Speaker 1I was in Bonero for a month I don't know if it was the company's website, the Corrientes de Bonero and then I saw a jingle on the website I don't remember how old I was and then I saw that it was a great project.

Speaker 1Combine. What do you mean? After Over the? You know there's a dark moment Of the movement and at a certain moment there's a present of the movement and there's a color movement. That's the, the ancient philosophy. It doesn't necessarily Take After the song it ends philosophy behind the book. Not necessarily it brings, because after the book it comes out and the book is clear. I don't realize at what moment I'm reading the book.
Speaker 2When I'm reading the book I'm reading in fantasy.
Speaker 1So after the book, it's clear I realize it's a part of me, something that I don't realize. Then a good friend of mine, francis Ling, who is a painter, he told me hey, dwight, I can tell you that I carry a gospel with me. I told him hey, I can tell you the truth.

Speaker 1I can't even afford it I can't even afford it.
Speaker 3I can't even afford it, I I have a follow-up question.
Speaker 2But what are you going through right now? I'm not going to give you full details, but your life relationship, work.
Speaker 1A compilation. You're in the middle of it, right? It's a compilation of things. It's a compilation of things A couple of times later, as I'm going to live with my wife. It's a combination of things. It's not a paratime of the time that I eat, drink or sleep. There are different factors that can cause you to fall into a certain situation Unconsciously. It's when you have to take a step back. If you don't take it seriously, you will have to go back to do what I like. What do you do? Are you writing? I'm starting to know.
Speaker 1I'm happy with the time I'm flowing what? Writer's block? Writer's block no. I'm going to put my priorities on the table. I'm going to put my priorities on the table. Writer's block. Writer's block no. Um um um, um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um um, um, um um um um, um, um um um um um um um um. I think it's better than that In a way, because it's good food, but actually it's a little bit of a waste, yeah in a way, it's a little bit of a waste.
Speaker 3You're talking about what you're doing, so you're doing this for 13 years.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'm doing this for 13 years, but for what reason?
Speaker 1Because I'm doing this for a good reason. I believe in the old moment, but I think it's an inspiration for me. I was inspired and I've been doing this for a while, but lately, when I was working, I started to get a little more inspired. So I started talking to other artists Not necessarily with the Ski Republic, but I've been talking to Francis Ling lately. He's a tremendous artist and so I want to give you some inspiration with the bottle, with the actual bottle to put it in the bag.
Speaker 2Exactly, I don't want to put it in the bag.
Speaker 1I want you artists to do it, you artists to do it.
Speaker 3I'm talking about, for example, with Jeon, with the last one you guys to do but every you guys seen the man that was over the like, going for something that makes more money or whatever. By every you seen the man that quit for the coquille.
Speaker 1Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank. Since I was a kid, I was convinced that this was my passion, this was my blessing.
Speaker 3So you're not looking for the same thing, You're right. You're right. You know what.
Speaker 1I want to thank you for all the comments.
Speaker 2I have a comment.
Speaker 1Let me tell you something my boss he has a talent he has a talent. So he's not just working for a job, he's not frustrated with the job. He's not going to make music, he's not going to study something he doesn't like. If he's an attorney, he's a professional. If he's a doctor, he's a mechanic he don't like. If you're a lawyer, you're passionate. You're a doctor, you're a mechanic, you're a professor. What do you mean by you? Ah, like I do?
Speaker 3what is it Inspire and motivate?
Speaker 1Yes, you will inspire and motivate. You will not impose on me.
Speaker 3Not like I impose on you, no, no, no.
Speaker 2My parents never imposed on me.
Speaker 1But we as a society, we earn money. It's a hobby, music is a good life.
Speaker 3You don't have a license to paint.
Speaker 1You don't have a license.
Speaker 2Give me a lot of light.
Speaker 1Yes, we are hypocrites. We don't like music, we don't pay for music, we are high, we are blast, but we're in the car. We're blowing. When we're in the car, we're playing music. So we don't have to be hypocrites.
Speaker 3I mean.
Speaker 1Music has its value, artists have their value. If an artist wants to surprise you, a band wants to surprise you, an MC wants to surprise you, respect and appreciate. I mean, if you're in the ABC, if you want to go up, sometimes you have to change your mentality, right?
