oxen saying my thing. Alright, dude. No,

well I think my world is here. I mean,

I think my energy is here and

maybe tomorrow I'll be in Paris and I'll get tired

of being in one city

because I'm also very much a hummingbird, but I'll

always feel that Medellín is

part of my life. Look, my

voice is breaking, man,

because they did hit me, they've hit me, dude,

and they keep hitting me, eh, they've saved my

life, dude. I got a disease

called Gulillian Barré and

Jay Balvin's dad took me by the hand to a

doctor, dude, to get me cured, man.

So, Don Álvaro, J Balin's dad,

said, "Dude, what's up? What's that

you have, dude? Let me wait. I

know a really cool doctor,

dude. If they don't know what you have yet, I'll

take you to the family doctor. And we'll

see what's wrong with you, man." And that

guy was the one who said, "You have Guillain-

Barré syndrome." And I got cured thanks to the fact that in

Medellín they told me,

"Dude, this is just temporary." "You're

going to get through this." I was coming down

the stairs from my apartment,

dude, and people were saying to me, "Hey,

Mexican, good luck, God bless you." He's

already walking better today than yesterday.

Break it. Hey, hey, it's, it's really hard. Hey

, come on, have a little run, son.

And me, all twisted and confused, like a bastard, with the

giilio. These guys, why are they telling me to

run, dude? I can't even walk,

dude. But if they tell me to run, then I'll

run. And he was running, you bastard.

Suddenly, after 3 months, something that was supposed to

last 15 or 16 months, was removed.

Thanks to the energy of those

paisas, dude. I mean, they have magic, dude.

And it's not at all out of the ordinary

because they come from so much

suffering, from such a fierce war that

today, well, afterwards there is a rebirth

from love and from art, after

all the shitty war they

had, dude. I mean, I think that in the

history of humanity, after

wars comes the toughest thing for each country:

country: rebuilding.

rebuilding.

Yes. So these guys

rebuilt themselves and they're killing it, and I

want to be where, like I told you, I do

n't want to be with these guys who don't even care about me, even the ones who do

n't seem to have it, man,

man,

and it's very similar to Mazatlán. In fact, the

corrido "Ahorita hay hay un al corrido

Mazatlán" says that, right? It says here even

the poor man feels like a millionaire.

Medellin, where even the artist

who is not famous goes out onto the street. It's me, it's me,

and I'm stuck, and I'm going to stick. I

mean, it's beautiful. Even the

ugliest woman looks beautiful, you bastard. You get on

the subway in Medellín.

No way, it smells like Victoria's Secret. And

look, no, I'm not elitist, but the

lady who cleans houses,

who are generally in the

lowest or

first three social strata, the people who, damn, I was

raised by a maid,

my nanny, I have nothing

against that, but the

maid, you see her with her French

manicure, with her nails done, with her

awesome haircut, with her little chain. She looks

chain. She looks

lovely in her shirt. Well, maybe it's

not the finest brand, but it

's clean, it smells like fabric softener and it has

its own perfume that smells amazing,

the lady who cleans for you is impeccable,

dude. It's one thing, a beauty. You

get on the subway, good afternoon, good

afternoon, excuse me, commitment. And then you

get on the subway and it smells really good, you

bastard. And then one comes out prettier than the

other, and then a really exotic guy comes out, all

dressed up with his tie, with his... I

sometimes say, sometimes I walk through

Medellín and I say, "My God, I must be in

the Garden of Eden."

And they take care of themselves. I had an experience that I never had again

. I was smoking tobacco,

walking around Medellín. Normal,

for me it's tacky, right? Super Naco. My part,

dude. I finish the cigarette and throw it in the street. He backed up

a car and said to me,

"Hey, dude, I don't think you're from

here, but if you are, please

take care of my city, dude. Pick up your

cigarette butts, for crying out loud

." I mean, it's obvious you're not from

here because we countries take

good care of our cities, you bastard, you [ __ ]. I mean,

don't throw a cigarette here, dude.

A really random guy, dude. I felt so

bad, I mean, I felt so awful.

Normally in Mexico,

the guy on the street will give it to you. And what's it

to you, you bastard, if it's my [ __ ]

mother, dude, or what. And all hell breaks loose.

There, dude. I felt, I said, "No way,

excuse me, dude, I forgive you, it won't happen again

, dude." No, and I'm not

saying this in a bad way, buddy, but in a

good way, I mean, he says to me,

"Don't you know?"

