Bad Bunny Wins Five Latin Grammy Awards, Including Album of the Year

Posted on November 14, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

Bad Bunny is celebrating a special first…

The 31-year-old Puerto Rican superstar was the big winner at Thursday night’s Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas, taking home five trophies, including album of the year for his acclaimed Debí Tirar Más Fotos, a project which embraced his island’s musical heritage – and paved the way for him to be named the performer for next year’s Super Bowl halftime show.

It’s Bad Bunny’s first-ever win in the album of the year category.

Dedicating the award to “all the youth of Latin America” he added: “There are many ways of being patriotic and defending our homelands. We chose music.”

Argentinian duo Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso also claimed five awards; with other winners including Alejandro Sanz, Gloria Estefan and Karol G.

The rapidly growing Latin music sector generated a record $1.4bn (£1.06bn) in 2024, making up 8.1% of total U.S. music revenue, according to the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), which said it was shaping culture faster than any other genre.

Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has been at the forefront of that movement. For three consecutive years between 2020 and 2022, he was the most-streamed artist in the world.

Debí Tirar Más Fotos is his sixth album, and fuses live instrumentation with the hip-swaying pulse of reggaetón and traditional Puerto Rican styles like plena.

At the Latin Grammys, the title track earned him best urban song and best urban performance. He also picked up best reggaetón performance for “Voy a llevarte pa PR,” and best urban music album for Debí Tirar Más Fotos.

He’s nominated for six awards at the mainstream Grammys, which take place in February, including the three major categories of album, song and record of the year.

Bad Bunny recently wrapped up a barnstorming concert residency in Puerto Rico; and is about to kick off his world tour in the Dominican Republic.

However, he made headlines when he said the tour would not include any dates on the US mainland because he was concerned his fans might be targeted by immigration raids.

His subsequent booking for next year’s Super Bowl rankled some US conservatives.

President Donald Trump called the decision “absolutely ridiculous” and that he had “never heard” of the star – who has 74 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

The Latin Grammy ceremony kicked off with a star-studded tribute to Mexican-American guitarist Carlos Santana, with Maluma, Edgar Barrera, Grupo Frontera and Christian Nodal playing a medley that began with his hit single “Oye Como Va.”

Karol G and Marco Antonio Solís also took the stage for a sweet duet on “Coleccionando Heridas;” while Gloria Estefan played songs from her latest record Raíces, which went on to win best tropical album.

But Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso were judged to have the stand-out moment of the evening, with a colourful, off-the-wall medley of their hits “El Impostor,” “#Tetas,” “La Que Puede,” “Puede” and “El Día Del Amigo.”

The duo dominated the alternative music categories – winning best alternative album and best alternative song. They also picked up best short-form and best long-form video, and pop song of the year for “El Día Del Amigo.”

Speaking backstage, the childhood friends expressed their gratitude to each other.

“The most important thing here is that we’ve known each other since we were six years old,” said Amoroso.

“All of this wasn’t planned, it just happened. I want to tell Ca7riel that he’s my friend, that I love him.”

Ca7riel then surprised Paco with a long and seemingly passionate kiss.

Elsewhere, Paloma Morphy, a 25-year-old Mexican singer, won best new artist after her debut album, Au, seduced listeners with its catchy melodies and vulnerable stories of heartbreak.

Karol G won song of the year for “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido,” a lilting love song with a Merengue flavor, from her blockbuster fifth album Tropicoqueta.

And Spanish superstar Alejandro Sanz picked up record of the year for his beautiful ballad “Palmeras en el Jardín” – unexpectedly beating Bad Bunny’s smash hit “Baile Inolvidable.”

Season 29 of ABC’s “The View” with Ana Navarro to Premiere on September 8

Posted on August 26, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

Ana Navarro is coming into view again…

The View, featuring the 53-year-old Nicaraguan political strategist and commentator as a co-host, will return on ABC for Season 29 on September 8, the network has nnounced.

