Juanes named the 2019 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year

The Latin Recording Academy has its 2019 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year. This year the honors is for Juanes.

The Colombian renowned singer, composer, musician, and philanthropist is no stranger to the Grammys. He holds 23 Latin Grammy Awards and two Grammys. Juanes will be honored for his creative artistry, unprecedented humanitarian efforts, support for rising artists, and philanthropic contributions to the world. Through his songs, international performances, and work with his organization Fundación Mi Sangre (My Blood Foundation), and as co-founder of Paz Sin Fronteras (Peace Without Borders), Juanes continues to raise awareness for the power and importance of peace building with extraordinary credibility and consistency.

"Juanes is young, but legendary, an artist who has inspired us through his amazing music for many years and—while doing so—he vigorously campaigned for political, social, and positive change around the world, "said Gabriel Abaroa Jr., President/CEO of The Latin Recording Academy. "His leadership and his philanthropic work, in addition to his positive messages that transcend music, speak volumes about his many contributions to the community and we are truly honored to recognize him as this year’s Latin Academy Person of the Year."  

"I remember attending the Latin Grammy nominations announcement after my first solo album was released, and becoming so overcome with emotion from the shock of hearing my name called seven times, that I had to step outside for a moment to process how my life had just changed forever," shares Juanes. "I was blessed to win three awards that year, and The Latin Recording Academy has been a fundamental part of bringing my music to a global audience ever since. Now, I am grateful and deeply honored to learn that I will get to join such illustrious artists as Juan Luis Guerra, Carlos Santana, Caetano Veloso, and more, as the Person of the Year honoree, while also helping The Latin Academy’s efforts to support future generations of new Spanish-speaking artists.

Chayanne pierde su 'virginidad'

El guapísimo, carismático y talentísimo Chayanne extendió su gira Desde El Alma hasta 2019. En esta segunda parte, incluyó nuevos locales para llevar su espectacular concierto.

 

No se permite copiar y o usar fotos y vídeos sin permiso

El puertorriqueño se presentó por primera vez en el renombrado Hertz Arena (Germain Arena) que queda entre Fort Myers y Estero, Florida. "He perdido mi 'virginidad aquí en Fort Myers." Chayanne explicó por ser la primera vez que canta en el local. Y por ser su primera vez fue casi un lleno total. A pesar que el clima cambio de un momento a otro con tormentas de lluvia. Pero esas tormentas no detuvieron a sus fans ni a nosotras que viajábamos desde Tampa.

 

El concierto de casi dos horas incluyó los éxitos de ayer y de hoy, baladas y canciones pop, del boricua codiciado de la isla del encanto. Los presente cantaron junto a Chayanne desde el primer tema hasta el ultimo - "Torero," "Atado a tu Amor," "Dejaría Todo," "Salomé," "Un Siglo Sin Ti," "Fiesta en América," "Tu Pirata Soy Yo," "Tiempo de Vals," "Completamente Enamorados," "Provócame," "Humanos a Marte," "Di Qué Sientes Tú," entre otros.

 

No hay duda, Chayanne todavía se mantiene un galán sexy. Luciendo muy bien en sus camisas y pantalones apretados. Hasta causó una furia cuando se desabotonó su camisa. Desde el comienzo hasta el fin de su concierto para la historia en Fort Myers, no solo Chayanne pero toda su banda, bailarines y coristas transmitieron tanta energía única, tanto positivismo y alegría. ¿Y que me dicen de sus movimientos?

 

"Me tienen nervioso,"  admitió dándole las gracias a todos presente. Hasta nos dijo, "Ustedes pueden hacer con nosotros lo que quieran."

 

Ese viaje largo bajo la tormenta de agua valió la pena para compartir un buen rato con Chayanne y con sus fans de diversas nacionalidades que lo adoran tanto. Y lo más lindo, se despidió diciendo, "Si me necesitan me llaman que yo regreso." ¡Por supuesto Chayanne tienes que regresar!

  

Disfruten de algunas fotos y videos. Además, sigan a Chayanne en su página oficial Chayanne, en Twitter como @ChayanneMusic, en YouTube Chayanne, y en  Instagram and Facebook como @Chayanne.

Juan Luis Guerra and 4.40 to conquer with a tour

“Quisiera ser un Pez”, “Niagra en Bicicleta”, “La Bilirubina,” are just a few classic hits for the pioneer artist of merengue and bachata Juan Luis Guerra. The Dominican artist and his band 4.40 will be on tour that kicks off Thursday, September 26 in Boston and includes a stop at Orlando’s Amway Center on Sunday, October 27.

“It is a great honor for us to collaborate and partner with globally-respected and beloved artist, Juan Luis Guerra,” said Loud and Live CEO Nelson Albareda. “We are also very excited for all of his fans to experience the music legend’s new music as well as his greatest hits,” added Albareda.

