- When you do hit that
[high pitched singing]
Okay, she's here, you know?
- What?
- That was dope.
- Did this really just happen?
- So vibey.
- Go on, Becky.
- Madre mia!
- Yo, what's up, Glamour?
I'm Becky G, and you sang my song.
[Mayores by Becky G playing]
[woman covering "Mayores"]
[singing in Spanish]
- Okay, harmonies.
Any time I hear my songs played
in like a different style
or simply like instead of it being
like a track but it's just acoustic,
I love it, it gives the song
a completely different feel.
But yeah, the guitar skills, I see you.
The overall vibe just made me really happy.
Her energy was also really happy,
she has a very contagious smile, which I love.
[Woman covering Mayores]
- Oh my god! [laughing]
- Yes, hair!
- She loves my hair, oh my god!
- Janisa, that was so dope.
I loved the guitar vibes.
Amazing in that video, and your hair in the wind,
you better work it, girl.
- Oh my god!
What?
First of all, I'm crying. [laughing]
Becky G said my name
and saw my face singing her song,
that is insane.
And she likes my hair, oh my gosh! [laughing]
I'm literally shaking.
I've just loved her music for so long
and that cover in particular
is so special to me.
I mean, I just never thought that I would hear from her.
It really means a lot
because also with covers,
you never know how the singers feel
if you do the song justice,
that's what's really flattering
that she likes it and points out the harmonies
and the guitar fills,
I worked really hard on my cover
so this means so much.
Becky, I love you so much
and your music, thank you so much
for your kind words.
And I'm glad that you love my hair,
I love yours too. [laughing]
And you're the best.
Woo, okay, gotta breathe.
All right, cool.
[Sin Pijama by Becky G playing]
[Woman singing Sin Pijama]
- Okay.
Yes, vibes, yes, soul.
Yes to all of that.
Oh wow, I was not expecting that at all.
Yeah, you get like the ambience with the candles
and the little lights and stuff
and then the guitar and then she came in
with like all these like layered vocals
and then all those runs?
That's like a completely different genre, I feel
than what the song originally,
like the song is a reggaeton song.
It's like a full urban reggaeton record.
That's what I listen to on a daily basis
when I'm at home and I'm hanging out by myself,
and I'm cooking.
It's totally usually like that kind of
style of music so thank you for that.
That was awesome.
[Woman covering Sin Pijama] [laughing]
- Okay. Yes, vibes. [Woman laughing]
Yes, soul.
When you take it and you make it your own,
like that to me is like true artistry
at its finest and wow.
That was beautiful.
Davina, increible.
I loved it.
- Oh my god, thank you.
I'm floored to be honest,
like I didn't know she was gonna be into it that much.
That's amazing, like the fact
that she commented on the artistry
'cause that's what I go for
is to like change it into a genre
that people wouldn't expect
so I love that she recognized that
and her reaction was everything. [laughing]
That was awesome. [laughing]
To hear directly from her
that I did the song justice is incredible
because you know, she was the one
in the studio during the whole process
and she's the artist on the song
who's representing it and singing it
in different countries.
Thank you for liking my rendition of the song,
I love the song.
It's such a beautiful experience
to be able to do that as artists
and to bounce off each other,
feed off each other, to be able to create
so much beauty with what we have, you know.
And I'm so happy and grateful. [laughing]
[Sola by Becky G playing]
[Man covering Sola]
♪ I don't know what I'm doing ♪
- Okay.
♪ With you, it's better to be - ♪
This song, Sola, is in Spanish
so when I heard him singing in English,
it took me like my brain had to kind of like recalibrate
'cause I was like, wait what song is this?
♪ Nobody to let me let me down ♪
This is Sola in English,
that is so creative, I love that.
I love that because music is a universal language
and everyone can speak it,
everyone can participate and everyone is welcome
and I love that about what I do
but like hearing a song that you created
and then hearing it in a different language,
that's just like, that's just awesome.
It took me by surprise.
The energy of it kind of gave me this R&B vibe.
I felt like I was watching an Usher music video.
He was like, in his feels, and at the piano
doing his thing.
[Man covering Solo]
- Gees.
- I also really appreciated all his backgrounds.
All those stacked vocals,
I'm such a freak for those things,
I love it so much.
- Crazy!
- Colz, what up?
First up, you're so dope.
Second, thank you so much
for bringing a whole new vibe
to a song that I personally love so so much.
- Ay. [laughing]
Go on, Becky. [laughing]
That truly was like,
that caught me off guard, man.
She literally said how I felt
when I was doing it with the whole approach,
I approached it like an R&B vibe,
and it's funny she mentioned the backing vocals
'cause that's my thing.
To hear her saying that I re-created it
but made it differently to her
but still kept the essence of it,
that's like amazing, man,
so I'm super grateful.
And she said that music is a universal language,
yeah, I totally agree.
We do music to connect.
And it's just amazing that [laughing]
that she watched it, like, that's crazy.
[They Ain't Ready by Becky G playing]
[Man covering They Ain't Ready]
- Ooh!
Okay, sexy guitar player.
All right.
Okay, that's what I'm trying to do with my live shows.
I'm trying to bring that energy.
That was so dope.
That was dope.
When a song is originally created,
there's an intention behind it,
a story behind it, a overall feel and style.
When someone kind of re-imagines that,
it adds so many other different layers.
With my live shows, I'm always trying to find ways
to bring those elements that aren't on the original songs
so like he kinda just did that,
like he totally just inspired me,
like I'm about to call up my home band
and be like, "yo, what's up,
we gotta put this song in the set, let's do it".
[laughing]
[Man covering They Ain't Ready]
The guitar itself was playing a whole new melody
which is really nice.