In addition to Navarro, the top-rated daytime talk show also features hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, Sara Haines and Alyssa Farah Griffin.

“This is why you should always keep coming back to The View, because you never know what’s going to happen,” Goldberg says in a teaser clip of the new season released on YouTube.

According to 1iota, the free ticketing service used by the series, upcoming guests for The View include Bruce Willis’ wife, Emma Hemming Willis, and Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor on September 9.

On September 11, Barbie Oscar nominee America Ferrera will join the program, which will tape a show with Shrinking actor Michael Urie, presumably to air the following day.

Matthew McConaughey will appear on the September 15 show alongside former Senator Joe Manchin. John Edward, Marlon Wayans and Robin Wright will be on “The View” on September 16, and Lily James will appear later that week.

Guests in the following days include Priscilla Presley, Shark Tank stars Barbara Corcoran and Daymond John, Regina Hall, Gloria Estefan, Tim Allen and Glen Powell and Eli Manning.

Created by Barbara Walters, The View aired its first season in 1997. The show has always featured a multi-generational panel of women who analyze and debate topical issues relating to politics, culture and entertainment.

The series has long been embroiled in controversy and, dating back to Rosie O’Donnell’s tenure as a host, has drawn the ire of Donald Trump.

In July, after Behar claimed on the program that Trump is “jealous” of former President Barack Obama, a spokesperson for Trump blasted The View, calling Behar an “irrelevant loser” and saying the show is “the next to be pulled off air.”

J Balvin Extends Record for Most No. 1s on Billboard’s Latin Airplay Chart with “Rio”

Posted on July 9, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

J Balvin has extended his lead…

The 40-year-old Colombian superstar has extended his unmatched record on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart, as “Rio” soars 11-1 on the July 12-dated list, becoming his 38th chart-topper, the most among all acts.

“I am so incredibly happy,” Balvin tells Billboard. “Every single one of those 38 songs represents a huge milestone in my career. I can’t wait for the next ones.”

“Rio,” named after Balvin’s son, was issued on Jan. 24 via Sueños Globales/Capitol/ICLG.

It surges 11-1 in its 12th week in on the overall Latin Airplay ranking after a 57% increase in audience impressions, to 8.1 million, earned in the United States during the June 27-July 3 tracking week, according to Luminate.

“Balvin continues to redefine what global success looks like in Latin music,” Nir Seroussi, Executive VP of Interscope Capitol, tells Billboard. “His 38th No. 1 is more than a record — it’s a testament to his relentless creativity, cultural influence, and unwavering connection with fans around the world. We’re proud to stand beside an artist whose vision continues to push boundaries and shape the future of music.”

A significant portion of “Rio’s” audience growth is driven by four Univision stations: KVVF-FM (San Jose) leads, followed by KQMR-FM (Phoenix), KAMA-FM (Houston), and WVIV-FM (Chicago) rounding out the list.

“Rio” becomes the fourth song in 2025 to rise 10 or more positions on the chart to No. 1.

So far, Myke Towers’s “Otra Noche” claims the biggest jump to the summit this year. The song, which features Darell, climbed 12 rankings (13-1) in February. Meanwhile, Gerardo Coronel’s “No Se Dice” and Gloria Estefan’s “Raices” both hiked 11 and 10 slots, respectively, to No. 1 in May.

As “Rio” takes the lead on Latin Airplay, Balvin extends his record for the most No. 1s on the chart, with a 38th leader. Here’s a peak at those artists with the most No. 1s on the almost 31-year-old tally:

38, J Balvin
35, Ozuna
32, Enrique Iglesias
28, Bad Bunny
28, Daddy Yankee
24, Maluma
24, Shakira

“Rio” also jumps 3-1 on Latin Rhythm Airplay, where Balvin secures his record-extending 38 rulers.

Balvin performed “Rio” for the first time at the LVMH Charity Gala during the Paris Men’s Fashion Week 2025.

