Really, so there's people that you don't like her in
your every now and then.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
But you smell really good. Okay, perfect, Yeah, she sniffs everyone, male, female,
everything sniffing. So first of all, I can't say welcome
to New York because you're basically in New Yorker. Now
you've lived here five months.
Speaker 4 (00:46):
The last five months, I've been based in New York,
like moving around, going back and forth.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
But I was doing some things here for my album.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
So I was here in New York and I get
to know the place from a different perspective, and I'm
loving it.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Could you you see yourself living here forever? Or is
it wearing you down?
Speaker 3 (01:02):
I don't think.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
I don't think forever because as a Columbia we love
like farms and big places like big land, and here
is too rush for me a little bit. But I
was in What's Blush, and I was like, I could
ride back cicles, I could go out and see the lifestyle.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
People was getting like tan in.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
The pearls part the piers and it's crazy to see
when it's a sunny day, people is getting like sun
is in the piers as it was a beach.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
So I love it.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
You actually jumped into the Hudson River.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
Oh yeah, oh my god, Oh yeah, it's okay.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
It's not glowing from doing that.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
It's crazy because I have to say that in my
I don't know if you say it by my benefit.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
I have to say that I didn't know it was
a river, Okay. I was in a.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Place what'd you think it was, I don't.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Know, like the ocean or.
Speaker 5 (01:59):
There.
Speaker 4 (02:00):
There was people doing that ski at that specific moment
and I was like, oh my god, we're here. I
was in a studio like getting ready for the vm
as and I was like, it was like so hot,
and I was like, what about if we jump to
the ogin it's getting to be amazing and they want
to put the documentary out. Everyone likes, oh my god,
survived to the Hutson. Why what is that bad about it?
Speaker 2 (02:24):
It has all sorts of things lurking and their diseases and.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's like body marinate.
Speaker 6 (02:29):
Yeah, that's when they dump the bodies like I arrived you.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah, so if you can survive the Hudson, you can
survive anything. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:40):
I see now I am prepared for like hard and stuff.
Speaker 5 (02:43):
You can do it.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
You can do anything. So I have a party girl
voice today. Can you hear that? I was up all
night dancing to your album. It is so much fun.
It's such a fun album. It makes you want to dance,
it makes you want to party, It makes you want
to wear bright fruity clothes, like I have to say.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
I was to say that when I say hi, but
I was like, no, maybe I need to be like
it's lower with the things.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
But I love your shir because it's really a tropic
mood and vibe.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
I thank you. This shirt used to be curtains in
my house.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Oh but that's all about that. This used to be
like a cartain too.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I wore my couch. I wore my couch yesterday. It
was a great day, great shirt. So let's talk about it.
Let's go back to the documentary. Okay, So what I
feel like exposing you and your vulnerabilities in life, and
like it was real. It wasn't like you on stage
with lights, It was you backstage with no lights. Were
you a little hesitant?
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Its a rtization to say let's do this this way.
I don't know, but I think I was already like
talking about it like earlier. And the thing about that
documentary is it's like the open door to a normal life.
No my life, I think a normal life. And I
think right now in the spot that we are with
(04:01):
social media, like everything is so perfect if we go
to social media, like everyone is so happy, everyone is
so successful, everyone is so perfect, bodies are so amazing,
and everything is so amazing.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
And I was like, what about to show the realness.
Speaker 4 (04:14):
Of a process like being a success person, being a
good having a good body, has a process, has sacrifices,
has like a process at efforts. So let me show
the realness of the thing. And for me it was
hard because I don't know, but I think sometimes people.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
Don't like leaders to be weak, to have weakness, or
to be you know, the vulnerable exactly.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
They just expect us to be really strong for any situation.
But the real thing about all of us is we
have situations and it's hard to go.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
To all of them.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
But when you do it and you have the strength
and you're trusting yourself and everything, you're gonna get the points.
So I think that was the most important thing for
me to show the realness in the documentary.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
And I'm glad you did. And you know, and some
people do say being vulnerable is a weakness. I think
it's a strength. I think it takes guts to expose
your true feelings. So not at all tears. If you
cry sometimes.
