It is the most internationally famous artist in the Spanish music world. His words are undoubtedly ideal to help you improve your knowledge of Spanish.
From Madrid, he started his musical career when he was only 16 years old. From then on he sold millions of records and received a collection of awards. His first record came out for sale in 1989 and was called Los Chulos Son Pa’Cuidarlos, but this techno-flameco style album was not very successful and he had to wait until his second record, Viviendo Deprisa (1991), for his career to take off. Songs such as “Los dos cogidos de la mano” or “Se le apagó la luz”, were big hits on the Spanish music lists.
If there is a record that made him nationally and internationally famous, it certainly is Más (1997). It is not only the singer’s most successful album; it does also contain the song which, probably, made him most famous “Corazón Partío”. After that he started touring Europe, Latin America andUnited States.
He also collaborated with great artists from the music world such as Juanes, Joaquín Sabina, Alicia Keys, Carlos Baute, and more. The most famous collaboration is the duo he made with the Colombian singer Shakira in “La Tortura” and “Te lo agradezco pero no”.