Gloria Estefan to Perform as Part of Good Morning America‘s Summer Concert Series

Posted on June 9, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

Gloria Estefan is taking a special stage this summer….

The 67-year-old Cuban Grammy-winning singer, actress and businesswoman is among the artists set to perform for Good Morning America‘s 2025 summer concert series lineup.

The show’s annual string of mid-year live performances will kick off June 12, with New Kids on the Block delivering what will be the last concert inside GMA‘s Times Square studio.

After that, “Whole Lotta Money” rapper BIA and “No Limit” artist G-Eazy will take the stage July 18 at an outdoor venue in Indianapolis ahead of tipoff at the WNBA All-Star Game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, and Colombian singer Manuel Turizo becomes the first artist to perform at GMA‘s new studio downtown on August 1.

The next two weeks after that will see punk-rock band Good Charlotte and the Icelandic “From the Start” singer performing at the new studio on August 8 and 15, respectively.

Fresh off of a memorable performance at the 2025 American Music Awards, Estefan will take the stage on August 22, followed by Dierks Bentley on August 27, and Teyana Taylor on August 29.

“We’re thrilled to host this year’s Summer Concert Series in our brand-new, state-of-the-art studio,” said Simone Swink, senior executive producer of Good Morning America. “It’s an exciting chapter for us, and we can’t wait to welcome incredible artists and our viewers into our home, right here in the heart of downtown Manhattan.”

All of the performances listed will broadcast live during GMA, which airs from 7 to 9 a.m. ET on ABC.

This year’s programming follows a 2024 lineup that featured Green Day, Carrie Underwood, Nicky Jam, Kane Brown, G-Eazy, Sofi Tukker, Megan Moroney and Old Dominion.

Before that, BTS’ Jung Kook, Carly Rae Jepson, Fat Joe, Busta Rhymes, Remy Ma, Tim McGraw and more performed for the morning show in 2025.

Leslie Grace to Perform Miami Sound Machine’s “Conga” at the 2025 Grammy Hall of Fame Gala

Posted on May 9, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

Leslie Grace can’t control herself any longer…

The 30-year-old Dominican American singer & actress will perform at the 2025 Grammy Hall of Fame gala, which is presented jointly by the Recording Academy and Grammy Museum.

Taking place on Friday, May 16 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, the site of the first Grammy Awards ceremony in 1959, the event will feature performances that pay tribute to the 2025 Grammy Hall of Fame inducted recordings, which were revealed on February 13.

Grace, a former Latin Grammy nominee will deliver Gloria Estefan & Miami Sound Machine’s 1985 breakthrough hit, “Conga.”

Released in September 1985, the festive recording was Miami Sound Machine’s first Billboard Hot 100 hit.

“Conga,” which was written by Miami Sound Machine drummer Enrique Garcia,was the first single from the group’s second English-language album, Primitive Love.

Gloria Estefan assumed star billing in 1987 with the similarly infectious “Rhythm Is Gonna Get You.” She and husband Emilio received the Gershwin Prize for Popular Song in 2019. She was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame four years later. She won her fourth Grammy on February 2 for best global music performance as a featured artist on Sheila E.’s “Bemba Colorá.”

Returning as host is CBS News journalist Anthony Mason.

The show will be produced by Ken Ehrlich, alongside Ron Basile, Lindsay Saunders Carl and Lynne Sheridan.

This year’s additions to the Grammy Hall of Fame meet the main requirements – they exhibit “qualitative or historical significance” and are at least 25 years old. Eligible artist(s), producer(s), engineer(s), and mixer(s) of these 13 recordings will receive a certificate from the Recording Academy.

The Grammy Hall of Fame was established by the Recording Academy’s national trustees in 1973. Inducted recordings are selected annually by a member committee drawn from all branches of the recording arts with final ratification by the academy’s national board of trustees. Counting the 13 new titles in 2025, the Grammy Hall of Fame totals 1,165 inducted recordings.

