Later, we decided we wanted a Latin rapper on the track too, as we thought it would bring strength to the song. I remember a couple of months ago, Charlie saying “I want Jason Derulo on this song.” I was like “I do too! But is that possible?” He’s like “yeah, we’re going to make it” and then weeks later, he said Jason heard the song, loved it and wanted to cut some vocals. My manager Charlie was part of the session as well and we went through so many different versions - Spanish, English, and a little bit of both. We just wrote the song for fun and then the song went through an English version. Thinking about where the song started, I always get a little emotional and excited for myself because and when we wrote the song, it wasn’t even for me. “Originally the song was written in Spanish – like fully in Spanish – and I wrote it with a couple of friends, including my best friend.

Can you give us an inside look as to how “1, 2, 3” was written, recorded, and how the features with Jason and De La Ghetto came about? It sounds like you are super passionate about this record. I’m so so so excited and so proud of the whole team for this big accomplishment.” Also, the chance to have this feature with Jason Derulo and De La Ghetto – it’s huge! I literally wake up every morning and can’t believe this is happening. There’s just so many different emotions when thinking about it - I’m just so excited, anxious, happy, and proud of “1, 2, 3.” I just really believe in it, and I want people to finally hear it, see what they think about it and how they feel about it. “So the name of the song is “1, 2 ,3” (uno, dos, tres) and I’m very, very excited because I wrote the song like a year and a half ago and have been waiting a long time to release it. I feel like it will and that’s why I’m really excited/anxious about it.” It was so much fun! A different experience for sure, and I really hope this next song is going to do well. That’s just so cool! And I got to perform “How to Love” with Cash Cash last year at a club and people knew it from the beginning to the end. “It’s crazy! Actually, Charlie (my manager) just showed me a photo of his friend in China who was listening to my song “How to Love” on the radio. How is it coming to the US and having people listen to your music? “At first, people were questioning why I was singing in English since I’m Mexican, but honestly, I think everyone has been reacting in a really positive way! I consider myself very lucky.” Did you face any challenges by making the jump from Monterrey to Los Angeles? We started an independent label and released a couple of songs on YouTube – original songs, at first in English and then partnered up with Warner Latina and released my first single.” I moved with my managers to LA and decided to take the risk and follow our dreams.

After that, I did castings for TV shows and then I moved to Guadalupe, Mexico for a girl band, went back to Monterrey and then to Los Angeles. I’ve been singing since I was 8/9 years old but when I was 12, I got to go to a real studio and have the opportunity to record original songs.