Speaker 3 (05:15):
I cry a lot. Good, I cry a lot. I
have to say that. I cry a light. I cried
more done.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
What you cry about last? Last time you cry?
Speaker 4 (05:25):
You know, if I listen to my album, I cried
just because for me is to be able to get
things done. I don't know, like to have the opportunity
to think about something and to get it done. It's
always a blessing. Is a privilege, I don't know, It's
it's hard sometimes to get things done. So for me,
I cry because of that. I cried because I laughed
(05:46):
so much and I cried. I cried because something touched
me in a really hard way and I cried and
I just cried I.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Was born in February fourteen. Please I have love.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Definitely.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
I'm gonna cry. I'm going to cry.
Speaker 6 (06:05):
I read as part of your bio that you once
a year read the four Agreements, which the four?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Is that right? The four?
Speaker 6 (06:14):
Do you have one of them that is your favorite?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Not taking the things personal?
Speaker 4 (06:20):
That? I think I need to read this book every
single year because, uh, that's the most important thing for
me right now, to get it like in myself, because
to have a public life is to be able to
get noise all the time, good uplauses and everything, bad,
bad comments and hate and everything. So for me try
(06:40):
to not get things personal and just think about it
in my intentions.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
That's hard, but I think it's something that I tried
to read. Keep reading, keep reading. Oh that's a really
good book.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Which about all the time, especially specifically the one that
you said, which was don't take anything personally. What others
do or say is a reflection of them, not you.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Exactly exactly do you ever take I got a break
from social media, so you just don't even have to
look at it or deal with any of it.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Oh yeah, I have to, yeah, because that's even worst
than the Hudson River.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Need to think about like I jump in.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Hudson River, where you spend the whole day, like reading
comments in social media.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
That's worse. It's worse to media for sure. I have
to do it. Like when I I love to travel
with my friends.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
That's my thing instead of like going out and everything.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
I like to take like vacations with them.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
And when I do it, I try to have a
different phone just to take fit pictures with them. With
my friends and being out of everything. I think it's
really good to do it.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
It's important.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
So our friend Claudia is joining us from one seven
in Miami. We were talking earlier while I was in
traffic rushing the gate here to see you about what
it's like being a woman in the business. Your point was,
what was it, Claudia.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
Yeah, it's a male dominated the urban reggaeton ito world
and you're a woman that's highlighting and stealing the show
in a lot of cases. How does it feel and
what's the mindset you have to continue to be that
role model in that genre.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
I think I used to think about like that all
the time, but with my last album, with.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
The process was different.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
I was having a moment in my life where I
was just doing music and I just put everything together
and I just put the album out and that was
the thing that made a clique with my fans, and
so that teaches me that people need realness from leaders
and artists and everything. So that gave me the strength
to say, like, oh, so let's just fight for who
(08:44):
I am and let's show let's be a voice for
all of those people. So I think right now I
see it as I feel really happy.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
And blessed that I could get to this point in
my life. There's had been so much years, so many
years for so much.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Things that I lost that I have to get away from,
like me to get to here right now. But I'm
super happy and I feel so responsible and compromise to
be the voice of all of my girls that they
feel the same way that I used to feel in
that I still feel sometimes. So I don't know, I
see it in a with a great attitude. I think
(09:20):
that there's so much work to do for women in
the industry, in different industries, because I'm not gonna say
that it's just music. I think in every single position,
girls have to fight aut lot for the respect for
the position so let's keep doing like not just me,
you right there, You're right here, and you're right there,
and all of us we have so much.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Work to do to keep like evolving our genre. I
think I love it.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
I love that you lift up all the women in
the musical history, like you even have tattoos of people
like Rihanna. So yeah, so much.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Yes, I think I get the input of all of
the girls that the music that I used to listen
to you and everything. I get the energy more from
women than men. Not in a bad way, but I'm sorry.
I just turned to him and I was like, sorry,
not about way, but yeah, I have Rihanna tattoo, I
(10:15):
have Selena. I think for me to see those girls
that even Selena, because she's still a legend even if
she's not here, she's still on people's hands and hearts.
