The Latin rock star told The Associated Press that appearing once again on the star-studded event is like a “dream come true.” SEE ALSO: The GRAMMYs’ first wave of performers is announced “I’m very excited. I can’t believe this is going to happen. You know, I’ve been waiting for this moment for many years and we are very excited now that it’s about to come, to happen,” Juanes told The Associated Press early this week in an interview at his recording studio in Miami, where he lives. The Colombian singer, who won Best Pop/Rock Album at the 2014 Latin GRAMMYs with “Loco de Amor,” said he’ll be singing his most recent single which he wrote for the soundtrack of a Disney movie. “We are going to perform a new song called ‘Juntos,’ or ‘Together,’ the song that we made for the Disney movie ‘McFarland, USA,'” he added. “So, yes, we’re rehearsing and practicing a lot, and just … (getting) ready for that big night.” “Juntos” was co-written with fellow Colombian Fonseca and Cuban Descemer Bueno, under the production of renowned Dominican singer, songwriter and producer Juan Luis Guerra, also a GRAMMY winner. Juanes is honored to form part of the movie out Feb. 20th and starring Kevin Costner. “It touched my heart in a very positive way, in a very deep way,” he said. “It’s a very inspiring story.” As for his upcoming performance at the 57th annual GRAMMY Awards show, the AP reports that it may be the biggest Latin moment at the Grammys since Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony sang “Escapémonos” exactly 10 years ago. The “Camisa Negra” singer is winner of two GRAMMYs and 19 Latin GRAMMYs and sees these kind of opportunities as a “big window” and “something very special.” SEE ALSO: Latino artists nominated at the 2015 GRAMMY Awards Besides his soundtrack single and GRAMMY performance, the 42-year-old is currently working on a new album and plans on embarking a U.S. and Latin American tour. The 57th annual GRAMMY Awards will air Feb. 8th live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on CBS. The Associated Press contributed to this story.

The Colombian singer forms part of this month’s Collectors Edition out February 16th and distributed only in his native country. “If anything, I’ve contributed for a new generation to look inward. I want to form part of all of them,” he said on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter before thanking Rolling Stone Colombia and Rolling Stone.

After nearly 25 years in the music business, it seems as if Castro has a new calling –he said so during a recent visit to Chile. SEE ALSO: Cristian Castro heads to Cuba to seek fresh music inspiration The Mexican romantic-pop singer participated at Festival Huaso Olmue, where he not only sang his chart-topping hits, but also remembered his “sexy” picture that went viral early 2014. “I didn’t know I was going to become so famous with that photo,” he said of the snapshot he once tweeted wearing nothing but a banana hammock while posing with a masseuse. “Well, they gave me a massage and I showed off a little bit of my butt,” he recalled, according to many news outlets. “Out of nowhere, I had 14,000 retweets.” While sharing his weird anecdote, the 40-year-old star had a revelation. “Perhaps I have the wrong career and my calling is to do nudes,” he stated. “I like being the Miley Cyrus of Mexico, I like it a lot.” Yes. Cristian Castro –son of Veronica Castro and “El Loco” Valdez– compared himself to Miley Cyrus, the pop star exhibitionist. Quite frankly, he might have a point. Both stars have a carefree personality, they both speak their mind and do as they please. Not to mention the least, they’re OK with showing the world their encantos.

The iconic rock band announced ending November of last year that they were whipping something new next to Colombia superstar Shakira. SEE ALSO: Maná and Shakira come together for the music video of ‘Mi Verdad’ Fans suspected that the two artists were up to something after revealing photos together on Twitter. It was later announced that Mana and Shakira not only collaborated in a track called “Mi Verdad,” but were in Spain for the filming of the official music video. ¡Maná y @shakira juntos en el nuevo proyecto musical de Maná!