No, my dad doesn't tell me, if you're going to be around

here, welcome. Everything's fine, whatever

you need from us, but hey,

don't have the cigarette on the plant, son.

son.

I felt really bad, man. So,

obviously I have a photo. Thanks,

bro. I have a picture of me in

Mexico and a year later in Medellín,

damn, it's me, I look really good

changed everything for me, dude. I mean, I know the truth, I

got really handsome in

Medellín, really gorgeous, dude.

When you write that inspiration,

where do you find it? Look, I'm a

composer, I'm the author of many of

my songs, but I'm also a

co-author of many of my songs, that is,

I share with other people who compose

with me. Of course,

and sometimes it's not necessarily because it's not

necessary, sometimes it's not necessarily because he's

not the one who composes the most or the one who

composes the least, but many

times the best composer or the best

producer for me is the one who manages to create

a synergy and a really badass energy

inside the studio to bring out the best

in everyone.

No, there are a lot of people who won't

agree with me, dude, because they study a

lot to be producers and they study a

lot to be composers and all that.

He says, "No, I am, I am, I am, I

am, I studied." Yeah, dude, but if your

energy isn't geared

towards creating, towards bringing out the

best in the person in front of you,

then you're just a gamer

who knows how to use

production programs, but like, I do them

like I'm standing still.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. But no, I respect

everyone. Producers are the ones who study

and all, but dude, sometimes it's not about

who composes the most, who

produces the most. Dude, there are people who don't

know much about production or

composition or instruments, but the

fact that they're in the studio,

vibrating at a high frequency, dude, that they bring a coffee, dude,

that they say, "No, dude, it's not Pancho,

it's Pancha.

Ah, it's not 'I went to the train,' it's 'I'm coming from the

train.'" One word, dude, can

change the whole song, the essence of

the song, can make the

song work or not. Yeah, I mean,

sometimes it's just like adding

pepper to the pasta so it tastes like

tomato, man. If you didn't add the

pepper, it doesn't taste the same. So,

many of my songs are

co-written with many of these people,

very great, very good composers,

very good producers, but above all

with people who have a great vibe, and there are many of them, and

yeah, I'm a good one. I'm a composer and

a good producer, but I always look to

Medellín for inspiration. I learned to work as part of a team there

because it was hard for me to mesh

with teams here. So, like Hugo

the best team in the world at Real Madrid.

I found inspiration in Medellín, and there are

great composers here,

man. The best one here, dude, is Edgar

Barrera. Well, one of the best today,

Edgar Barrera, is from Mexico and he's

a machine, man. But in my

case, in my career, I never had the chance to

work with a lot of Colombian people

from different parts of Colombia to

create what exists to this day. What?

What?

And where do I find it? On every corner,

man. Inspiration everywhere, man.

If we focus on this, let's go. There's a

new book I'm reading, I

'm not sure if it's called The Art of Creating, I

'm reading it, it's by Rickin. I

'm not sure if that's the title, I have

n't finished it yet, but the guy

explains it all, man. If You're blocked? Go

outside, shut your mouth, and

look at a tree, dude. If you're a painter, maybe that's

the green you need

to finish your painting. Or if you're a

singer, dude, listen to a bird.

Maybe the bird's melody is the

chorus of your next song. And that

guy doesn't know how to compose, doesn't know how to produce, does

n't know how to play, but that guy has

won Oscars and Grammys, and I don't know if

Oscars, but everything, dude. Ale is a legend.

legend.

So, inspiration is everywhere.

everywhere.

Inspiration is for those who are

willing to listen, to see, to be

inspired. Those who have a connection with

God are the ones who find inspiration.

That's the truth. I was in Medellín,

and I said,

I have like 7,000 listeners on Spotify right now,

but I want to do a

tour in Europe, and I'm going to do a tour in Europe,

Europe,

and I don't know how, man, but I'm going to do it, and I'm so determined

to do it that today I'm going to upload

a video to my Instagram saying This.

I turned it on, put the phone there,

started recording, and I said,

"Hey, say they're calling me from

Germany about a concert." "Hey,

Io, they're calling you from Germany about

a concert, asking if you want to go, and I'm looking into it

." "Oh, yeah." "Oh,

that's cool." "Tell them yes, that we're going

there, that we're going in the summer and that we

also want to do Spain, Italy, and I don't know what

else." "Oh, cool, okay,

boom." I'll upload that around February, dude.

I said, "I've opened my mouth, dude." I don't

know how I'm going to

fulfill my promise now."

