Karol G
The energy people release, is directed toward me and it’s like I’m a battery, loading.
Karol G
Hey what’s up, I am Karol G and you are watching, Billboard.

It had never happened. Yes it’s true! We are celebrating, we celebrate a lot as a team, but it’s crazy for me to think my album was the first album in Spanish to hit No. 1. To think Karol G is the first female Latin artist on a global stadium tour, is very crazy.
Karol G
I started in 2006 and I realized this month we celebrate 4 years of “Tusa.” But then, my first songs were released 15 or 16 years age. Imagine spending 15 years and thinking when will my moment come?
Karol G:
Someone told me, “Are you doing a stadium tour?” Beyoncé is doing stadiums. Taylor Swift is doing stadium tours. Are you ready for stadium tour? I said no. I’m not ready today. But I’ll be ready because it depends on me and my commitment. And on my team, the tour was planned for 2025. We did the Puerto Rico concert in March. At that moment, which was 11 days after the album was released people knew the whole album.
Karol G:
When I say “I go with the flow,” at the first show, I didn’t have the whole album and there were three dates. In the second, I had 4 more songs, and in the third show, I did the whole album. That’s where I sat and said I’m not interested in numbers, not interested in risk, not interested in anything. I want to do this tour and I want it to be global.
