Walls radiates moonlight

Walls rose to fame as a freestyler at the age of 16, when he was crowned champion in the regional final of the Redbull Batalla de los Gallos.

But that is history and now he begins a new stage as an artist within pop rock, a decision that, beyond being influenced by the toxic environment in which he was immersed, his impulse was to be a singer and fulfill the dream of playing. music similar to that of El Canto del Loco and Leiva, not that of idols like 50 Cent and Eminem.

I always told people that it was terrible (the atmosphere in freestyle), that everything was bad, but the truth was it wasn’t that big of a deal, I just didn’t feel like doing it anymore and that’s it. But I was making music before freestyle and I liked it, but never more than music, so I was clear that that was what I wanted to do.

So I made the most of my freestyle moment and left,” said Ginés Paredes Giménez, the singer’s real name, in an interview with Excelsior.

The road has not been easy, because it is no secret that criticism has rained down on the Spaniard for “abandoning” the genre. However, he says that it does not affect him, because in this new stage the basis remains the same: He does what he wants. he likes it.

It’s just that I do things for me and what I want, and it has also been a very organic and natural change. I didn’t go from freestyle to this, but I started making songs and everything has always been to be true to myself and be happy with what I do.

Although it is true that when a person stops me on the street or comes to a concert and tells me that they follow me from freestyle, I thank them with all my heart, because I understand the fan and that it is a drastic change. Also the most normal thing in the world is for them to stop following me, because they have other tastes and I respect that,” said the 23-year-old interpreter.

Walls was present at the concert that his countrymen from Viva Sweden gave on Tuesday night at the Lunario of the National Auditorium, just a day in which Blink-182 packed the Palacio delos Deportes and Royal Blood the West Pavilion.

With social networks and platforms we are educating ourselves more about diversity of genres and other things, so if before, if you were a punk and a rocker, you were only attached to those genres, but now you can like everything a little more and it has helped people understand it,” he added.

Now the step has been taken and he seals it with his new material Luna 18in which through 12 songs he captured everything he has to offer as an artist, with himself being the guiding thread of the story.

When it comes to composing, I think that freestyle has not helped me, because the part of my brain that I used for that is different, there were three lines to execute a fourth and win and this is something else, now it is writing little by little, What it did help me with was with rhymes, now the truth is that I have forgotten how to do it. What did help me and what I always use is the audacity on stage, the way I move, the self-confidence, that’s what it has given me.

Now, with composition, I prefer to write as it flows and know that if I am in the middle of a verse and the second one doesn’t come out, nothing happens, I wait for it to come out, I go calmly, because in improvisation if it doesn’t come out the rhyme you have to say whatever or you’re out, so that’s been different,” he explained.

In 2022, Walls debuted his album The kids from the parkalso available in streaming with 10 songs and collaborations.