And all the comments were, "Oh, cool, oh,

that's cool." And then I teamed up

with Niklas, who is now my

manager, and I partnered with him, and, like, he's

part of the team because there's also

Lucas who helps us a lot, and

so I tell Niklas, who is the

only German who speaks Spanish, and I

say, "Dude, he had taken me to

Germany before with Playero, because I

had a tour in Europe, but as a

backup DJ Playero, like NC, and I did

have some of my own stuff, but very, very just a taste

, dude, you know?" nothing really

branded and then I tell Niklas,

he took us to Germany wearing a beachy shirt. And I

said to him, "Dude, you're not

working on these

concerts in Germany anymore, are you?" "[ __ ]

your mother," I said. I already thought he was

the good guy who was going to take me, who was going to

invite me to Germany, dude. I told him,

"Bro, I'm going to be straight with you. I have to

do a European tour. I have six months

to do it, and you have to help me,

dude. You have no choice. I

mean, you're going to help me. How? I don't know.

know.

No, well, you tell me how, and I'll help you. And that's how

we started, dude. And to make

a long story short, Chami showed up,

Caro, a Peruvian girl who

lives here in Mexico, Caro Corso,

recommended me to Chami, and today

I'm here thanks to Chami, because of you guys,

with you guys, everything just came together. And there

came a point where I wrote in a little

notebook I have somewhere,

uh, June 7th, and so on, I did my tour,

dude, without having anything. You showed.

Okay. I told him, "Guys, this is what we have to

do, dude." No way, dude. "

So, he's German, but he speaks Spanish."

He says, "No, how can that be?" I mean, you bastard, you gay guy,

you have 7000 listeners. Where are we going to

get a date in Barcelona, a date

in Madrid, dude? A date in Cologne,

Germany? Where are we going to find a date

in Belgium, dude? Where from, dude? So ,

if you can, tell me. And if not, I'll do it.

No, I can. Okay, fine, let's go. And I would

spend sleepless nights, dude, looking for

contacts and sending them to Niclas. And well

, I could

spend an hour telling you how, but the point

is that we managed to do the Niño Europa

tour and once we did it,

we did a lot of dates, we recorded a

new video, we made music with people, it was

wonderful. That just happened

here, we are on October 12th in uh August,

I arrived on August 1st, I think. Did

you arrive from there?

From there. I spent two months in Europe.

Well, and today we were hired for Paris on

the Day of the Dead,

already. I mean, they already

told us, uh, I want to go to Paris for

the Day of the Dead at such and such a place. Okay, they

told us about Madrid, the people from TR, I

want to do an O show to warm up

next summer.

Ah, damn, we're going there, I haven't even been back for two months

and we're already going back there

. I said, what do I do?

How do I make it not feel like a tour and

avoid putting pressure on ourselves to book 15 dates

and things like that? I need to find a

concept. Then I put, I'm going to

put, a concept

called I forgot my hat. There's not

much of it. I mean, that's how I was, gay. Let me

go get him,

and I'm going to look for a fel tower and the

hat over there, okay? The

Alcalay gate and the hat blown out

. Damn it, what do I do? I

forgot my hat. Tell me, what I work for, you

bastard. I have to go back to these two

concerts because,

well, I firmly believe that you are one of those

people who exemplify that, that

when you decree it

and really believe it and vibrate it, it comes,

and with this example, I think it became

quite clear to us how your

modus operandi is.

Yes. Uh-huh. The question is, what is it? The

question is as follows. The question

is, I don't have a question, I just wanted to

tell you and I think I'm going to postpone it

for the whole time and yes, I mean, I

want to talk about it,

it,

okay? No, I mean, if you have something to

talk about it, I'd love to

because I'm fascinated by

that whole topic and I think I

want to live it every day, I always want to declare,

today I'm going to do this, my day is going to be like this

, I don't know what. And year after year we have

experienced it and it has worked out for us, and I have never known

how to say it. And I think the

words you used a little while ago

were a clear example.

I make decrees every day. I haven't done it this

week because I've been really

sleepy, dude. I'm not going to explain

my formula to you because it was still perfected.

perfected.

