WisinMy favorite Latin dish is arroz, lechon y mofongo [rice, roast pork and mashed plantains].
WisinThere are so many things in Puerto Rico, you eat well.
WisinMy Latin vacations
WisinWell, in Puerto Rico, I’m always on vacation.
WisinI don’t need a vacation.
WisinPuerto Rico is an eternal vacation. 365 days a year.
WisinI have many favorite Latin songs
WisinI really love Ricky [Martin]’s “Livin’ La Vida Loca.”
WisinI think that song was big in that moment and it impacted all of us, so there are many favorites.
WisinAnd from great friends in the genre…and even those outside the genre who have impacted my life with music, so there are many favorites.
WisinMy favorite Latin athlete
WisinWell he’s no longer active, but I really loved Félix “Tito” Trinidad. He’s a retired boxer, a great friend.
WisinI think he’s a true representative of the “Boricua.”
WisinI remember when he used to fight, and when he came to Puerto Rico, we had the day off.
WisinIt was a celebration, so Félix “Tito” Trinidad.
