What was your upbringing like in Spain?
Growing up in Spain was cool, I like the food over there. It’s just a whole different vibe. I like living here more, but I like the food over there.
How did moving to Miami impact your work as a musician?
It allowed me to connect more with my Latin side and my Cuban heritage. It helped me to connect more with who I was.
Did you aspire to become a singer when you were younger?
Since I was 6 or 7, I would stand in front of the mirror with a microphone and start singing. I started writing songs when I was 14 and, at the time, they were pretty sad.
Who were some of your inspirations when you first started making music?
My first inspiration was definitely Rihanna. I also loved J.Lo and Shakira, who I listened to a lot when I lived in Spain.
How do you think your new music shows how you’ve grown artistically?