And Rihanna, I don't know, she is there in all
the business.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
The strange she has.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
To be the more powerful girl in the world, not
losing who you are and having the freedy moments and
the really hard moments when she has to say like
I'm the boss.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
So I really get a lot of from that.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Let's talk about you want to talk about an artist.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
She's incredible.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Did you just you just dropped into her d MS
and said, Yo, it's Carol.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I got her personal number. Yeah, I was. I had
a friend.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
We had a friend together, the same friend, and I
was like, can you please tell her that I really
love to get connected with her. I don't want to
just send her the message. Please let her know that
I really would love to save myself to show her something.
And she sent the name and the number, so I
think she was open to do something. And yeah, I
(11:24):
just called her and I was like, hey, I'm in
the studio, I have this song. I don't know if
you would love to jump in, and she did and
dream even when I was in the video, I was
she was doing like dancing and everything.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
I was like, oh my god, I had all all
of her.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Videos and her career they just passing in my mind
and I was like, it's incredible to see her and
to uh grew like to grow up like watching her
videos and watching her was like so inspiring that for me,
like being there was so choking, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I was like, Okay, I don't know if this is.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
A pink yourself, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I SI to myself.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
But it was a great grade, I think even for
my Colombian people, from our Latina culture. But I think
one of the top years in my in my career
for sure.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
She couldn't speak English. When she first came here to
just talk to.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
Us, she couldn't speak English. And then next time she
came to see us, she spoke better English than we.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Oh my god, she speaks and she didn't have accent.
It's crazy.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
She No, I need to like my accent. I have
a really hard accent.
Speaker 3 (12:28):
If you, if I speak you, you have to say that.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
I'm Columbia or whatever, because we where I've come from
in my agen in Colombia, we have a really hard
accent that I think the way we speaking in Spanish.
Speaker 3 (12:40):

the accent of you want to speak Spanish.
Speaker 3 (13:12):
Yeah, it's cool. I don't know, it's yeah, it shows
where you're from, somebody putting in some effort.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
Let's talk about the album Tropy perfect exactly. It's a
tropical and a little flirty exactly. It's just it's a
it's a fun listen. I mean it really, you really
do have fantastic job on this album and you got
to collaborate with some good friends. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
Like I have to say to this album was the
craziest and the more joyful thing in my career because
this album to be able to know, to have the
homework for me to show the world our different Latina
sounds and all the different instruments that we used to
putting the songs was amazing.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
I have I spent so much time in.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
The studio with different musician like creating the arrangements and everything,
and I learned so much.
Speaker 3 (14:03):

Speaker 4 (14:04):
See how people they listen to the music and they
dance to the song and they get connected to the vibration,
to the energy.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
I don't know, it's amazing. Even I have a song.
Speaker 4 (14:14):
With Pharrel and when I was in the studio with
him and I was like, oh, this is my way
to go right now. So if we're gonna do something
together is going to be there. The most Latino version
of Arrel And it's one of the most important songs
for me in the album and one that the people
my fans love the most.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Bonita.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
It's an amazing song, and I think for me to
be able to in this in this part of my
career where I might to show the world our culture and.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
That? I think I need to read this book every
single year because, uh, that's the most important thing for
me right now, to get it like in myself, because
to have a public life is to be able to
get noise all the time, good uplauses and everything, bad,
bad comments and hate and everything. So for me try
(06:40):
to not get things personal and just think about it
in my intentions.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
That's hard, but I think it's something that I tried
to read. Keep reading, keep reading. Oh that's a really
good book.
Speaker 6 (06:49):
Which about all the time, especially specifically the one that
you said, which was don't take anything personally. What others
do or say is a reflection of them, not you.
Speaker 5 (06:57):
Exactly exactly do you ever take I got a break
from social media, so you just don't even have to
look at it or deal with any of it.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Oh yeah, I have to, yeah, because that's even worst
than the Hudson River.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Need to think about like I jump in.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
Hudson River, where you spend the whole day, like reading
comments in social media.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
That's worse. It's worse to media for sure. I have
to do it. Like when I I love to travel
with my friends.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
That's my thing instead of like going out and everything.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
I like to take like vacations with them.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
And when I do it, I try to have a
different phone just to take fit pictures with them. With
my friends and being out of everything. I think it's
really good to do it.
