Isabela Raygoza:
Hello, I'm Isabela Raygoza and I'm here with JOP de Fuerza Regida
Job opportunity:
Hey, what's up? We're stuck here.
All good?
Happy to be here.
Thank you. Well-
Thank you for inviting us.
It's great to have you here in New York. You know, I'm from Southern California too, so San Bernardino represents me here.
I've only seen you in Cali.
You've only seen me in Cali, and I'm from Cali, and I always come back on vacation. But, you know, that's why I…
Just vacation?
Well, now I know I should go more often.
Yes, you have to go more.
But, hey, let's talk about your new album, 'PERO NO TE ENAMORES', honestly, great. I'm amazed by the sound transitions you've made. But before we talk about the new sounds, let's talk about the title, 'PERO NO TE ENAMORES'.
That's the mood right now, I've said it in a couple of interviews, it's a bit of everything. If you think of the name “PERO DON'T FALL IN LOVE”, that's what it is.
Okay, okay.
As in general,
Okay, okay.
Everywhere.
Yeah, that's the vibe right now. I was also quite surprised by how you were able to fuse these two styles, you know, Jersey Club and corridos. You coined Jersey Corridos. How did that mix come about in the first place?
Before I answer your question, let me ask you a question. If you've been here for 10 years, do you like Jersey?
Keep watching for more!
