00:00
I know your are now but I can't wait to the little is here so we
00:03
can go out, we can be like bad moms, you know that movie bad moms
00:07
when they go out and they like party and they get chocolate
00:09
wasted, that's gonna be me.
00:10
And I it's interesting, I feel like it's changed in some ways
00:25
and then some things may not ever change.
00:28
But how we look at them and how we let them affect us is changing
00:32
And I think that's what me and when we talk about paving the
00:35
way, it's some things are always gonna be out of our control
00:39
But the one thing we can't control is how we let it affect us
00:42
you know, and if I daughters one day wanna become athletes
00:45
lawyers, doctors, whatever they tell women that they can't
00:49
be, they will, it'll go in through one ear and out the other
00:53
And I think that that for a lot of women actually now in the music
00:57
industry, a lot of people are recognizing that there's always
01:00
been a lot of talent, just not enough opportunity.
01:03
And now we we are trying to create more spaces in front of the
01:08
cameras behind the cameras and to empower each other and,
01:12
and to, you know, kind of take others under our wing and say
01:16
hey, I may not have all the answers but what you're not alone
01:19
you know, and I think that that's something that I'm seeing
01:20
so much more for women in this industry.
01:23
And I think that that's just so beautiful.
01:31
I remember believing in, I had the demo for like over a year
01:37
and nobody heard what I heard and it was so frustrating and
01:41
I just remember somebody telling me, well, if you think it's
01:44
such a hit, then why would you want to share it?
01:46
And that really bothered me because I thought to myself, you
01:48
know, I grew up listening to all kinds of music English and
01:51
Spanish and I used to think, damn, it would have been crazy
01:53
if Britney and Christina Aguilera went on tour together.
01:56
If they did albums together, the records that that would have
01:59
I didn't have that alliance to look up to growing up.
02:03
You know, it was always the opposite.
02:04
It was the media feeding and pitting each other against one
02:08
And I used to think, wow, that's really toxic.
02:10
And I can't believe the person who just told me that would say
02:12
that because she's dope, she's bad ass, not the ass blow.
02:17
I mean, literally it was, had just hit a billion views and then
02:22
literally like two weeks later, I forget if it was the other
02:25
way around, like hit a billion views.
02:27
And we were both doing it.
02:28
I was like, we got a billion views here.
02:30
We got another billion views here.
02:32
If we come together, that's, that's another billion, that's
02:35
3 billion right there.
02:36
And that it was to me to, to lead by example and say, instead
02:40
of other people getting in my ear and saying, well, you know
02:44
how they gonna tell the difference between you guys, you both
02:46
are really pretty, both are the same size, you both have the
02:51
And it's like we also come from very different places, very
02:54
different experiences and point of views and have our own
02:57
talent and to represent like we are so different.
03:00
So let's come together to show people that, you know, we are
03:04
more together and, and not be, I mean, when I tell you, I died
03:09
when she sent me her parts of, I actually went to the studio
03:13
again to rerecord my parts because I was like, yo, she brought
03:15
the heat like I gotta, I gotta meet her there.
03:17
And I had the idea for the music video when it was a demo with
03:21
like literally just like a verse and a chorus.
03:23
And I remember presenting the video treatment to Daniel Duran
03:26
and, and developing that with him and then sending it to and
03:29
was just always slow down.
03:30
And that's why three years later when Nati sends me and she's
03:35
like, I hear it, I believe in it.
03:38
I was like, I trust you.
03:40
II, I let's do it, let's go.
03:43
And it just, it literally feels, it just feels right.
03:49
The, to someone had sent me the idea of just like the little
03:56
It was just literally the chorus and I was like, Jesus Christ
04:01
I don't think it sounded simple supposedly, but I knew what
04:07
huge song could come out of that.
04:09
I mean, it takes creativity, it takes time, it takes the energy
04:14
But if you believe and this one little part and how huge it could
04:20
be, you could do amazing things with it.
04:22
I got my team to work with me on my part and I, I said I would do
04:27
any type of collaboration for this song for this huge song
04:31
that I have had the feeling it was going to be.
04:35
I mean, there is no one in the world who I have better chemistry
04:40
with since like, even after that, like, personally in general
04:45
like to find someone genuine that you say if I have a hit, this
04:49
is who I'm sharing it with.
04:52
So I'm like, Becky, listen to me, you need to listen to this
04:57
and, and you have to trust that it's going to be what is going
05:00
to be something huge.
05:03
I feel like it's different and I mean, I feel like it has all
05:08
the elements for her and me and for people to enjoy it 100%.
05:14
I know your pre are now but I can't wait to, the practice is here
05:17
so we can go out, we can be like bad moms, you know that movie
05:20
bad Moms and they go out and they like party and they get chocolate
05:24
That's gonna be me and Nazi.
05:25
And I just hear when you're in the club and you hear Yeah.
05:30
And you know, you're about to go pee and you're like, oh, I gotta
05:33
So this song is the wind and you get to the dance floor the moment
05:38
that chorus comes in and you just, it's just, I love it.
05:50
A little bit nerve wracking but it feels fun.
05:55
I really wanted it and I've never been happier before at all
05:58
in my whole entire life.
06:08
I'm like, you are not going out from this house.
06:10
Um She could do whatever she wants.
06:15
I mean, I did it anyway, even if my parents didn't want me to
06:18
do it at the moment because they didn't understand.
06:21
I just want to be very prepared and I thank God that I went through
06:25
everything that I went through just so I could be able to be
06:29
there for her even though she could do her own thing, you know
06:31
But I want to be able to give her the right advice and not come
06:35
from an ignorant place, you know.
06:37
But she could definitely do what she wants.
06:39
I hope that this way, Becky and me are paving, you know, that
06:45
it can be, it can give these little girls a possibility in the
06:49
future and just say, you know, well, it's not impossible anymore
06:52
you know, it's not so hard anymore.
06:54
And I feel like we've been doing a great job at it, you know,
06:57
patting the shoulders for me and me.
06:59
So II I would let her, I would let her, yeah, I was about to tell
07:08
Becky, I was like, you know, just in case I'm, I'm pregnant
07:11
I was like, let me just, I'm, I'm gonna let it slide for now
07:15
I was like, maybe she notices, maybe she doesn't.
07:18
I have so much fun with Becky.
07:20
The, the song is fun.
07:22
The video, it was definitely fun.
07:25
So I was like, I'm just gonna have fun.
07:26
I'm gonna get, I'm gonna get down and that's what really happened
07:34
My queer community like is just so beautiful and so inspiring
07:39
and they continue to be such a huge support to me as an artist
07:44
I think to a lot of us Latinas and because yeah, because we
07:48
know we know, you know, I think they, they see us as like underdogs
07:52
and they felt like underdogs and when we come together, we
07:55
get to really hear each other and represent one another.
07:58
I feel honored that is like, you know, an anthem of some sort
08:03
and I can't wait for, to become an anthem for you guys.
08:06
Too proud to represent.
08:09
Always grateful with the community.
08:11
I feel, I feel like, literally, that's literally what happened
08:14
They saw, they saw us and they felt the same way.
08:18
They're like, you know, they're also struggling for their
08:21
acceptance as women and freaking which is music.
08:25
Why is that something hard?
08:26
So from the beginning from the get go, I felt so supported,
08:30
so supported that everything we do is also like for everyone
08:34
for them just to us, it's very important to do that.
08:41
It's very important and always blessed with the support.
