Gloria Estefan tells us about her life in quarantine in Miami, her new album of Brazilian-inspired music, and how she feels about today's new generation of Latin pop superstars
America, as were several of the songs. So when [Sony Music Latin executive] Afo Verde asked me what I thought about [revisiting] my songs, to go to Brazil and record them with Brazilian musicians and arrangers? I was all over it. Getting back in the studio to record vocals on tracks that I had done decades before was a very exciting prospect, but I wanted to do some original tunes, too, for the fans.It was supposed to come out in 2017. But my mom got ill, suddenly, and passed away after 33 days.
Music happens in waves. It belongs to young people that are creating new sounds, and really the only way to create new sounds is to fuse stuff together. When I was young, there weren’t a lot of women in that landscape; there was Carole King and Carly Simon, but it was very male-centric. In fact, Emilio asked me to join the band because he thought it would be cool to have a woman fronting, because there were no bands with female lead singers in Miami.
This year, Jennifer Lopez and Shakira put on a Latina-fied Super Bowl Halftime Show in Miami. But you were, in fact, the first Latina to ever headline the Halftime Show — in 1992! What was that like? representing a culture, that can become a daunting thing. So I was super, super proud of what J. Lo and Shakira did there. People kept asking why I wasn’t in on it. But quite honestly, if you got Shaki and J. Lo? You don’t need anybody else. Everybody has their moment, and they killed it. They really did.