Shak pic.twitter.com/yUeQsNWIKP — Shakira (@shakira) November 22, 2014 Though both the song and the video are yet to be released, we have a feeling that the final product will be quite the tear-jerker. SEE ALSO: Mana is first Latin act added to Rock in Rio US lineup The only reason we know this, is because the official video was already showcased simultaneously in four countries to a select group of lucky fans in Argentina, Mexico, Spain and the Unites States. A nearly 50-second clip grasps the heart-warming reactions of these Manaticos. Everything from singing along, hugging and crying. Fans later shared their reactions, saying the video was “emotional,” “perfect,” “incredible” and even “an anthem of unconditional love.” This is the first time the two major Latin acts have worked together on a project. SEE ALSO: Mana is getting ready to kick-off their 2015 tour “Mi Verdad” is the first single released off their new album expected to be released in March 2015. The new album will follow the success of their multi-platinum and Grammy winning eighth studio album, “Drama y Luz,” hopefully going down the same track.

]]> Latin American protest songs have evolved over the decades https://eldiariony.com/2015/01/29/latin-american-protest-songs-have-evolved-over-the-decades/ Thu, 29 Jan 2015 11:01:00 +0000 http://migrationaux19.laopinion.com/2015/01/29/latin-american-protest-songs-have-evolved-over-the-decades/ Just like protest songs helped define 1960s America, today the impact of Latin America’s cancion de protesta can’t be understated bringing injustice to light while advocating for social change. SEE ALSO: Calle 13 and Silvio Rodriguez clash in sweet melody Record producer and recording artist Rachel Faro, who is an expert on not only the history but also the current state of the protest song movement, told Voxxi there are major differences between what Bob Dylan did 50 years ago and what Latin America artists have experienced. “The tradition started with nueva trova back in the ‘70s and ‘80s, with people like Silvio Rodríguez and Fito Páez,” Faro said. “But today, the whole tradition of protest song and the singer-songwriter approach seeps into pop music. It’s much more normal for a pop song to come out with some kind of a stand.” Another difference between the Latin American protest singer and their American counterpart involves the risks associated with speaking ones mind can have life or death ramifications. “Those original nuevo trova protest singers were inspired by the U.S. protest singers, Bob Dylan was a huge influence on those guys,” Faro said. “While their original style and inspiration came out of the U.S. singers, for them it was a lot more real and a lot more scary. Dylan had free speech so he wasn’t going to get killed for singing a protest song.” That’s what happened to Víctor Jara in Chile, where he was a popular folk singer in the early ‘70s. When Chile’s leader Salvador Allende was overthrown by a coup, the military leaders captured the artists and other intellectuals who were against the regime change. “Víctor Jara was a big star and made a lot of records,” Faro said. “When he was rounded up, they stuck them in a stadium with like 5,000 people. When people in the stadium realized that he was there – it’s like finding out Bob Dylan is there – they all freaked out. He started singing to them in the stadium.” “He wrote a very famous poem [known as “Estadio Chile”] about his experience in the stadium, which was found later. What happened is they tried to make him stop singing and they tortured him and broke his hands. They killed him and dumped his body outside of the stadium.” SEE ALSO: Jorge Drexler masters the art of dance rhythms Today, the scene of his murder is now named the Víctor Jara Stadium. The singer’s legend remains just as strong today. In fact, on his last tour of Latin America, Bruce Springsteen performed Jara’s “Manifiesto” nearly 40 years to the day of his death. As for the modern protest song in Latin America, Faro points to the work from artists such as Juanes (Colombian), Jorge Drexler (Uruguayan) or Molotov (Mexican) as defining the Latin American scene. “The most remarkable is Calle 13, a hip-hop group from Puerto Rico,” Faro said. “They’ve got more Latin Grammys than anybody else. They just performed at the Grammy Awards in Las Vegas.” Talk about a memorable event, at the show President Obama announced his immigration initiative, which was followed by Calle 13 performance of its latest single “Multi Viral.” The track is in the true spirit of a cancion de protesta, dealing with everything from climate change and drones to President Obama and the economy. “It’s like a very potent song and the moment was amazing,” Faro said. “Today’s protest music reflects what’s going on. It gives people a voice. Different countries have different issues.” SEE ALSO: Cristian Castro heads to Cuba to seek fresh music inspiration The cancion de protesta has evolved over the decades with artists no longer singing about military dictatorships as much as social change. Faro added, “Now changes have come and they will continue to come. I think a lot of these artists basically are articulating general waves of change that are happening already.”

