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.

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 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.

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 never think about any of my accomplishments and I always get butterflies in my stomach and I never get too comfortable with the status.

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