You’ve modified your original style and now you are becoming a commercial artist. Why did you do it?
To reach another audience. I want to expand my music. Bryant Myers fans will always be there and I will give them the type of songs that they like.
And how did you come to that decision?
It was a team decision. Besides, I also noticed. It was time to change, in the same way Wisin & Yandel also evolved.
Your album has a lot of romantic songs. From where did you get inspiration?
The tracks were written by me, the album was produced by Alex Killer, the inspiration was born of things that happen around me. Everything happens to everyone and they ended up in my songs.

I'm excited to know that I'm doing well in Hot Latin Songs. It's a big step in my career and I'm going to keep working to keep going up. Bad Bunny was the one who gave the initiative to participate in the song. I uploaded it to Snapchat and there he heard it and called my producer saying he wanted to participate.

The important thing is that you have a good heart and keep moving forward. I did it thanks to the music and the one who criticizes me or does not like me well, God bless them.