Guerra is one of the most internationally recognized Latin artists. He is most widely known for his style of merengue and Afro-Latin fusion, though he does not limit himself to one brand of music - he blends a variety of rhythms including merengue, bachata-fusion, balada, salsa, rock and roll and gospel. The revered artist of such popular classics such as,  “Ojalá que Llueva Café,” “Visa para un Sueño,” and “Las Avispas” to name a few, will perform his greatest hits and new songs, along with recently released, “Kitipun.” The infectious bachata is his first single in four years from his upcoming album due out later this year.

An exclusive pre-sale for Literal Tour will take place Thursday, April 25 from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. on Ticketmaster.com followed by general ticket sales Friday, April 26 at 10 a.m.

Roberto Carlos se ganó los corazones de miles de fans

Aunque nací en los EEUU, mis padres enfocaron en que dominara el español y supiera de mi cultura latina incluyendo la música. Y el pasado domingo, 11 de marzo tuve la dicha de apreciar en vivo un cantante que conocí a través de un programa de televisión muy popular desde su inicio en 1969, "Siempre en Domingo" con el fallecido Don Raul Velasco.

Por primera vez, el artista brasilero Roberto Carlos pisó suelo en la Florida Central para deleitar a sus fans y claro a esta servidora con un concierto inolvidable en el Amway Center en Orlando, Florida. Fue una noche única desde el comienzo hasta el fin. Casi 2.5 horas de canto, rizas, y recuerdos. Hasta algunos sortudos, recibieron una rosa del brasilero.

Roberto Carlos nos cantó en español y en su lengua natal sus éxitos clásicos que han sido grabadas una y otra vez por un sin fin de artistas - "Cóncavo y Convexo", "El Gato Que Está Triste y Azul", "Amada Amante", "Amigo" y la lista sigue. Y entre sus clásicos también hubo algunos éxitos de hoy incluyendo temas de su recién álbum Amor Sin Límite  - "Esa Mujer". Un tema que grabó a dúo con Alejandro Sanz.

No fue hasta el cántico alegre de "Jesús Cristo" que el local entero se puso de pie, canción perfecta para esta época de cuaresma. Y cuando creía que ya había terminado el concierto, tuve que correr a mi asiento para disfrutar de "Un Millón de Amigos" y "Solamente una Vez".

Estoy sumamente agradecida a mis padres por las enseñanzas y a Roberto Carlos y todo se equipo por tan hermosa noche que siempre llevaré conmigo.

No se pierdan a este astro, Roberto Carlos, en su gira por los EEUU. Vayan a Ticketmaster.com o opriman aquí para más información y para comprar boletos. Y claro disfruten de algunas fotos y vídeos.

Marc Anthony vuelve a lo que mejor le queda la salsa estrenando 'Tu Vida en la Mía'

"Tu Vida en la Mía," titulo de la nueva apuesta musical del renombrado artista Marc Anthony, fue compuesta originalmente por la reconocida compositora Erika Ender junto al dúo SanLuis (Luigi y Santiago Castillo). En esta versión salsa contribuye Marc Anthony con su estilo único, en este género vuelve al romanticismo, con una gran letra y melodía que toca el corazón de todos sus seguidores. Una larga espera para sus seguidores de casi cinco años que el salsero no graba nada propio, mejor dicho solo. La misma fue producida por el afamado Sergio George.

   

                      Credito de fotos Erika Ender                    

El tema fue estrenado anoche en la apertura del 31° "Premio Lo Nuestro," contando con aceptación instantánea del público, al igual que su vídeo en YouTube que fue estrenado a las 11 de la noche. Ya ha sido vista por 455,264. Se espera que la canción sea un gran éxito en la carrera del artista. 

La panameña Erika Ender es una de las más exitosas compositoras en la industria musical internacional; además de ser de las profesionales más versátiles en el mundo del entretenimiento; contando con una destacada carrera como cantautora, productora y personalidad de televisión en sus más de 26 años de trayectoria profesional.

Entre las recientes colaboraciones en las que ha trabajado la artista panameña como compositora podemos mencionar a Akon, Ally Brooke, Marc Anthony, Annita, BFF Girls y Luis Fonsi (entre otros); igualmente ha colaborado con compositores y productores como Red One, Justin Tranter, Marty James, The Audibles, cuyos temas han sido grabados por artistas como Lady Gaga, SIA, Rihanna, Maroon 5, Selena Gomez y Bebe Rexa.

Indiscutiblemente, contando con una variedad de talento y profesionalismo "Tu Vida en la Mía," contará con muchísimos éxitos y galardones. Y estamos ansiosos en oír los demás temas del nuevo álbum de Marc Anthony.

Marc Anthony y su banda se encuentran en la etapa final de su gira Legacy con un concierto esta noche en Washington D.C. y el sábado en Uniondale, NY.

Vean la primicia de "Tu Vida en la Mía" en "Premio Lo Nuestro."
