Honored in Los Angeles
Earlier this week, Natalia Jiménez was honored by the City of Los Angeles with an Official Proclamation presented by District 14 Councilvmember Ysabel Jurado. The tribute took place at City Hall as part of the Fiesta Broadway celebrations, where the Spanish singer-songwriter was also named the 2025 Queen of Fiesta Broadway—she will also headline this year’s event.
“It means so much to me because of my strong ties to Mexico and the entire Latino community,” she said in a press statement. “I’ve lived many years in both Mexico and the United States, and I understand what it means to migrate and seek new opportunities. I’m proud to be part of such a united community, especially in challenging times. Thank you for inviting me, for this recognition, and for allowing me to celebrate our culture and language with all of you.”
Making History on Tour
In other L.A.-related news, Rauw Alejandro made history at the Intuit Dome as the first Latin artist to perform three consecutive sold out concerts. During his Cali shows—part of his Cosa Nuestra world tour—the Puerto Rican artist invited surprise guests Marconi Impara and Yan Block to perform “Espresso Martini” from his album Cosa Nuestra.
Produced by Live Nation, the Broadway-inspired set — a nod to Rauw’s new musical era that symbolizes elegance, maturity and glamour —includes a live band in tow. The Cosa Nuestra stint wraps May 31 in Miami. The “Todo de Ti” hitmaker will perform a four-day sold-out residency from June 5 to 8 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot in San Juan before taking the tour to Europe.

Heartfelt Bad Bunny Cover
Laura Pausini has paid a heartfelt tribute to Bad Bunny by releasing her own version of his song “Turista,” part of his chart-topping album Debí Tirar Más Fotos. Produced and arranged alongside her husband and musician, Paolo Carta, Pausini delivers a melancholic cover backed by weeping piano melodies and her potent vocals. “I listened to ‘Turista’ and instantly fell in love with it…so I sang it,” the Italian-born, Spanish-singing artist expressed on Instagram. “Some songs don’t need to be part of a new album or promoted as a single. When a song touches your heart, it’s good in any style, at any time. Bravo Bad Bunny.” Listen to the track below.
Perreo: A Revolution
On the heels of dropping her ultra-personal, ultra-vulnerable, and ultra-experimental album Latinaje, Cazzu presents her first-ever book, Perreo: Una Revolución. “This book tells, vindicates, and denies the urban music industry specifically, about life as a woman in music or in any field. But above all, it aims to be a contribution to continue building equality,” she wrote on Instagram. “I dedicate it to the women who love reggaeton, to those who hate it, to those who want to sing, compose, or produce, to my female colleagues who barely made it and continue to resist […] I also dedicate this to my male colleagues and the artists who inspired me,” she adds, admitting that thoughts of writing her own novel began four years ago. The book is available in all bookstores, as an ebook, and an audiobook (narrated by Cazzu).
