My Conga people [fans] will find me anywhere I go.
I'm happy and I have a great life.
[I would like to be] one of [the first pop singers to perform in a free Cuba]. I know the list is huge. And it would be hard to pull off -- I'd have a lump as big as a tostone [fried green plantain] in my throat. But oh my God, what a dream -- it would be the height of my personal and professional career.
There's some people that are 24 hours with the baby and it doesn't make a difference. They could be anywhere.
