In the “Nuevo Mexicano: Peso Pluma y Amigos” panel, the superstar invited some of the most exciting artists in the new Mexican music movement, including Fidel of Marca Registrada, Jasiel Nunez and Tito Double P. The speech took place at the Fillmore Miami Beach, with a moderator Bulletin board Latin/Español Head of Content Leila Cobo.
Here are 10 of the best quotes during Nuevo Mexicano's panel:
Pluma peso
- I am an artist who helped Mexican music grow by representing the corridors we love.
- During this year I not only grew as an artist but also as a businessman, which is the big difference from a year ago to today.
- I'm impulsive when it comes to songwriting. is the best way to write is through my impulsiveness.
- I have never taken formal lessons, no singing, and never will.
- My voice has been like this since I was born, you hear it and you know it's Hassan.
- (Why did he want to do corridos?) Because I'm Mexican. I was very influenced by other genres and I listen to everything. I always listened to corridos, Chalino Sánchez and El Halcón de la Sierra. I felt it in my blood.
- I wanted to make a change in local Mexican music and give Mexican music the recognition it deserves.
- My friends Natanael Cano and Junior H paved the way and Mexican music deserved this moment.
- My friends are my pillars in life. When things get bad, you realize who your real friends are. As for friendships, I try to be the same, to respect those who respect me. Helping my friends fills my heart.
- Fidel, a great man, I respect him a lot both as a person and as an artist. I've been listening to his music since I was little [with Marca Registrada]. The first tattoo I got was a corrido he wrote himself.
Fidel:
- We must always be original with what we do and not be afraid of different genres. I started with traditional e-mails. I've also done electrocorridos, I've done reggaeton, I've been encouraged to do everything. A while ago I recorded a song called corridos felices. Check it out. And I said: “Happy corridos? What is it? It reached Maluma's ears, he liked it, got on board and recorded it.
Tito Double P:
- Ever since things got solid with the Peso Pluma project, I've always had a thorn in my side about wanting to release a song. Finally, last year, just a month before I released my first song, a dembow I made was leaked on TikTok and suddenly it was everywhere, with 100,000 videos in a week. Everyone was asking, “Who is that voice?” It was Tito. It was a very strange thing, but it seemed that he was already supposed to sing, as if it was not something we had planned, a song leaks out and Tito Double P is born.
Jasiel Nunez:
- We met, we really hit it off, we taught each other our songs. I always really liked the way he composed (Peso). It was very different and I think that brought us together. We were always criticized a lot, but at the same time our close people were very supportive.
