Kany García:
Many beautiful things happen in Billboard. I had seen an interview with her when she was just starting out and she said super nice things about me and many of her fans sent me TikToks of the interview. I stayed with that and thought we would meet at some point.

I would say there are two specific people. But some do that when they have to tell me “García, did you write that there?” or “Did you say that in the lyrics?” or this other person, “García, I have to tell you that when I saw your interview you have to be careful.” These are people who care about me.