Speaker 3I found a cheap thing. It's not that expensive. I remember when I was in the episodes with Kev. I was like I'm going to study in the Netherlands and I'm going to do an episode. I was like I'm going to do a show and I was like I'm going to. That's what happened.
Speaker 2She became a mayor, and she became a mayor, she became a mayor.
Speaker 1She became a mayor. She became a mayor, she became a mayor. That's what happened. She became a mayor.
Speaker 3She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor. She became a mayor, she became a mayor. But you never have a final of how you feel about your age or your gender. And in general you don't spend a lot of time pushing yourself to make other people happy.
Speaker 1Correct. You shouldn't be living that way. For example, an artist who has been studying for 8 years at the university doesn't have a diploma. He never has a job, he's just working.
Speaker 2I was in another area.
Speaker 1I was in another area, so I had to serve a job that I didn't get In part A. I always wanted to work. That's the most important thing in life.
Speaker 2So we're going to talk about something that I've done and, honestly, I don't know if you've seen it. I'll leave a comment. It's a book and I know that. Honestly, you know that I love this book. I'm going to leave a comment. I'm going to ask Dwight it's like my favorite version of the book. It's Dwight the Dead. Like I'm going to love it. I love this book. How do you feel about changing your life?
Songwriting Process and Inspirations
Speaker 1I can say initially it wasn't easy. It wasn't easy, it was easy, but it was a beautiful situation. I don't regret it. I'm 100% satisfied. It was a beautiful experience. I don't know how it was at home family, but I know how much I love my family. But every moment when we are together, when we are together, when we fight together, I appreciate the moment. I respect the moment, even though we have a little difference in opinion. But I have to understand that as a father, as a child, I have to be crazy about what I see in the world. I have a certain desire, but I have to always be in agreement with my son. I also have his desire, his vision, his vision, so I have to always respect that. But love, love, love, love, love.

Speaker 1We don't have time. Hey, shit, I'm going to change the tone. Let me start the conversation like this Sorry, I've been in the industry for 11 years. I've been working in the industry for a month. I've been working in the industry for a month. I've been working in the industry for a month. I've been working in the industry for a month. I've been working in the industry for a month. I've been working in the industry. For a month I've been working in the industry. I will mention a few names Raul, piar and Valer, who has been able to come back from a season of injury. He came back from the outside. I always wanted to have a good relationship with the music industry in the Netherlands, with Tommy presenting with us so I wanted to have a good relationship and I'm a security me.
Speaker 1Carry already quantity the music showbiz 30 and pass on the interest band, assemble a couple relation. Cook, cook, cook, cook music on a name, a man, do I get no, no, no, just black booty. This the king, you question the cuckoo booty a to my contact with no soft no. So to my contact with booty knee. Official maintain yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, official, okay, okay, okay, at this moment we are not looking for a singer. At the moment we have a track. We started it when I was seven. We have something that happens. We have something with some other musicians, some other company, some other family, but to answer your question, I don't think so. We don't have a plan. We don't have a plan.
Speaker 3We don't have a plan, I'm afraid okay, okay, thank you only because like it's, it's like relevant now, but when this episode comes out like who gives a fuck, people want to know, I mean like come on bye bye so what do you expect from the bulería like for the upcoming year?
Speaker 1um, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. I agree with the part of Africa, yes, and Dimitri, let me say, is a master bring. He's a part of the compas that was very successful for us three or four years ago. He's also a part of our team. He's a part of the compas in, for example, the last one that Dimitri had in his production. So he's a part of the. For example, the last time I was with Dimitri, I was in a production like that. So we have a lot of songs and genres that we have in our way. So, yeah, it's a rhythm that we're used to presenting. We don't have new material that we have in our way, so you're not expecting original music or covers.
Speaker 1No, both. Both. You know covers. I don't have a problem with covers and you don't, I do. We I like it. If I have the ability to do my best, then I will do covers. If I have the ability to listen to something, then I will feel it.
Speaker 3Converting it. Converting it into my style, I like it.
Speaker 1I like it, but Not for sure yeah.
Speaker 2It's all about. It's all about no. I'm saying no.
Speaker 1If you don't know, Cunho, it's thing.
Speaker 2Fuck that thing. What do you have it made?
