• Changes The conversion of Marco Antonio Solís, the Mexican idol who went from wanting to be a priest to singing to gay love

  • Music Ricardo Arjona: "At times my work has put me in fantastic places and at others, in terrible places"

Singer- songwriter

Kany García

is only 39 years old.

But she has so many stories that she could easily write a book out of them.

And it is that the

six-time winner of the Latin Grammy has a

soap opera

biography

that began when

a Murcian priest "fell on" a Puerto Rican

and they gave life to a girl who, in a short time, became one of the most daring singers of the industry.

An artist expert in

heartbreaking ballads,

who dedicated a song to dildos, who has experimented with urban rhythms and who now -seven years after telling the world that she fell in love with a woman- decides to make a hit that shows that plans They can change in a second.

"It's about

Agüita e coco

. It's a song that tells that refreshing thing about

when someone comes into your life,

unexpectedly, and changes your calendar in its entirety. It refreshes and changes your path. That's why it's called that, because it's a clear image of that exact moment. Also,

it's a very tropical title

for a tropical song. Which is something very different from what I've been doing. Now, after the pandemic, I'm looking for the possibility of making songs that put you always good. And although not all the songs on my next album are happy, they all have

an angle of 'we're going to get out of this,'"

Garcia told LOC.

She has 12 awards at home and in 2020 she was the most nominated woman for the Latin Grammy.

But... Doesn't all that flattery cause her some kind of pressure? I think if I put that pressure on her, I'm going to screw up, definitely!

[laughs] Because the day I walk into a studio thinking about the pressure of overcoming nominations, I'm going to start doing things I don't like just because I think people expect something from me... And walking that way is going for the opposite side of the side where I do want to walk. He has a strong character.

Did she inherit it from her parents?

I understand that her father is a former Murcian priest.

Is there something in you that makes you feel Spanish? A lot of things.

Clearly, growing up in a house with a Spanish father and a Puerto Rican mother had wonderful benefits.

For example, my dad always instilled culture, gastronomy and music in me.

And I, even living in a place influenced by salsa, learned to play castanets and listen to Rocío Jurado and Isabel Pantoja.

And that was something absolutely enriching, which had an effect on my way of seeing life. I am curious about the story of her parents, because not everyone can tell that their father left the priesthood because he fell in love with a woman. It is a story wonderful, although I think you can see it from many angles.

On the one hand, part of a TV series.

People tell me "oh my God, he was a priest!", but I always saw it differently, because they always explained it to me naturally... And, for me, his story is one of brave people and that's why I I am proud to tell you.

Although when I told it as a child, people looked at me a little strange and told me "

Do you feel that the recognitions are a kind of revenge against that man? [Laughs] It's funny, because I always see him and today he is a guy who is very proud of me.

I regularly go to the symphony, because my brother plays in it, and I laugh a lot when he congratulates me, because inside I always have that "oh, this man... take it back!".

Although now I think that perhaps she said it because she knew that I was not going to dedicate myself to the cello... Speaking of difficulties, fate played a trick on her in 2004. She was selected for a talent and the day the program began, she had an accident which caused a pelvic fracture and 40 stitches.

Where did she get the strength to recover from?From those close to me, who taught me to receive.

One is used to giving and sometimes one does not allow oneself to receive so much...

But when you're this vulnerable, you have no choice.

I think my recovery was a beautiful experience, because it made me realize that plans change for a reason.

Because what I really wanted to do was not there on the show.

My destiny was greater than that accident. Because, despite not reaching television, a record company did take an interest in you and you began a successful career, of fame.

Are you used to being famous? That topic is a bit difficult for me.

Especially the theme of carpets and award shows, where you have to say the right thing and stay intact.

Then I come running home, take off my accessories and try to be a little more me.

But what I do have is my relationship with the fans.

It's amazing to be able to share stories, hug people you don't even know and have them tell you that you represent something in their lives.

They make my life.

There are people who have told me that my music has been vital to get out of a depression and that it changes your life, it makes me feel a greater respect for what I do, it gives responsibility to the words that I put in the songs .And I imagine that's why she's been completely honest with her fans.

In 2016, three years after divorcing her husband, she told the world that she had fallen in love with her trainer Jocelyn Troche.

How did that revelation change her life?She changed my relationship with absolutely everything, including my partner.

First of all, it changed my relationship with the fans, because I added a lot of credibility to my career.

The family of fans grew a lot, because there are artists who are not only attracted by their music, but also by their speech.

And, on a personal level,

we began to realize that everything we did had an impact.

We realized that we were part of a collective, that we had to embrace it and take a step forward with it.

Because being honest we gave the possibility to a boy, a girl, a

girl

to achieve it too, the possibility of dreaming of a cover, an album, a house, of being able to live in freedom.

And those revelations, to me, changed my life.
