GALE plays Fishing for Answers with Billboard backstage at Billboard’s Latin Music Week 2023.
GALEHello I’m GALE and here I am, Fishing for Answers with Billboard.
GALELet’s see… do you prefer recording or touring?
GALEOh, that’s a tough one. I love the energy I feel in the studio, creating, writing a song. It’s like magic, but I feel like nothing compares to being on stage. Singing your songs and connecting with the audience in that way. It’s like kind of electricity. So a bit of both, being on stage more.
GALEWho is your style icon and why?
GALEUhhh…you know I don’t have a specific person, but I’m really inspired by ’90s fashion, I love that ’90s vibe, everything.
GALEI could stay here until tomorrow.
GALEWho would you love to collaborate with on your next album?
GALEOh I don’t know. Not a specific person, but wow. I just released my first album a few months ago. I’m still in that mindset. Although I’ve started working on new music, I’m just too excited. Well some collaborations I’d love…to name a few Pol Granch, Bruses, Manuel Turizo, Shakira eventually I’d love that. Yes.
GALEHave you met someone who left you starstruck? Who was it?
GALEWell, you see…I’ve thought about this a lot because I started composing with other artists who I’ve had the opportunity to write with artists I admire, a lot like…Christina Aguilera and Shakira, who I grew up listening to. Imitating, well, everything. But starstruck? No it hasn’t happened to me. Daddy Yankee. Maybe with him the starstruck feeling could happen, I’ll get back to you.

Billboard’s weekly Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts are based on total points accrued by a songwriter and producer, respectively, for each attributed song that appears on the Hot 100. As with Billboard’s yearly recaps, multiple writers or producers split points for each song equally (and the dividing of points will lead to occasional ties on rankings). Billboard launched its Hot 100 Songwriters and Hot 100 Producers charts, as well as genre-specific rankings for country, rock & alternative, R&B/hip-hop, R&B, rap, Latin, Christian, gospel and dance/electronic in June 2019. Alternative and hard rock joined in 2020, along with seasonal holiday rankings in 2022.
