Quotes

“Even if something is very different from what I feel or what I create, if it’s honest I really respect it. But when I’m writing a song, when I’m creating a universe, I just have what I feel and what I want to say to my inspiration, which is my wife. What I’m trying to celebrate in this album with the lyrics is honesty. I’m being true to who I am, and making my wife feel proud.”

“I started writing and producing for other artists, and that made me free from a lot of pressure in my head. You’re writing a song and you’re going into a club, and thousands of people are singing the song that you wrote in the studio, and nobody knows who you are.”

“There was a moment in my life when I was fighting with the way things look, because I thought aesthetics was part of a superficial universe. But I realized that everything is connected and everything that you have, your exterior, is making an impression, is making another person feel something. It’s not only an accessory — it’s giving messages.”

“A lot of people are, like, ‘Take that mustache off!’ And I’m like, Bro, if I take the mustache off, I’m going to be in a costume, a disguise, of someone that I am not. This is part of who I am. And, my wife loves it.”

“I am many me’s, and in my music, every day I visit the place I want from a different me. I am multiple versions of myself.”

“In my approach to music I include all of the Colombian sounds. It’s part of my origin.”

“Meeting Evaluna was for me an encounter with that kind of love for the first time. And seeing love as a mirror… when I started beginning the journey of loving Evaluna and letting her love me.”

“My dad used to tell me ‘Tu vas a estrenar tu corazón cuando seas papá‘ — the moment you become a father is the moment your heart really, truly wakes up. And he was right! You really can’t imagine it until you have kid.”

“The majority of my best ideas, I truly feel as though they’ve come from some sort of outside source. It isn’t even an illusion of any kind, I can genuinely feel them arriving as if they were arriving ‘de afuera‘ [from the outside] and you can call it whatever you’d like — the universe, God, that creative and guiding energy, love.”

“Right now in my life, Evaluna is the center of my emotional attention.”

“TikTok was one of the things I explored the most in quarantine. When we had planned to release the album, we were going to go out and travel to every country for promo, but since we were in the house, we were having fun trying to look into new and happy ways to connect with the people who were also locked-up in their house too.”

“TikTok has this weird and funny way to share your stuff, so this was a huge trampoline for us and this album.”

“I do believe that love is the biggest of all possible revolutions. I do believe that every little song, every smile that one of my songs gives people, every positive message, and every little detail is changing the world.”

“That’s my purpose: to be an instrument of God’s love to impact as many people as I can through my songs and through my music.”
