Carin LeónHey what’s up Billboard, greetings from your friend! Carin León! This is “Tour Stop,” so come with me fam.
ProducerThis is the tenth sold out show?
Carin LeónYes! The tenth! No, it’s amazing you know? Our audience here in the US, can we say bad words? They’re f**king extra! Super extra!
ProducerHell yeah!
Carin LeónOh, well, see, there’s not nothing more Mexican than that. Truthfully, it’s very natural for us especially up North in Sonora. Sorry, this is me.
Carin LeónI’m really foul mouthed. How do you say in English?
ProducerLike sailor mouth?
Carin LeónSailor mouth? That has a lot of meaning. I’m like a sailor man. There’s a lot of music inside of me that I’ve been collecting with all these years. I was doing music since I was a kid. Representing Mexico is always such a great source of pride. Pure blessings, I have so much to be grateful for, and here we are to serve the great lady of music. All time I broke records. No, not the good ones, but this is a positive one, like being the most grossed Latin artist on this venue, like on the BMO, most ticket sales.
Jorge JuarezToday, Carin breaks the record of most tickets sold and box office gross.