]]> A two-day festival will honor Selena Quintanilla’s legacy https://eldiariony.com/2015/01/28/a-two-day-festival-will-honor-selena-quintanilla%c2%92s-legacy-2/ Wed, 28 Jan 2015 12:01:00 +0000 http://migrationaux19.laopinion.com/2015/01/28/a-two-day-festival-will-honor-selena-quintanilla%c2%92s-legacy-2/ It’s been two decades since the beloved and talented Selena Quintanilla passed away. Having to live without a wonderful role model has not been easy for Selena fans. Her legacy, however, is more alive than ever and will be honored at a festival in her hometown. Since 1995, the year that we lost the Mexican-American superstar, fans and family members have dedicated their lives to keeping her trajectory in the spotlight. SEE ALSO: How one man became a true Selena fan after her death Everything from dressing up as her for Halloween, singing her songs on TV talent shows and still playing her chart-topping tunes on the radio, Quintanilla is far from forgotten. Now, almost 20-years since her tragic death on March 31st, the Quintanilla family and Texas’ city Corpus Christi are commemorating their lovely star with a two-day music and film festival called “Fiesta de la Flor” (Festival of the Flower). The festival’s name pays homage to Selena’s hit single “Como la Flor,” and is expected to take place near her birthday the weekend of April 17th and 18th. The Latina starlet was born on April 16, 1971. Though the tribute festival is three months away, local news in Texas have reported that the Corpus Christi City Council gave approval for the Convention and Visitors Bureau to use “Bayfront Park” for a festival to honor Selena Quintanilla-Perez. “We are working with them [the Quintanilla family] to make sure the park and adjacent areas are ready to go for a great festival in April that will celebrate music and film and will be great,” said Interim Parks & Recreation Director Stacie Talbert to Southern Texas’ Kiii TV. The city expects about 50,000 visitors to bring in about $1 million to the local economy. The Quintanilla family confirmed this announcement Wednesday. Friday, April 17 Steven James & The Jaded Las Fenix Grammy winner Los Lobos An outdoor screening of “Selena” also will be shown as part of Alamo Drafthouse’s annual Rolling Roadshow of movie screenings, reports Caller Times. Saturday, April 18 Selena’s husband and Grammy winner Chris Perez Selena’s brother’s band Latin Grammy winners A.B. & Los Kumbia Kings Grammy and Latin Grammy Award-winning Los Palominos Grammy winner Little Joe y La Familia Clarissa Serna Nina Diaz Stefanie Montiel Jay Perez Band.

The singer and actress has unleashed her fresh collection “Thalia Sodi Collection” for Macy’s and made Facebook history by becoming the first designer to launch a line via a live stream runway show this week.

The mother of two and wife of music mogul Tommy Mottola, displayed dresses, jackets, pants, blouses, accessories and shoes in her ravishing collection. Following the runway, Thalia took the catwalk and thanked everyone for all their support in this project. “I am grateful and excited with Facebook and the Macy’s family that embrace this opportunity to give the Latina women what we want and what we like,” the Mexican superstar said.

What’s taking him so long? SEE ALSO: Leonardo DiCaprio’s Oscar might come thanks to Alejandro Iñarritu Martin is one of those talents that has it all –the charm, the good looks, the voice and event the acting. We know this because otherwise he would’ve never joined Broadway for “Les Miserables” (1996) and “Evita” (2012). By now we know the Puerto Rican sensation is the whole package, but we think it’s about time he makes his debut in the big screen. And perhaps that fantasy is not too far away, as rumor has it that Martin might team up with Spanish film director Pedro Almodovar for his next production. Among his many projects for 2015, Martin is making time for Hollywood. In fact, it’s been reported that the singer-songwriter is reading various scripts for a potential role. One of the plots that has captivated him is Almodovar’s next production, in which Antonio Banderas will also form part of the cast, according to Tv y Novelas. The magazine also noted that the “Living La Vida Loca” singer is interested in the project because of how controversial Almodovar’s films tend to be. Almodovar is known for directing award-winning films such as “Talk to Her,” “Bad Education,” “All About My Mother,” “Volver” and “The Skin I Live In.” SEE ALSO: Ricky Martin says ‘hello heaven’ as the victim of a death hoax His next film in the works has the title of “Silencio,” though not much information is released on it, we wonder if this is the flick where Martin will make his movie debut.

