I Work Hard. But I Play Hard,

I'm So Passionate About Making Good Music.

I Grew Up Around Salsa, Merengue, Bachata, Bass Music, Freestyle, Hip-hop, Techno, House, Rave. Miami Is Special For That. It's A City Where You Don't Know If It's More A Part Of The Us, Or Of The Caribbean, Or Of Latin America, Or Of Europe.

I Always Wanna Be Able To Fight, I Always Wanna Be Able To Go Left When They Tell Me To Go Right, Not Because I'm Being Hard-headed, It's Just Me Taking A Creative Stance. I Have No Problem With Constructive Criticism, But, At The Same Time, I Have A Problem With Doin' The Same Thing That Everybody's Doin'. And That's The Way I've Found A Way To Survive In The Music Game.

Humor Is Everything. Everything. Usually The Negatives Turned Out To Be The Most Positive For Me. In The Music Industry, Any Other Artist Would Have Looked At The Situation I Was In And Thought, "oh Man, This Is Not For Me." I Looked At It More Like Darwin Exploring The Galápagos Islands. You Know - Survival Of The Fittest.

The People In Cuba, They Know What I Stand For, And There's A Lot Of People In Cuba That Stand For The Same. But They Can't Say It.
