9: Victoria "La Mala" is REMARKABLE! | One-on-One with Andro Mammo | Episode 9 |

On this episode of One-on-One with Andro Mammo, Regional Mexican artist, @VictoriaLaMala sits down and discusses the journey that's led her to where she is right now! 

In this exclusive one-on-one conversation, #VictoriaLaMala talks about how she's been able to make a name for herself in the very male-dominated genre of Regional Mexican music. She also gets candid about her upbringing, solo move to NY from Mexico City at age 19, pursuing music, meeting her idol #JenniRivera, the impact #PepeGarza has made on her career, and so much more! 

Victoria Ortiz, a.k.a, Victoria La Mala grew up in Mexico City and knew since childhood that she belonged on a stage. As a child, she would watch Selena Quintanilla in awe and could imagine herself doing the same exact thing. Victoria began to study music and listened to all genres. She would listen to icons like Whitney Houston, Aaliyah, Mariah Carey, and actually envisioned she would pursue a career in R&B music, but that all changed after she moved to New York from Mexico City. While in New York, Victoria realized how special her culture was and made the decision to pursue a career in the very male-dominated genre of Regional Mexican music. 
Early on in her career, it was difficult for Victoria to make strides in the industry until she decided to record a rendition of Olga Tañon's "Mala" and that changed her life. 
Her rendition of "Mala" would be heard by Pepe Garza - one of the most respected men in the Regional Mexican genre, discovering artists like Jenni Rivera. Pepe would give Victoria an opportunity by playing her song on the radio leading her to finally making a name for herself in the industry. 
Over the last decade, Victoria has continued to pave her own path, often experimenting with different sounds and fusions. 

In our conversation, Victoria spoke about how motherhood has changed her life and approach to life and career. She hopes that through her work, she will inspire others to follow their dreams and live their lives authentically.
