“My parents and grandparents listened to bacheta heavy, the true bachat...” — Prince Royce Quote

“My parents and grandparents listened to bacheta heavy, the true bachata from back in the day - Juan Luis Guerra, Anthony Santos. I liked the genre, but I remember thinking, 'OK, enough of this.' I would sing Usher's 'U Remind Me' to the girls in school.”

“I always sang in English. It's just that nobody heard me.”

“I would definitely love to work with somebody like Jay Z or Rihanna.”

“So much good music has been looked over because of preconceived notions of genre.”

“For a writer, and particularly a writer of my genre, which is the fantastical, I think that it's to my advantage to feel remote from and disconnected from the world of deal making.”

“The Western genre is certainly something with which I'm familiar.”
