Eladio Carrion took some time off from Latin Grammys prep to share with Billboard some of his pre-show thoughts.
Carrion’s Monarca album is nominated for best urban album against Bad Bunny‘s El Último Tour Del Mundo, Akapellah‘s Goldo Funky, Ozuna‘s Enoc and Myke Towers‘ Lyke Mike. When asked what he felt about being up against good friends like Bad Bunny and Ozuna, Carrion responded, “I feel very confident. I love my guys to death but — I feel very confident. I know Monarca is a special album, especially a special urban album.”
Carrion also shared his favorite track from Monarca, detailing the importance of the nomination to his work and even previewed his potential winning speech.