Hey, but it's a big help. Maybe

everyone will take what you have. It

's no magic, dude. Simply put, we have to... And

I'm... I

mean, no, I don't want to... look, it's not that I don't

want to share my formula with you, it's that I do

n't have it yet, dude. I'm

creating it. So, since it doesn't work,

but I'm still kind of adding things

to the recipe, I can't just say, "Ah, do it like

this, add lemon sauce" and it turns out to be a

michelada. No, what I do is at

night I make a list of thanks, I

make a list of wishes, I

meditate in the morning, I meditate at

night. I imagine, for example, the

other day I was, look, I was going to meet

my buddy here in

Mexico City, in the south, because what were we going to do

? I was doing an interview with Luis Pérez, a

podcast he does here, Luis Pérez, who's

a total dude, and we met up in the south. I was

coming, and I said, "Damn, I'm super

practical, dude. I was like, "Damn, man,

how am I going to get from here to the

south, dude?" And a taxi is like 500 pesos,

dude. I don't feel like spending 500 pesos or

300. I don't feel like it. No, no, no, no, I'm not in the mood to

give it to Uber. He

says, he says, "Dude, Metrobús,

even with my hat and everything." I said,

"Damn, I don't have a Metrobús card,

I'm going to have to ask someone to help me out

with their card." I give him the

7 pesos and that's it, ta ta ta." And then he

saw Google Maps. If I do this, I'll

be there in 15 minutes. And we're talking about

secrets, right? Bam, I get on the Metrobús

and then I feel like

a rockstar, dude, walking like the

gentleman of the street. Bam,

bam. I feel so obviously like all eyes are on me, like Cantinflas, dude. So, so ...

I know, dude, I don't know why I'm bringing

Cristian here so late, dude. Maybe he

was, I don't know, dude, who's there? Tito

WP there, Forosol, Natanael Cano, I don't know

what, but I wasn't looking at

Natanael or Tito, I was looking at

Io, dude,

and I was like, "No, but no,

dude, he doesn't look good in white." "We have to

put the black hat on this flyer, and we have to

put 'Me' in that photo,

no, dude, what will my 'No' be? Let them take

another photo, I don't like that one, let them take

this photo." So I started designing

that whole route, dude.

That's what I think is

also called metaphysics, and I do that very, very

routinely. I haven't been doing it my

whole life. I knew I had done it for a

long time. I had

done it for a long time, but I didn't know there's

a theory and that there's an

education to do this. Now I

'm educating myself and

perfecting this, dude. And that's why

things have always come easily to me

, but now it's not so easy, dude. It

seems more organic,

more organic, dude.

And for example, I was saying, damn, no,

no, it must be somewhere else, I'm going to

show. Sunday, October 12,

content Mexico City, podcast, and

you guys didn't exist in my life at that

moment, dude. I made that agenda a while ago

Like a month and a half ago. How long ago did I

talk to you, Maria? No,

No, no,

no,

one or two weeks. Uh-huh

. Like two weeks. I

did that podcast content from October 12th in Mexico City

about a month ago, no more, dude, like a month and a

half. I have a little notebook there, and it

said, sometimes I'm off by a day or

two days, or a range, like when you're

looking for flights on Kayak. Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Exact date, one day less, one day more,

two days less. In fact, they gave me,

sometimes I'm off, up to two days off ,

but it happens, dude. I already knew that today was going to

be a podcast, so when the

podcast thing happened, I was sure I

told Maria, let's do this,

because I knew it was going to happen.

Wow. So, the next thing I'm

going to ask you is, if you already have this

ability to generate everything that happens

in your universe, you know that here at

Fenix this is called The Fenix King

House, this FK House. When Is this going to be

your live session? Here.

Wait, let me check.

Exactly. And we have all the time

in the world. So,

between April and May, dude,

April and May. I think around that time it's

like springtime, right? The city

gets chill. Wait, maybe we'll be there,

right? Maybe, soon we'll be huge and

everyone will want to collaborate with

us, and dude. We have the most

pro musicians in the city to do it. It's already

making its history. I love it

love it

and it's not that expensive, dude, because they're going to

be broke, you know? I mean, we're

going to pay them because we have to

pay people for their energy, but maybe it wo

n't be a begging thing like, "

Please, where are we going to get this

budget?" That's wrong, right? It's going to

be all easy.

Mm. Okay, let's put it here. Let's

work on that. There

are several things I want to learn,

you know. The first Yeah, you've got

two singles out right now.

I'm just telling you that we need to

get three or four

clips from here that get over 5 million

views on TikTok. So you'll

see, man. Okay, if they're 15

seconds, a minute, 30, or the

whole episode, all chopped up, I don't

know, but you've got your work cut out for you. I've already

decreed it. We've set

the bar high, dude. The

Hey, look, there are a few things.