]]> Cristian Castro heads to Cuba to seek fresh music inspiration https://eldiariony.com/2015/01/20/cristian-castro-heads-to-cuba-to-seek-fresh-music-inspiration/ Tue, 20 Jan 2015 17:01:00 +0000 http://migrationaux19.laopinion.com/2015/01/20/cristian-castro-heads-to-cuba-to-seek-fresh-music-inspiration/ After his banana hammock incident on Twitter and his eyeliner-wearing heavy metal band in 2014, Cristian Castro has toned it down a bit. We can only assume this from his decent and serene posts on social media. Castro had shut down his Twitter account in June and made a comeback five months later, sharing photos of his beautiful baby girl and breathtaking sites from his traveling fun. SEE ALSO: 7 Reasons we’re glad Cristian Castro is back on Twitter One of his most recent snapshots is a photo of Castro in a nice Guayabera shirt next to the iconic Cuban folk singer Silvio Rodriguez.  Along with the picture, read a part of Rodriguez’s song “El Necio.” Yo no sé lo que es el destino, caminando fui lo que fui. Allá Dios, que será divino: yo me muero como viví. pic.twitter.com/cYKeaUPWKJ — Cristian (@CristianCastro) January 10, 2015 Though it’s a nice picture and all, there’s more than meets the eye. As it turns out, Castro was visiting Cuba early January, where he attended a free outdoor concert Rodriguez gave in the capital of Havana on Jan. 9, reports Billboard. Argentine soccer player Diego Maradona was also at the show, enjoying the classics such as “Ojala,” “Unicornio Azul” and “Quien Fuera,” from front row. Now, Castro, who is a romantic pop star of the ’90s, is set to record cover versions of Rodriguez’s songs, according to Cuban and Mexican media reports. No other information has been announced regarding this interesting news and the Mexican singer is yet to confirm the rumors, but we bet it’ll be a piece of cake for Castro to produce such album. The “Por Amarte Asi” singer already has two tribute albums out, including one that honors Mexican crooner Jose Jose, which topped the number one spot on Top Latin Albums. For Rodriguez, on the other hand, it won’t be the first time an artist pays homage to his music. SEE ALSO: Best kiss, ever: Gael Garcia Bernal in Calle 13 video Chilean alternative band Los Bunkers released their album “Musica Libre: Tributo a Silvio Rodriguez” in 2010, adding a twist of Latin rock to the folk tunes.

]]> New Year’s Resolutions stars should make and never ditch https://eldiariony.com/2015/01/17/new-year%c2%92s-resolutions-stars-should-make-and-never-ditch/ Sat, 17 Jan 2015 20:01:00 +0000 http://migrationaux19.laopinion.com/2015/01/17/new-year%c2%92s-resolutions-stars-should-make-and-never-ditch/ A new year is always the perfect time to turn the page and start fresh. That’s why many people partake in the tradition of making a “New Year’s Resolution.” But two weeks into the game, a lot of people tend to go back to old habits and call it quits, especially on “Ditch New Year’s Resolution” day Jan. 17th. Perhaps you’ve been kicking butt at the gym, saying no to alcohol and rejecting cigarette breaks, but all of a sudden you lack motivation. News flash! Experts say it only takes 21 days to form a new habit –you can do it! SEE ALSO: VOXXI Wish List: 10 Things we want from Latino stars in 2015 If keeping on track for three weeks seems like a bore, we’ve got a something that will cheer you up and encourage you to NOT to ditch your resolution. Here are eight new year’s resolutions celebrities should make and NEVER, EVER, EVER ditch. 1) Jennifer Lopez settling down with one guy I think it’s safe to say that Jennifer Lopez has a longer “Boyfriend” resume than her discography and filmography put together. Ok, maybe we’re exaggerating, but it would be nice for for the 44-year-old global sensation to settle down once and for all. The newly-single William Levy would be the perfect candidate. 2) Kim Kardashian snapping less selfies Kim Kardashian has almost 25 million followers on Instagram –which probably keeps her pumped to share selfies 24/7. Maybe Mrs. Kardashian-West should put her cellphone(s) aside and set her priorities straight. What’s more important, a selfie book or a photo album of North’s first years? 3) Romeo Santos aiming for the GRAMMY O Romeo! O Romeo! When will you win a GRAMMY? With two successful solo albums already out: “Formula Vol. 1″ and “Formula Vol. 2,” we feel that it’s about time he gets a recognition from the Recording and Latin Recording Academy. Maybe “Formula Vol. 3″ can get the job done? After all, you know that they say, “third time’s the charm.” 4) Leonardo DiCaprio fighting for the Oscar But Romeo Santos is not the only one who gets snubbed at prestigious award shows. Leonardo DiCaprio has been getting the short end of the stick for years. He should definitely keep fighting for his first Oscar win. He’s already proved to the Academy that he’s one hell of an actor, why can’t they just hand him a golden statue already? 5) Thalia toning it down on social media Someone please disconnect Thalia’s Internet connection. Really. The Mexican actress and singer is loved by many people around the world, but she can get pretty annoying on social media. Just this week she posted nearly 50 photos on Instagram. Does she or doesn’t have a life? We’re confused. 6) Selena Gomez dropping Justin Bieber Selena Gomez should dedicate 2015 to staying away from on-and-off boyfriend Justin Bieber. He’s up to no good, sweetie. We know it’s “what the heart wants,” but we tripple-dog-dare you to ditch him for good. 7) James Rodriguez sticking to underwear modeling He’s great on the soccer field, but he’s also great at modeling underwear. That’s why James Rodriguez should stick to making more sexy clothing ads and not ditching the hobby. SEE ALSO: Best of 2014: The hottest and sexiest Latino stars of the year 8) Miley Cyrus should stop being Miley Miley Cyrus seems like a carefree person, not really sure if she’s big on New Year’s resolutions. Regardless, we have two in stock for her –which she should never ditch: Keeping her clothes on Sticking her tongue back in Perhaps we’re asking for too much from these stars, but it’s worth a try. You know what else is worth a try, NOT ditching your New Year’s resolutions.

