Balvin made history in 2018 by becoming the first Latin American artist to perform on Coachella’s main stage. He joined Beyoncé as a surprise guest to perform a remix of the hit song “Mi Gente” and then returned the following year for a solo performance. This time around, he outshined headliner Doja Cat with an intricate production featuring an extraterrestrial theme and a special appearance by Will Smith reviving the Men In Black theme song. Balvin is known for his commitment to constantly improving his performances, spending six months preparing for Coachella to ensure he delivered his best.
Despite making it look effortless, Balvin revealed that a lot of hard work goes into his performances. He always aims to surpass his previous work and raise the bar even higher. His dedication to his craft will be on display as he takes his Que Bueno Volver a Verte (Good to See You Again) world tour to Australia in September, following his successful shows at Splendour In The Grass in 2023. Balvin expressed his love for Australia and the warm reception he received from fans.
After taking a break, Balvin is back in the spotlight with his latest album release, “JOSE,” in 2021. He also welcomed his first child with his wife, Valentina Ferrer, the same year. Inspired by his wife, Balvin crafted the feminist anthem “Triple S,” celebrating women’s empowerment. He emphasized his admiration for women and the positive impact of female empowerment in society.
Balvin opened up about the challenges of touring as a new father, admitting that he experiences homesickness while on the road. He longs for the simple pleasures of being at home with his family, like sitting on his favorite couch, watching movies with his son, and waking up to his son’s smile. Despite the difficulties of being away from home, Balvin remains grateful for the opportunity to share his music with fans around the world.