Going back to bringing these other little layers,
it's like ear candy.
That's what we hear in soulful, blues
type of jazzy types of music,
is those kind of moments
where even the instruments themselves
have this time to sing on their own a little bit
and bring these other elements of melody
to a song and he did just that.
[Man covering They Aint Ready]
Okay, okay.
Okay, sexy guitar player.
All right, I felt that. [Chris laughing]
Chris, you keep playing that guitar, man.
Just keep jamming out
and if you wanna jam out to more of my music
then I would be more than beyond happy [laughing]
to listen to it, 'cause it's so good,
that was so good.
- Aw, that was awesome, man.
It's not really something that happens
you know everyday, you know?
But I feel accomplished, is the word, I guess.
And slightly blessed, you know?
How often is it in the average person's life
where somebody super famous
comments on your work?
You know, it's no different than her
coming up to my house, tapping on my door
and saying, "you know what Chris?
I've just seen your video,
blah blah blah blah blah",
you know, I'd still be sat there absolutely gobsmacked,
shaking, like did this really just happen, you know?
That's really, really cool.
Thank you so much for looking at my video,
I really appreciate it, I'm glad you liked it.
Thanks for watching it
and if you come to Spain, I'll go to one of your shows.
[laughing] Thank you so much.

[Woman covering Next to You]
♪ I should've been there right next to you ♪
♪ Oh, oh, oh ♪
♪ I should've been there right next to you ♪
♪ Hey ♪
- Mm.
That song is such a pop DJ emotional record
and I love that when you hear a song like that
stripped down, with such a, just like a simple,
heartfelt vocal, that still holds the same power,
which is really nice to hear.
I'm such a sucker for guitars, period.
I guess any instrument, like to sing and play
at the same time's actually really hard
for me personally, like I grew up,
I taught myself how to play the guitar
and it's still something that I struggle with to this day.
[laughing]
Maybe it's because I don't practice often enough.
It's for sure that, by the way.
I know a lot of people who can sing
and play guitar at the same time.
♪ I should've been there right next to you ♪
Any time someone sings a song
that has lyrics that carry a lot of weight
like Next to You, just how you emote that
is really important.
You don't have to scream a song just because it's emotional,
you don't have to belt a song just because it's emotional.
Sometimes the most intimate moments
are the moments that are more quiet
and more soft and then when you do hit that
[high pitched singing]
like that was like, okay, she's here, you know?
Like it gives you that rollercoaster of emotions I guess
that a song like that is really intended for.
Yeah, no, that was really nice, Lasha,
that was really, really, really great.
Thank you for that.
♪ Oh, oh, oh ♪
♪ I should've been there right next to you ♪
[speaking in Spanish]
- Oh my god.
[speaking in Spanish]
[laughing]
- That was awesome.
- Bueno. [laughing]
Wow, I wasn't expecting that.
I'm like shaking.
[speaking in Spanish]
[laughing]
[speaking in Spanish]
[Muchacha by Becky G playing]
[Woman covering Muchacha]
- Yes, fire!
She remade the video.
Fire!
So vibey!
I loved just the overall energy, like
[speaking in Spanish]
like it has so much energy,
like it's the kinda song that when you hear it
you can't help but want to dance.
In the music video, we did a very cool storyline
type of music video but for her to bring
all of those different elements like the outfit,
the cars, the motorcycle,
it brought that same energy, it was really nice.
[Woman covering Muchacha playing]
Yes, fire!
Ayla...
[speaking in Spanish]
That was great to watch.
- Madre mia. [laughing]
[speaking in Spanish]
[laughing]
[speaking in Spanish]
[Shower by Becky G playing]
[Woman covering Shower on piano]
- Ay!
I am so jealous of her piano skills
because wow.
That was mesmerizing.
I was just watching her fingers
just do the damn thing, that was crazy.
That's such an interesting song for me
'cause I was like so so young
when that song was released.
Hearing it again, being played with someone else's talent
just takes you out of the song for a second
and instead of being the artist who sings the song
you just become a fan of the song,
which is really special, you know,
you don't get the opportunity
to experience that very often.
Shower's a straight up pop record.
Shower is a pop jam.
I think what was really nice
about hearing it with piano
is it kind of, it gave it this emotional layer
'cause the melody of the song
is actually very grand.
It's very uplifting, like,
♪ You light me up inside ♪
♪ Like the fourth of July ♪
Like you literally see it in your head
and it's just, I guess in a sense,
kind of dramatic.
It's kinda nice that the piano
gave it that layer that it didn't have before.
Muri, thank you so much
for that rendition of Shower.
That was soul feeding, it fed my soul. [laughing]
As an artist, when you get to hear your own songs
being enjoyed and played by other incredible artists,
there's no greater feeling.
I feel like what I love the most
about what I do is the connection.
Going back to what I was saying about music
being such a universal language
that unites us all and that is meant for everyone
to enjoy and participate in,
it's just so cool.
And shout out to everyone,
even the ones that are not in this video
that are doing covers,
who are putting themselves out there,
I really applaud you guys.
Don't ever give up
because the truth is that like even for me
that's how my life changed.
I got discovered off of YouTube,
putting covers of songs that I really loved
by artists that I really admired.
My life changed because of that
and don't get me wrong,
even after you get the opportunity,
there's still a lot of hard work
that follows up after it,
but if there's any example
of it is possible, I'm telling you myself.
Don't give up on yourself.
Always believe in yourself
and yeah, keep up the good work
because what I just saw was pretty incredible.
Thank you so much to my familia at Glamour
and of course to all of the incredible artists
who covered my songs, until next time, besitos, ciao.