Speaker 3 (07:41):
It's important.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
So our friend Claudia is joining us from one seven
in Miami. We were talking earlier while I was in
traffic rushing the gate here to see you about what
it's like being a woman in the business. Your point was,
what was it, Claudia.
Speaker 7 (07:58):
Yeah, it's a male dominated the urban reggaeton ito world
and you're a woman that's highlighting and stealing the show
in a lot of cases. How does it feel and
what's the mindset you have to continue to be that
role model in that genre.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
I think I used to think about like that all
the time, but with my last album, with.
Speaker 3 (08:19):
The process was different.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
I was having a moment in my life where I
was just doing music and I just put everything together
and I just put the album out and that was
the thing that made a clique with my fans, and
so that teaches me that people need realness from leaders
and artists and everything. So that gave me the strength
to say, like, oh, so let's just fight for who
(08:44):
I am and let's show let's be a voice for
all of those people. So I think right now I
see it as I feel really happy.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
And blessed that I could get to this point in
my life. There's had been so much years, so many
years for so much.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Things that I lost that I have to get away from,
like me to get to here right now. But I'm
super happy and I feel so responsible and compromise to
be the voice of all of my girls that they
feel the same way that I used to feel in
that I still feel sometimes. So I don't know, I
see it in a with a great attitude. I think
(09:20):
that there's so much work to do for women in
the industry, in different industries, because I'm not gonna say
that it's just music. I think in every single position,
girls have to fight aut lot for the respect for
the position so let's keep doing like not just me,
you right there, You're right here, and you're right there,
and all of us we have so much.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Work to do to keep like evolving our genre. I
think I love it.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
I love that you lift up all the women in
the musical history, like you even have tattoos of people
like Rihanna. So yeah, so much.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
Yes, I think I get the input of all of
the girls that the music that I used to listen
to you and everything. I get the energy more from
women than men. Not in a bad way, but I'm sorry.
I just turned to him and I was like, sorry,
not about way, but yeah, I have Rihanna tattoo, I
(10:15):
have Selena. I think for me to see those girls
that even Selena, because she's still a legend even if
she's not here, she's still on people's hands and hearts.
And Rihanna, I don't know, she is there in all
the business.
Speaker 3 (10:31):
The strange she has.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
To be the more powerful girl in the world, not
losing who you are and having the freedy moments and
the really hard moments when she has to say like
I'm the boss.
Speaker 3 (10:44):
So I really get a lot of from that.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
Let's talk about you want to talk about an artist.
Speaker 3 (10:48):
She's incredible.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Did you just you just dropped into her d MS
and said, Yo, it's Carol.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
I got her personal number. Yeah, I was. I had
a friend.
Speaker 4 (11:00):
We had a friend together, the same friend, and I
was like, can you please tell her that I really
love to get connected with her. I don't want to
just send her the message. Please let her know that
I really would love to save myself to show her something.
And she sent the name and the number, so I
think she was open to do something. And yeah, I
(11:24):
just called her and I was like, hey, I'm in
the studio, I have this song. I don't know if
you would love to jump in, and she did and
dream even when I was in the video, I was
she was doing like dancing and everything.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
I was like, oh my god, I had all all
of her.
Speaker 4 (11:40):
Videos and her career they just passing in my mind
and I was like, it's incredible to see her and
to uh grew like to grow up like watching her
videos and watching her was like so inspiring that for me,
like being there was so choking, you know.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I was like, Okay, I don't know if this is.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
A pink yourself, yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
I SI to myself.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
But it was a great grade, I think even for
my Colombian people, from our Latina culture. But I think
one of the top years in my in my career
for sure.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
She couldn't speak English. When she first came here to
just talk to.

Us, she couldn't speak English. And then next time she
came to see us, she spoke better English than we.

tropical and a little flirty exactly. It's just it's a
it's a fun listen. I mean it really, you really
do have fantastic job on this album and you got
to collaborate with some good friends. Yeah.

craziest and the more joyful thing in my career because
this album to be able to know, to have the
homework for me to show the world our different Latina
sounds and all the different instruments that we used to
