Ryan and Blessd, how are you? Welcome to Miami. I love that we are celebrating the El Bendito Ghetto Tour. How are you feeling?
Ryan Castro: Very happy. Thankful to God for this. It will be an incredible, unforgettable party for our fans.
We have to start from the beginning. Where did you meet?
Blessed be you: We met in Medellin. Ryan was coming from Curacao. And I was in a country house, I don't remember, and Ryan told me to go to the studio. And I got to the studio.
But had anyone already introduced you?
Blessd: No. We had only talked on social media.
Ryan Castro: Yeah.
Blessed be you: We didn't know each other yet. It was the first time. We met in the studio.
Ryan Castro: First, we flirted.
Blessed be you: We fell in love on Instagram. Both of us. Just kidding, we first talked on Instagram. And he was like, “I’m in the studio, come over.” “Okay, I’m coming over.” I went to the studio, we listened to a few songs, and then our first song came out, called “Lejanía.” I was resentful, too…
Ryan Castro: What do you mean “too much”? I was relaxing.
Blessed be you: So we recorded the song and that's how we met. And it's been like six years since then.
Ryan Castro: Like five years.
Keep watching for more!
