Mexico. Natti Natasha is proud of her “two children”. The Dominican singer released the song “Las nenas” with Farina, Cazzu and La Duraca, while she is about to become the mother of her first child.
“I also want to work harder to break that stigma that pregnant women in entertainment can’t,” Natti told Natasha in an interview with The Associated Press. “None of this should happen.”
For the singer, who is waiting for the birth of her baby in May, “Las nenas” has a message of female unity very suitable for March, the month of women’s history.
“This first collaboration of four urban women, united, had never been seen before and being able to carry that flag to make this happen, I feel it fills me a lot,” she said.
“There is a very nice (nice) message in the back and very important and that we are all one. I feel that this message needs to be repeated and said in such a way that it also becomes normal and not that I see it strange that four girls have finally come together on a subject “, he added.
The song is about perreo and “jangueo” (party), and his video has a home atmosphere where many girls dance with minors. The photos show that the collaborators had a lot of fun during the filming in Miami, with laughs that seem authentic, almost taken by a hidden camera. Cazzu demonstrates his skills by sitting on his hands in a bunny suit.
The four started working on the song remotely at the end of last year. Farina sent his contribution from Colombia, Cazu from Argentina and La Duraca from Puerto Rico. But they managed to produce a track that feels fluid and connected.
“Everyone had their own space to express themselves as they wanted,” said Natti Natasha. “When I managed to meet everyone, it felt like that, I felt like I was at a real party, that’s how the video was.”
The 34-year-old singer was very sincere about the difficulties she went through to get pregnant and even about the depression she felt when she couldn’t. She feels that by sharing her experience, she can help other women in the same situation.
“I searched the internet for so much information,” he said. “Because they don’t give you the information right away, I’m just telling you ‘you can’t’ and you feel very alone.” “I felt it was very important for me to share my story with other women who are still going through this because thank God at the end of the day it wasn’t so bad, it went well and I was given the opportunity.”
After pregnancy, she is not seen changing her career path. “They will continue to listen to Natti Natasha in the same way, because I have never been afraid,” he said.
As a representative of a genre that faces criticism from people who do not reconcile the idea that women singers talk about perreo or buttocks (as in “Las nenas”) and at the same time seeks to empower women, she ventured to share how she imagine your baby’s education.
“I want to teach you that whether you are a girl or a boy, you have a more open mind,” he said. “Definitely, let (the kids) decide if they like reggaeton or not.”
As the executive producer of the popular YouTube series “Bravas”, she said that there is no release date for a second season, but that it is supported by people’s response.
The fictional series, also focused on women in music, follows a singer, a DJ and another friend who acts as a representative on the urban scene in Puerto Rico. The first episode alone garnered 4.9 million views.
For now, Natti Natasha wants to make another presentation “with my belly” and record it to have more memories about her sweet expectation.
At the Lo Nuestro Awards, where she announced her pregnancy by posing in a two-piece white dress that left her belly exposed, she received the Tropical Song of the Year award for her collaboration with Romeo Santos “The Best Version of Me” and sung with Prince Royce “Before Sunrise.”
“It was such a magical day, so beautiful, so I liked it,” he said.
