As you may recall, Selena began singing at the age of nine, when her father saw her singing talent.

“I was part of all that production and so in those scenes they don’t take me into account, it shocks me. He was never a keyboard player and for them to teach him (to show him) in series, it bothered me and not … I got a little annoyed because, I mean, they all Los Dinos know, that I created that song of “Dance this Cumbia”. AB leaned over to me and said, “You know what, don’t forget that song, we’ll use it.” And then, “Baila esta Cumbia” was born there, so they didn’t give me the credit … “, he said for the Telemundo program” Suelta La Sopa “.

About his relationship with Selena Quintanilla’s father, the keyboardist stated that he has little communication with him and launched a short but strong sentence.

“We are not talking too much. I think he only talks when he needs something (laughs). AB knows … I’m here to tell the truth and I’m defending myself with my voice, because we all have a voice, “he said.

“I’m here to tell the truth and I’m defending myself with my voice,” added Joe, referring to Chris Pérez, Selena Quintanilla’s widower, with whom he has a close relationship and works with him on his solo music project. who will soon see the light.
