Edgar Barrera:
Karol is Selena’s number one fan. Number one fan. Shakira made me be a better producer because I’ve always said she’s really picky with her songs, her productions and everything. When I got to London, that morning he told me we had a session with Madonna. And I was like, “With Madonna, really?” And he said, “Yes, with Madonna.” Maluma and I worked for a while on the song and structured it, and when she came she said, “No, I want it to be this way.” I sent Peso… We sent him three options of songs. And that’s the one he chose. He chose “Tulum.” At the end, Becky told me she wanted to do a song with Ángela and Leonardo. “Why don’t we do it in mariachi?” First of all, I never thought of being here doing this, on this side of the window. I am always at the back, hidden and I try to have people not know too much about me. I like to be out of focus a bit. I’ve loved music since I was little because my dad is a musician. He has a band called Mister Chivo and I grew up listening to his music and the passion he feels for music, as well as… My mom is also passionate for music. There has been music playing all the time at home. I remember all those nights when, for example, I saw my dad with all the vinyl records listening and listening to music because the group recorded many covers.
