(Best Alternative Song and Best Urban Fusion Performance) MEJOR CANCIÓN ALTERNATIVA y MEJOR FUSIÓN/INTERPRETACIÓN URBANA But last Thursday he performed his own Grammy-winning song Telefonía.Ģ. So his song was performed by Carlos Santana and Antonio Banderas. Having won the 2005 Oscar for Best Original Song for al otro lado del río from the Motorcycle Diaries soundtrack, he wasn’t allowed to play it himself at the ceremony because he wasn’t well known enough and the Academy thought they would lose ratings. Turns out Uruguay’s Jorge Drexler is not just a singer and song-writer, he’s also an actor and doctor – yes medico. (Song of the year and record of the year)

Obviously with total respect to all the artists who have been legends and will be legends always, but it’s time to create new legends, new motivations. Value the new blood, the young blood that is coming because we are the future of music. “Let’s not kill the dreams of the new producers that are coming (up), the new songwriters that are coming up. Que la gente en la calle quiera ser como nosotros porque también somos un ejemplo de vida. Obviamente con todo el respeto a todos los artistas que han sido leyendas y serán leyendas por siempre, pero es hora de crear nuevas leyendas, nuevas motivaciones. Valoren la nueva sangre, la sangre nueva que viene porque somos el futuro de la música. – No matemos los sueños de los nuevos productores que vienen, de los nuevos compositores que vienen. “To everyone who is representing this genre that we have been fighting for so much, that at times has been a little discriminated (against), but here we continue fighting and showing that there are people with a lot of talent, that reggaeton has saved lives, that reggaeton has motivated people to leave the streets and focus on having better dreams, that are worth dreaming.” – A todos los que están representando este género que hemos luchado tanto, que a veces ha sido un poco discriminado, pero aquí seguimos luchando y demostrando que hay gente con mucho talento, que el reggaetón ha salvado vidas, que el reggaetón ha motivado que la gente deje las calles y se enfoque en tener sueños más bonitos, que vale la pena soñar. J Balvin addressed it directly in his discurso after winning Best Urban Album (his 1 win of 9 total nominations).