One, I want you to sing something for me because that's how it is .

You come, you can't just do it and I decree it,

no. Now we have to bring out the talent.

Yeah, it has to be pure, pure, pure decreed.

decreed.

I have two singles. Ah, of the two singles.

singles.

Yeah, tell me about them. I'm, I have it

written down here that one is Tequila.

The last one that came out on Tier Tequila.

Tequila. And the other one,

we have a really serious problem there that No,

YouTube isn't letting me advertise because it's

called Tequila and it's a mess, dude.

But anyway,

something with a K. Tequila with a K.

And another one is Solicitud. Solicitud.

Solicitud.

What's up? What's up? Okay, that makes three.

They're three

from the new album, which is going to be cumbias,

which we started working on with Lucas

Vázquez in Medellín, and we started

creating this world, and along the way he

gave me the name of the album, which is going to be

called Gracias a la Vida (Thanks to Life) because I made a

song that hasn't been released yet, but it's

really awesome, and yeah, it's an exploration

of Latin cumbias, I mean, from

Selena, Tex-Mex, Tecnocumbia, Selena.

I say Selena because sometimes I feel like Selena.

Selena.

From Selena to the pibes

chorros in Argentina, to pagode in

Brazil, to sertanejo from Brazil,

which is like a Brazilian cumbia, I mean,

searching for all these cumbias and being able to make

a folklore of IO, and that's it. The album. Okay. I

Okay. I

mean, if it's going to be a northern cumbia, a

cumbia from Seu, a Peruvian cumbia, an

Ecuadorian cumbia, a coastal cumbia ,

something really exotic. And these three

singles are already part of that album.

Okay. Hey, and which one would you feel most

comfortable improvising or singing?

singing?

Well, all of them, which one do you want?

Yes. Let's see, I

mean, I'll even sing "

Gracias a la Vida" that hasn't been released yet.

Uh, that's it, that's what I'd like. That's what I'd

like. We have

those three, which one do you want?

We have "Con Queso."

But let's try it with a guitar.

That's one of my tasks that I have to

do soon. One of my new

team members

told me, "Dude, we're going to do this

interview with who, bring your guitar,

me, damn, I don't know how to play guitar, dude." He

told me, "Dude, you're messing this up, dude." "

dude." "

So I really have to

finish the year." Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

At least knowing how to play three notes, dude. Uh-huh.

dude. Uh-huh.

Minimum quality. Accompanying you.

Accompanying you.

Yeah, dude. No way, how embarrassing.

What? We'll go for it while they're

sharpening the guitar, huh? Well

, with all the story you've told me

, you sound like a super-artist,

huh, and the truth is I would like to

know what things

move you. For example, ah,

favorite books, a book you've said, "I

loved this one, it marked me, I remember it with

special affection."

Well, I don't say much, it's not like I've been

the greatest actor in my

life lately. Yeah,

but for example, the Bible, the Old

Testament, I love it, I'm fascinated by it. Uh-huh.

The New Testament seems like a great movie to me.

great movie to me.

Like you know, those guys are an

incredible movie. Uh-huh. With the protagonist of

Jesus, my friend ,

my buddy.

Yeah, he's my bro. He's my bro. I'm a super fan.

Of Actually, I once asked myself a question

like, "Who's your favorite artist?"

Jesus. That guy was making art all the time. That's what you were telling me

time. That's what you were telling me

, right? He started his businesses.

businesses.

Yeah. No way, dude, that guy

left the guys, the disciples, to

fend for themselves. He said, "Well, I'm going to leave, I'm going to

resurrect, but you guys have to go

to Rome to do this, that, blah blah blah blah

." He left everything organized, dude,

dude,

everything set up for when... well,

the Bible... I really like... the

seven laws of highly

effective people. Seven

laws of...

Luke recommended that to me, you have to look it up, but seven. I

read the whole thing, dude. I studied it, it was part of

my homework. Okay.

an update of Jesus for today, like, dude,

for today, like, dude, Jesus speaks in a way that's

Jesus speaks in a way that's easier to understand, not so much like a novel,

easier to understand, not so much like a novel, but more metaphysical.

but more metaphysical. Okay. And yeah, he tells you, bro,

Okay. And yeah, he tells you, bro, I'm not the only one. I mean, in the

are equal. I mean, you and I, you and I have the same powers, I just

have the same powers, I just discovered them faster.

And then he explains it in that book.

book. Yeah.
