Everything in life is a risk! I mean, you walk out onto the street and it's a risk! Don't you think?
Fans have been very important in my career. Even though I'm just doing me and doing my thing, they're the captains of this ship.
My ultimate goal in life, with my music, is to make a movement.
I think that sometimes fans or supporters say "I love this artist" but they may not realize that he loves them back.
I hope to touch many Hearts through my music
I met people that I couldn't talk to - they didn't speak Spanish or English - but they knew my songs. That's what I love, the music has gone past where I thought it would get to. That's the power of music, how it can travel and break language barriers.
I'm very clumsy, so there's been a lot of times I've tripped in front of girls I'm in love with, or spilled food all over myself. My friends and I were the class clowns in high school, so one day we were showing off at our seats and I fell off my chair! I had to get stitches, and I had a bloody lip. I was trying so hard to be a cool class clown!
I do want to give out a positive message and be successful.
There are two sides of me, the bachata/tropical Latin side and the English pop as well. They're both equally important, so I'll always make sure to keep both roots in my music.
There are a lot of things going on that's causing a lot of these young kids to head in the wrong direction. I know a lot of kids that are cutting school. I try to give out a positive message, trying to get kids focused. If they don't then they're going to end up like every other hoodlum in the street.
I think behind every great man there's got to be a great woman, whether she's your wife, your girlfriend or not. I'm not gonna say that there's not that special girl out there. But I'm in the music biz, and I'm focused on the music.
Every time I collaborate with an artist, I want to surprise fans. I want to do something new.
I listen to a lot of crazy stuff like pop, techno, rock, hip-hop, rap, baladas, bachata...my iPod is crazy. I like listening to a lot of stuff in different languages, so my music is always out there for me.
I have fans from different cultures coming up to me saying that they don't understand what I'm singing but that they like the music.
I always used to sing in the shower, but I never really got into the music until a friend of mine helped me a lot with recording.
I always saw myself performing on stage and the girls yelling out my name.
Normal, day-to-day things inspire you to write. I try to travel and chill, and go out and enjoy the outdoors. That makes you see the real world. Not just in the studio or at concerts. I live it up as normal as I can.
I was a teenager doing teenager things, and now I have the honor of being on tour with musical giants Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull. I'm doing my music and performing in my own concerts! It just goes to show that anything is possible with hard work.
