Moderated by Griselda Flores, senior writer at Billboard Latin, the three Mexican artists were joined by manager Guillermo Rosas to talk about their extraordinary comeback story and the connection they have with their fans. 

“The force of pop still exists no matter the generation,” said Perroni. “RBD has surpassed music and it became a heart to heart connection.” 

“It’s a 20-year story,” Rosas added. “The mark they have achieved for Latin pop throughout the planet is impressive.”

The ultra-successful Mexican pop group, which also counts with members Anahí and Dulce Maria, disbanded in 2008 after conquering the world in the early 2000s with hits such as “Sálvame,” “Rebelde,” “Nuestro Amor and “Sólo Quédate en Silencio.” Earlier this year, the group announced their highly-anticipated reunion tour, the band’s return to the stage in 15 years.

“RBD is our audience, it’s music, it’s the moment,” Chávez noted. “It’s  therapy not only for our fans but for us too because we’re returning to the past. It connects with something far beyond.” 

Celebrated for more than 30 years, the 2023 edition of Latin Music Week includes a Superstar Q&A with Shakira; the Legends on Legends chat with Chencho Corleone and Vico C; Making the Hit Live! with Carin León and Pedro Capó; a panel with RBD’s Christian Chávez, Christopher von Uckermann, and Maite Perroni; Superstar Songwriter discussion with Edgar Barrera and Keityn, among many other panels, Q&As and workshops. This year’s Latin Music Week also included showcases by Peso Pluma, Mike Bahía and Greeicy, DannyLux and Fonseca, to name a few. 

Official partners of the 2023 Billboard Latin Music Week include AT&T, Cheetos, CN Bank, Delta Air Lines, Lexus, Netflix, Michelob ULTRA and Smirnoff.

Latin Music Week coincides with the 2023 Billboard Latin Music Awards ceremony, which will broadcast live from the Watsco Center in Coral Gables, Fla., on Thursday (Oct. 5) and will air on Telemundo. It will also broadcast simultaneously on Universo, Peacock, the Telemundo App, and throughout Latin America and the Caribbean on Telemundo Internacional.

Titled “Wisin and La Base: Eye of the Tiger, presented by Smirnoff” and moderated by Puerto Rican radio host and podcaster Molusco, see seven things we learned about the Latin urban movement during the conversation. 

1. “There is no manual for producing, but in the urban genre, we always work as a team. Since the beginning, it’s been in our DNA to work with several artists.” – Wisin

2. “The muse, first of all, has to be good. We are in a digital world, and in these times, what is most important is quality.” – DJ Nelson

3. “‘Stage songs’ are the ones where the track speaks and from the first phrase, people sing them. That’s a trick to achieve.” – DJ Nelson

4. “Urban artists have dared to experiment with other genres and we continue to be urban artists.” – Wisin

5. “The genre has come very far thanks to collaborations and fusions. More than anything, the collaborations make this genre unique.” – DJ Nelson

6. “Opening that door to touch the sky is difficult, we have no explanation but it’s always about work and discipline. We never thought that the urban genre would be where it is.” – Wisin

7. “Now we work faster and we have to adapt. We are already preparing for AI. Technology is changing a lot.” – Luny Tunes

Manuel Turizo has had an extraordinary year; his Marshmello collaboration “El Merengue” received a Latin Grammy nomination, and his list of collaborators was expanded thanks to hit songs like “Copa Vacía” with Shakira, “Vagabundo” with Sebastián Yatra and Beele, “De Lunes a Lunes” with Grupo Frontera and “Los Cachos” with Piso 21.

It’s a musically eclectic and prolific path that the 23-year-old Colombian star began at the age of 16, when he uploaded “Una Lady Como Tú” — a song he co-wrote with his brother — to streaming services. “Lady” quickly became the song that put him on the map and changed his life.

“At first you have no idea about anything,” Turizo recalled on Wednesday (Oct. 4) at Billboard Latin Music Week, where he participated in the Rising Star Q&A panel presented by Delta Air Lines and moderated by Jessica Roiz, assistant editor, Latin at Billboard. “When we wrote it, we were trying to figure out how the hell to upload a song to Spotify. I asked my cousin, who was better off financially, for his credit card. It cost $9 to upload each song,” he added.

On how he seized the momentum to not remain a “one hit wonder,” he said “that is done by getting into the studio and making music all the time, building a path little by little.”

Known for not pigeonholing himself into any particular genre, the “La Bachata” performer enjoys exploring new music styles and challenging himself. It’s something his own team didn’t understand at first; in fact, Turizo said they initially advised him not to release a bachata, because it was a Dominican genre and not Colombian.

Ultimately, though, he decided to follow his gut. “It is important to listen to your team, but I have the last word, I say what I want to record,” he said. “Today, they get my vision.”
