What’s good, bro?

So we got to talk about it. ‘LA PANTERA NEGRA,’ or, as I can say it better, ‘Black Panther.’ 

Yeah, but you did it well. You did it well. 

Thank you. I try, I try. So tell me, why the album, Black Panther? Why the name? 

First of all, I feel like, like I’m a superhero whenever I’m performing or in the studio, like, when it’s time to do what I do, it’s like putting up the suit. 

I mean, you said when you did our cover, that this album kind of like was a return back to who you are musically. So what do you feel like you left that you’re bringing back here?

I think I left a little bit of the lyricist corner. That’s what I like to do, but I was trying to grow up as an artist and define what else can I do? You know, sometimes you gotta go back to the bottom and you feel like, Let’s go start again. 

I feel like you always do stay true to your roots, whether it’s reggaeton rap, obviously, other genres, but you do experiment a lot as well. So how do you feel? Like you played around a little bit on this album?