]]> What if instead, Michael Jackson was the King of Salsa? https://eldiariony.com/2015/01/16/what-if-instead-michael-jackson-was-the-king-of-salsa/ Fri, 16 Jan 2015 18:01:00 +0000 http://migrationaux19.laopinion.com/2015/01/16/what-if-instead-michael-jackson-was-the-king-of-salsa/ What if instead of being known to mankind as the “King of Pop,” Michael Jackson was known as the “King of Salsa”? It sounds odd, but a group of salsa artists is up for the challenge. SEE ALSO: The Michael Jackson ‘Experience’ to premiere at Billboard Music Awards Evidently, Jackson’s legacy lives on nearly six years after his death, and that’s why one Peruvian-American musician and composer decided to pay tribute to the late pop artist in the most sizzling way possible. Inspired by Jackson’s massive hits, Tony Succar has created “UNITY: Tributo Latino a Michael Jackson,” a tribute album with 12 of MJ’s popular songs. But consider this an album like no other, as Succar has invited other Latin artists to bring back songs such as “Thriller” and “Billie Jean” but with a tropical twist. “The common denominator in Michael Jackson’s music was love, the reality is unity,” said Succar in a statement. “I wanted the title to mean something, a marriage between American pop and Latin roots keeping the legacy of Michael Jackson alive.” On this journey, the musician invited renowned artists such as Tito Nieves, Jon Secada, India and Obie Bermudez, among others. “I’m a huge fan. I had to do something about it,” Succar added. SEE ALSO: Shakira and Iggy Azalea? New Shak album sounds promising Dancing salsa to Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal”? Who would’ve ever thought. UNITY will be available April 14.

