J Balvin remembered his beginnings in music with a reflection

The urban genre artist J Balvin shared a reflection through his Instagram account along with some photographs of the beginnings of his musical career, which began in Medellín, his hometown. The artist known for his revolutionary style expressed that his path to success was “hard.”

“I always had faith that I was going to achieve it without having any idea how to chart the path. Today I see myself and I congratulate myself “HOW HARD Jose DESERVED” and in this new stage I feel new so let’s see what the next dreams bring us,” said the Colombian.

Balvin, who has taken the music industry by storm worldwide, also sang in local clubs in the capital of Antioquia, where his catchy rhythms and captivating lyrics soon found a loyal audience. Thanks to his music, the Colombian has been on the most important stages, such as the Coachella festival; five-time Larin Grammy Award winner, two Billboard Music Award winners, among others.

However, after having success and luxuries due to the billions he has earned with his songs, currently the paisa indicated: “I am no longer impressed by money or fame, only by good people. BALVIN IS BALVIN.”

The path of José Álvaro Osorio Balvin, known artistically as J Balvin, was not without obstacles. Before achieving stardom, the Colombian singer had to face various challenges and work hard to become known. His efforts began to bear fruit when he published his first single Ella me captivado in 2009, which positioned him on Colombian radio lists. Later, in 2012, his album The Business solidified his reputation in the music scene.

“I know schools more than the Minister of Education. We visited all the schools in each city in Colombia, high, medium, low, very low stratum. The clubs were cool, but my story began in schools. It was funny because sometimes they would make a fuss about a guy that no one knew, but he sang reggaeton, and you already thought you were famous,” said the reggaeton singer in an interview for El Tiempo in 2021.

Collaborations with renowned artists and the release of songs that went viral have been key in the Colombian’s successful career. With a style that breaks the mold in the reggaeton industry, Balvin has achieved a distinctive seal that makes him one of the main exponents of the urban genre today.

Recently, the Paisa artist generated expectations among his followers after sharing videos and previews of what will be his new album. Although no concrete details have been provided about the album’s release date, Balvin’s strategy of using social networks to interact with his fans and provide news has sparked comments and reactions from his followers who are eager to learn about the new rhythms of the reggaeton icon.

Anticipation is growing for the possible release of the Colombian’s sixth studio album, although specific details of the content of the new album have not yet been revealed, it is expected to continue the sequence of his previous successes, as he himself revealed: “Here coming back to times like Energy while I enjoy making music Sin AFÁN. They identify themselves? Has it happened to you? Or what does it transmit to them? I love you FAMILY”, he wrote on his social networks.

To date, Balvin has five successful albums La familia (2013), Energía (2016), Vibras (2018), Colores (2020) and Jose (2021). Also worth highlighting is the collaborative project Oasis, made with Bad Bunny. With Infobae
