We are here at the 2024 Billboard Latin Music Awards
00:05
with one of our winners, Latin Pop Song of the Year,
00:08
Nacho Mafio Benesti,
00:10
we don't know where you are.
00:11
Congratulations!
00:12
Thank you, thank you.
00:13
Mafio, what do you owe this shout for?
00:15
This shout, I wanted it for a while,
00:17
I mean, I broke my lungs,
00:19
and I shouted so loud,
00:21
and nothing, I'm still shaking,
00:23
look, I'm still shaking,
00:25
but nothing, with a kiss from the gringa,
00:27
I calmed down.
00:29
Well, I'm very happy,
00:31
imagine, not only having a colleague
00:33
that I respect, love and admire,
00:35
but a brother in life, right?
00:37
Music has made our bonds stronger,
00:40
and I think that energy, that chemistry
00:42
that we have when working together
00:44
has given wonderful results.
00:45
Songs like Cristina,
00:46
songs like Tú me quemas,
00:49
or Mambo a los haters,
00:51
this song,
00:52
Alabaré,
00:53
Alabaré,
00:54
which is a song we made for God,
00:56
and maybe God is also sending us this award
00:58
to give him his recognition.
01:00
The truth is that we are very happy
01:01
to be able to celebrate this together.
01:03
It's not normal, Nacho, Mafio,
01:05
Venesti, who's out there,
01:06
who's presenting an award.
01:09
It's spent more than 10 weeks in our charts,
01:12
did you think this song
01:14
was going to achieve all this?
01:16
I think,
01:17
I think we are always doing crazy things,
01:19
because everyone is always doing like,
01:22
this is what is going to sound,
01:23
and we are always very faithful
01:25
to the merengue,
01:26
to the electronic merengue,
01:27
and that electronic merengue
01:29
where you,
01:30
I mean, you can grab your partner
01:32
and you can dance together,
01:34
and talking about love,
01:35
do you understand me?
01:36
Because I think that is being lost a little bit
01:38
when people no longer talk about love.
01:41
It's not normal.
01:42
It's not normal.
01:43
It's not normal, yes.
01:45
What did you think, Nacho?
01:47
No, well, imagine,
01:48
I feel,
01:50
let's say,
01:51
my essence
01:53
also within this rhythm,
01:56
because,
01:57
imagine,
01:58
from that song called
01:59
Mi Niña Bonita,
02:01
our love for the merengue
02:03
is indisputable,
02:05
and to be able to bring to 2024
02:08
a sound that had such a strong time
02:11
and still see the recognition,
02:13
even though there are other genres
02:15
that are, let's say,
02:16
right now in vogue
02:18
or being more listened to,
02:20
well, it also speaks
02:21
that we remain faithful
02:23
to what we like
02:24
and what we believe in,
02:25
and when you remain faithful to yours,
02:27
you always get good results.
02:29
Well, now to celebrate
02:30
and close with a golden brush,
02:31
I want you to sing me a little piece of
02:33
No Es Normal.
02:34
No es normal
02:35
Lo que yo siento por ti
02:37
No es normal
02:39
Juro que nunca sentí
02:41
Algo igual
02:43
De mi vida y mi vida
02:47
Congratulations, guys.
02:49
You deserve it.
02:50
Gracias, Jen.
02:51
Thank you. Congrats.