If so, put your sorrows aside and start packing and get ready for Bonnaroo 2015, to take place in the middle of summer from June 11th to 14th. At Bonnaroo, the show goes on almost all night and you can also enjoy good food and the feeling of being in a farm —or close to it, but surrounded by music, attractions and fun. The 2015 Bonnaroo Lineup Headliners at the festival include singer and pianist Billy Joel, British quartet Mumford & Sons, Canada’s Deadmau5 and California-based 27-year old rapper Kendrick Lamar. SEE ALSO: Coachella 2015 will be all the rage –do you have your tix? Not only do the headlining acts give us a better feel of what to expect at the festival, but so does the list of other great performers invading the concert, such as Robert Plant, My Morning Jacket, Alabama Shakes, Florence + The Machine, Tycho, Tears for Fears, Flying Lotus and more. Bonnaroo takes place in the outskirts of Manchester, Tenn., on a 700-acre location. There are several ways to reach the facilities from close cities as well as possibilities for camping, including RVs. Activities during the festival include a parade, food trucks, cinema and much more. Children are welcome and tickets can be purchased by payments —sort of lay-away system. On the festival’s website there is plenty of information about the facilities and accommodations. Tickets go on sale starting Saturday, January 17 at noon. For the complete list of artists, click here. Latino artists There are two Latino artists invited to perform at Bonnaroo this year: Chilean hip hop singer and composer Ana Tijoux and Detroit’s Jessica Hernandez & the Deltas. Ana Tijoux Ana Tijoux is already a well established artist and she became a constant presence around the U.S. She jumped to fame with the song “1977” —the year she was born in France of Chilean political refuges parents. Tijoux’s lyrics most of the time make social references while her music blends traditional hip hop with strings and some local Latin tunes. Tijoux also cooperates with other artists, producing a beautiful mix of tunes and languages, like with Shadia Mansour, Jorge Drexler and Julieta Venegas. Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas is a Detroit-based band with a rich blend of rock with blues tones and, yes, some Latin touches. Jessica is the daughter of a Mexican mother and a Cuban father who studied fashion design and music. No wonder she goes both, designs her own clothes and creates her own music. This will be the band’s second appearance in Bonnaroo, the first time was in 2012. SEE ALSO: Which Latino acts will invade Coachella Festival 2015?

The Miami-based powerhouse is ready to kick a** in 2015 with her debut studio album “My Garden.” “We put together the best 11 records I’ve made in the last three years,” Kat Dahlia told VOXXI about her new production for which she recorded over 100 songs. “In a way it’s kinda like my greatest hits.” SEE ALSO: Which Latino acts will invade Coachella Festival 2015? After dealing with health issues and a rough year in 2014, the 24-year-old urban artist is off to a good start. The first gem of the year is the release of her first studio album called “My Garden.” “The fans have been waiting for it. Everything happens for a reason and the timing is right,” she said. For Dahlia, all the tracks in the album are her babies, primarily because they all have a different story to them, but one of the records that really hits home for her is “Just Another Dude.” “A lot of people can relate to that record,” she said of the song that speaks of an abusive relationship. “It’s really special to me.” Another single that stands out, aside her hit singles “Gangsta,” “Crazy” and “Mirror,” is the only Spanish-language tune on the album, “Tumbao.” As a Cuban-American, Dahlia told VOXXI that she definitely wants to “put out a project in Spanish.” In addition to the launch of “My Garden” out January 13, Dahlia embarked her first-ever headlining tour ending last year, recalling the multiple gigs around the states as one of her favorite experiences ever. For Dahlia, the new year is a chance to find balance and set her priorities straight. “I want to find balance in having my priorities right, but also having a good time and making sure that work is always at the forefront,” she said of her new year’s resolution.

But that has recently changed now that it’s been rumored that he’s heading to retirement. As the speculations made the rounds, Iglesias found the urge to let fans know the truth. SEE ALSO: Ten reasons Julio Iglesias is full of swag It’s been over 45 years that the romantic Spaniard has been singing to multiple generations, and all we can say is “Julio, please don’t leave us!” And surely enough, the legendary crooner is not going anywhere, speaking up about his retirement and denying all rumors. “About my retiring, no way,” he said to Spanish news agency EFE. “I’m going to sing more than ever.” Maybe Iglesias, 71, had plans of stretching his career until his 72nd or 73rd years to call it quits like Vicente Fernandez did. But after those rumors, he’s confirming to his worldwide fans that’s he’s going to be here forever and ever. “I’ll keep singing until I die and as long as people want me to sing,” he stated. “As long as people from Finland to China want me to sing, I’ll continue to appear on stages around the world.” We know he’s not kidding, because after all, Iglesias had his agenda packed in 2014 with a world tour that ran from early February to ending November. The new year looks just as promising, with multiple concert dates for February and March. Evidently, there’s no stopping the Spanish singer now, especially after being named “the most successful Latin artist of all time.” SEE ALSO: Julio Iglesias: The most successful Latin artist of all time There’s nothing to fear, Julio Iglesias is not throwing in the towel, and in his own words, “la vida sigue igual.”