Gloria Estefan Releases New Single “Raíces” from First Spanish-Language Album in 18 Years

Posted on March 21, 2025 by Tom Castaneda

Gloria Estefan is embracing her raíces…

In the lead up to the release of her first Spanish-language album in 18 years, the 67-year-old Cuban Grammy-winning singer, actress and businesswoman has released the first single from the set, written by her producer-husband Emilio Estefan and aptly titled “Raíces.”

“Always enjoy the moments because you never know what surprises life will bring,” Estefan sings, expressing how love and life are very much like planting seeds. “If you want a good harvest, you need to know how to sow/ With faith and dedication, that tree will grow roots.”

“The song ‘Raíces’ touched my soul the first moment I heard it,” Gloria Estefan tells Billboard Español. “Being a Virgo, my connection with nature is strong, and I see life as a garden, with love as the seed. I believe that what you cultivate with kindness, patience, and faith will one day bloom into joy.”

She adds: “It is important not to miss the opportunity to express love because every sincere word and gesture plants the roots of a beautiful tomorrow — and that is what this song is all about.”

Recorded at their Crescent Moon Studios in Miami, “Raíces” is a tribute to the rhythms that have defined Estefan’s sound: salsa, tropical beats, classic Latin music.

The song will also give its title to her new album — the 30th in a 50-year career — which will be released at the end of May under Sony Music. It will be her first fully Spanish-language album in 18 years, since 90 Millas, which debuted and spent three weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in October 2007.

“For me, recording in Spanish again was a contribution to our music,” Emilio Estefan tells Billboard Español, noting that they worked with “great musicians, engineers, and industry professionals” and that he personally wrote almost the entire album because “I wanted it to reflect our essence: Gloria’s sound and mine.”

“[When we started], I remember people telling us that our sound would never work and that we should change our last name. But we understood the value of our culture and our roots,” he explains, referring to their beginnings in the mid-1970s with the Miami Sound Machine. “When Gloria reached the top of the charts worldwide [singing in English], we took a big risk and decided to record Mi Tierra, an album that represented one of our greatest victories.”

The iconic first LP by Gloria Estefan in Spanish from 1993, which included hits like “Mi Tierra” and “Con Los Años Que Me Quedan,” spent a whooping 58 weeks at No. 1 on Top Latin Albums.

More than three decades later, the renowned Cuban producer and musician along with the singer-songwriter present “a letter of gratitude to the fans, to the press, to those who believed in us, and to the city of Miami, which watched us grow and then allowed us to bring our music to the whole world.”

“It is a moment full of emotions for Gloria and me, a celebration of our culture and our audience,” Emilio Estefan says. “The most beautiful thing about a career is being able to leave a legacy of gratitude.”

Sanz’s Icon Q&A marks his return to Latin Music Week after he sat for an exclusive conversation in 2003.

From his debut in 1991 with Viviendo Deprisa to his album of the year Latin Grammy-nominated latest studio album SANZ, released in December 2021, Sanz has established himself as one of the most well-known and influential artists around the world.

With more than 25 million records sold, all his albums have obtained multi-platinum status in Spain, Latin America and the United States.

Throughout his career, Sanz has collaborated with renowned artists from all over the world, from Alicia Keys to Shakira, Destiny’s Child, Laura Pausini, Ivete Sangalo, Juanes, Juan Luis Guerra, Marc Anthony and many more.

Among his latest releases are “NASA” with Camilo; “La Despedida,” included in the soundtrack of the movie Bullet Train; and “Yo Soy” with Eros Ramazzotti.

He recently obtained his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was honored by his hometown of Andalucía with the city’s highest distinction, a medal with the title of “Favorite Son.”

Celebrating its 35th anniversary, Billboard Latin Music Week will take place October 14-18 at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater. Tickets are available for purchase here.
