00:00What does this shirt say? What does this shirt say? I'm trying to read.
00:04Billboard is the best.
00:05That's it!
00:06Billboard is the best.
00:08Billboard is the best.
00:11Oscar Maydon, what brings you the awards?
00:14Memories, nominations, a presentation.
00:197 nominations.
00:227?
00:237, that's a lot.
00:24What are those 7?
00:25It's nice, it's nice that they celebrate it that way, the awards.
00:30To be among big people, it feels nice.
00:33But I already won, I already won.
00:35The awards, the streets give it to me.
00:38My biggest award is the fans.
00:40To have a concert, to have a tour.
00:42That, for me, are the awards.
00:44What do you think has been the most connected?
00:47How does people connect with Oscar Maydon?
00:50Well, my music.
00:51Simply, I think my music, more than my person,
00:53the music, I feel that it's the one that has reached them.
00:56Because I hardly know how to be recording,
00:59and that, I struggle a lot with that.
01:01But I think my music is what makes people connect with me.
01:05And right now, the new album is coming,
01:072025 album, of 4 albums that I'm going to release this year,
01:10if you want.
01:11Ah, and is it coming out of spite?
01:13Of course not, of course not.
01:14I really am the owner of heartbreak.
01:17I'm always, always struggling.
01:19You're one of Ingrid's.
01:20I'm always struggling, they always play with me,
01:23always this, always the other.
01:25Oh no, Oscar, but you don't give up, please.
01:27No, well, I don't give up, but I have to.
01:30No, no, and look how far they've taken you in heartbreak.
01:33Really?
01:34Up to number 1 on Billboard, up to there.
01:36Yes, that's why, and that's why.
01:38No, really, that motivates me a lot, you know?
01:41It motivates me a lot to know, in the studio,
01:44what that person is doing,
01:46and I'm singing, I'm recording,
01:47and it shows a feeling, a match there.
01:50Before we let you go, Oscar,
01:52in fact, your wedding, number 1, with Fuerza Rígida,
01:55did you expect that song to reach the Hotline Songs for so many weeks?
01:59No, the truth is, I don't think I expected it so much.
02:02I always wanted a song with the intention of making it a hymn,
02:07I mean, that people make a match with them, yes, a hymn.
02:10So, but your wedding, I think it exceeded the limit,
02:14the expectation we had,
02:16and, well, I'm grateful to the people,
02:18to the people of Sony, to the people of Billboard,
02:20who were supporting us, in interviews,
02:22with the whole team, with the Fuerza Rígida team.
02:25I think they expect a lot more from us,
02:27from Rígida, from us.
02:28I think your wedding brought us together a lot,
02:30and right now we have one more estimate,
02:34and I think that will be reflected in the next songs, right?
02:38That Oscar Mayón's album is coming.
