I want to touch people's lives with my music and my lyrics.

I really just compete against myself. I look at my previous material and try to surpass what I've done.

It's really sad for me that in the United States the Latino community is losing its culture and language, especially among kids born here - a lot of them can't even speak our language.

I don't tweet very much. I still believe in the mystery of an artist. I believe in going out when I'm ready to sell my product. A lot of artists are out there every day. But I remember the Julio Iglesiases, the Jose Joses - and it was about the music.

I've been able to perform in front of thousands of people on stage in a character that's nothing like me. I'm very shy.

I try to transmit emotion and soul in my voice, but my true passion has always been writing. I feel more like a writer than anything else.

My life is nothing like my videos. I'm definitely not walking around with lots of hot women, as I am in my videos.
