Recently the Colombian singer Feid was a guest on the program ‘El Hormiguero’ in what has been the promotion of his musical material throughout Spain. And since the fun interview with presenter Pablo Motos, the interpreter of ‘Chorrito Pa’ Las Ánimas’ has let us know some things about his life.
In the program he spoke about the boom that Medellín has meant in the musical field as it is the epicenter of several Colombian artists of international stature, as well as those who are emerging with their music. And in his words he named J Balvin, who considers that he has been the architect of several opportunities for the Paisas and others.
“I think it has been like something that has grown over the years. For many years, obviously, Medellín has been a city that consumes a lot of music of all kinds, obviously, but when reggaeton appeared in the city about 10, 12, 15 years ago, it seemed to take over a generation, which is the generation. My, guys, there are new ones who are making music and artists like Balvin who have opened so much ground for those of us who have been working and doing and who showed that everything was possible to do, it is now that people now not only want to be a doctor, an engineer , doctor, soccer player, they want to be singers too. The people of Medellín are a very demanding audience and very special when you touch their hearts,” said Feid.
What Feid said contrasts with a situation that arose days ago when J Balvin received a comment on one of his publications about new music in which he was told “Definitely since Feid stopped being the one who writes his songs, it stopped being the same.” their songs”.
The criticism did not go unnoticed by J Balvin who decided to respond in his own way to the comment, highlighting the times that Feid has accompanied him in songs, as well as the request to leave aside similar criticisms “that narrative already has to change, it has only been in 3 songs ready? That story is already tired because it is not like that. Go look and let me know, ready?”
It is worth remembering that ‘I’m still missing you’ is one of the songs from Balvin’s ‘Energía’ album, and it became one of Feid’s first great works as a composer. The song about the loss of a loved one peaked at number nine on the Hot Latin Songs chart and number four on the Latin Airplay chart in 2017.