Speaker 3Fire, fire the blessing.
Speaker 2The thing. It's so much Wait a second, I'm not being bad. Oh seriously, seriously, you don't know how to say it, oh you got whatever guys Wait a second.
Speaker 3Okay, I'm going to do it again. I'm going to do it again, maya. No, but I'm going to do it again.
Speaker 1I'm going to do it again, but it has an effect. I'm going to do it.
Speaker 2I don't have a cover.
Speaker 1No no.
Speaker 2No, I don't have a cover, pero Of course you have a pero. Hello, come on. I feel that for every cover I drop, I have at least three or five original.
Speaker 1That's not good. That's an album.
Speaker 2And I understand that you're saying okay, lately, how much original, how much music are you? Actually writing, so that we ain't getting this from.
Speaker 3Bulería, which is just being a song that Bulería drops. But are you going to drop a song? Are you going to drop a single or two songs, or are you going?
Speaker 2to drop an album with 10 songs, five covers, five original.
Speaker 1No, I want you. I want you three. No, I want a 3 or 5. It's an original, a cover, a song yes, for me it's good as long as it's good, and I don't like it. But if you look at it, there's a market in Iceland with our multiculturalism. It's not for you to say you know we're not used to public to be different genres. I don't think it's a different genre. I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 2To talk about mixing a different genre in the scene. You started as a house band of Empire for Carnaval in.
Speaker 1Aruba, empire and Bulearia started together. Now Bulearia is there and Empire is there.
Speaker 2Okay. So Abo, coming from Bunear, drinking in Corso, mixing with no I live in Corso.
Speaker 1Okay, so, coming from Mixing? Okay, okay.
Speaker 2Okay.
Speaker 3Okay.
Speaker 2Okay, okay.
Speaker 3Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 2Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay Okay. Crab vitamins Okay, but it's also about surrounding yourself and creating and doing all of this, Because I know that you'll pick up a road fire, a tomb. That's the aspect I sometimes, when I'm in an empire or a carnival, I'm not fully into the road fire and the tomb that man. For a few years there were a few difficulties with the.
Speaker 1I don't know, but I think you have a perception because you are not going to go to the empire but it changed.
Speaker 2I think it changed. I think it changed from the beginning. It was in the beginning, but she changed.
Speaker 1She changed her mind. No, I mean it was a matter of knowledge. It was a matter of knowledge, but I mean it was a perception. After Dwight the Root Fire band, they took us to the Empire and they made us during the season. I always agreed with them. I hope that Bing will not be back before Bing. Temporada Me traen great con Siempre, nanta. Hope you go big. Nota bye back For you Una na big and to Tur Tur I De novo. Nos tengo tendo Que Empire Ni lista Largo de gente. Nanto Care join Empire, pero ya Empire Tien su, tien su. There are a lot of people who take it as a group, so we respect that as a safe place In the environment. It's always good how many people know what it is like in the environment.
Speaker 2So it's hard. You're not going to ask me questions. You're not going to ask me questions. Okay, good.
Speaker 1Go ahead Okay.
Speaker 2No, it's okay, so I'm going to be defensive. No, don't worry. Okay, I'm going to be defensive. If you're not going to be defensive, I'll go to vote. Yeah, I'm going to vote.
Speaker 1Okay, I'm going to be defensive a lot 100%.
Speaker 2That's how it is, you know. Never be mad at that. But with that being said, I feel like the people who participated weren't fully into it. Ar, the people who participated are not fully into it. Aruba in general, awoki is not really into it. But if you get a balance with Awoki in the past few years, if you have a perfect balance, you have enough to say.
Speaker 3you have enough to say you have enough to say you have enough to say if you get a point you can say Thank you.
Speaker 2How did you get to the part of the show Exactly? We are in the middle of it.
Speaker 1It was a back and forth with the Empire team. Okay, we were talking about the repertoire, we were talking about the way we were going to do it, we were talking about the competition, we were talking about what we were going to do, but the important thing is to have confidence in the Bolleria product. I want to say that it's important to have confidence in the product. I pay for Empire. I pay for my own Bolleria. I have Turkish, turkish letters.
Speaker 2Turkish letters.
Speaker 1I have a channel where I go to the streets and sing on the road fire. Let's go. Caribbean Dutch.
