00:40
What do you think it is about Latin music that connects with people so much?
00:43
Yeah, well, I think it's mainly because like the Latin community is growing everywhere

We're more and more Latin people here like for example in the US
00:51
And I think it's reflecting also in the music that we are listening to and and I'm just part to be part of that community
