Latin music has a new king and his name is Peso Pluma. The Mexican artist was the most awarded this Thursday at the 2023 Billboard Latin Music Awards, surpassing the Puerto Rican Bad Bunny, who had been dominating the market and the award ceremonies for several years.
Peso Pluma received eight awards, among which four stood out for “Ella Baila Sola”, his collaboration with Eslabón Armado, and new artist of the year. El Conejo Malo left the Watsco Center in the city of Miami (USA) with seven Latin Billboards, the majority for his hit “Tití Me Preguntó.”
Even so, the most applauded number of the night was the presentation of Bad Bunny, which marked his return to some awards in Spanish, after four years of absence. “Moscow Mule”, “Tití Me Preguntó”, “La Neverita”, “Me Porto Bonito” and “WHERE SHE GOES” were part of a medley, before he performed his latest single “Un Avanza”.
For his part, Featherweight often repeated a powerful “Arriba México”, upon receiving each of his awards. His victory in the Latin Billboards reflects the growing popularity of the new rhythms of Mexican music in the United States and the Spanish-speaking world.
His corrido tumbado “Ella Baila Sola” made history in 2023, becoming the first song of the regional Mexican genre to top the Billboard 200 list, which measures the popularity of songs worldwide.
Before his performance, Bad Bunny, who did win the coveted “Billboard 200 Artist of the Year” award, took the stage in his socks. “I came running because I was changing, but I wanted to thank you for the support you have always given me. I make music because I love you and because I like what I do. Thank you,” he expressed.
Among the women, the most awarded was the urban singer-songwriter Karol G. The Colombian was honored for her album “Mañana Sera Bonito.” Additionally, she received the Latin Billboard Spirit of Hope Award, for her philanthropic work in favor of women and children, with her Con Cora foundation.
“This is probably one of the most special awards that I will receive in my entire career. One of the reasons why it is nice to receive these awards is because they give us more visibility and we can help more,” said “La Bichota” when giving him the award. . to the director of her foundation.
The quartet of winners was completed by Colombian Manuel Turizo, who received three for his hit “La Bachata.”
