Maluma announces that he will perform in Medellín the “best concert” of his career

The Colombian singer Maluma announced this Thursday that he will perform in his native Medellín the “best concert” of his career as part of his “PAPI JUANCHO MALUMA WORLD TOUR” tour, which has already captivated the United States and Canada.

Under the motto “Medallo en el mapa”, the 27-year-old artist will be presented on April 30, 2022 at the Atanasio Girardot stadium, where he hopes to “be a prophet” in his hometown with the company of more than 40,000 spectators.

“This is the most important concert of my life. It is a gift for Medellín. I don’t care what I have to do, but it has to be the best show. “, said Maluma, in a press conference.

During the announcement, made in a restaurant in Medellín, capital of Antioquia (northwest), the interpreter of “Hawaii” said that he will bring his “essence” to the stage and admitted that singing at home “scares” him because his city is “demanding” .

But he is not intimidated by it and insists that “it will be the best show” of his career. “I feel like it’s a graduation concert. I have been studying for ten years now and I want to receive the diploma in Medellín, I cannot imagine it anywhere else ”, he claimed.

On stage, as he announced, the public will enjoy a show that synthesizes his entire career and confirmed that he will be accompanied by local guests to promote the talent of his city.

Juan Luis Londoño, artistically known as Maluma, indicated that the covid-19 pandemic, “Although it sounds a little strange”, it was for him “a blessing” because he could “Stop and breathe.”

He said that this period of pause “He made Juan Luis stronger and more mature.” “I became a better human being”added

However, he warned that this evolution will not take him away from his essence, a clarification that linked to the situation of his compatriot J Balvin, who recently apologized after the criticism of machismo and racism raised by the video clip of “Perra.”

“I’m not going to stop making the music I like”Maluma remarked.

“Music is the only means of expression that I have, and if I have to do the version of ‘Cuatro Babys’ again, but ‘Ocho Babys’, I’m going to do it. Sorry, but it’s my music and what I like to do. It is my essence and I cannot change it “declared the singer of the hit “Sobrio”, who has also been accused of making macho lyrics.

Despite this, he announced that “very different” music is coming, as he wants to continue “Experimenting on the side of pop”, something “more romantic”.

He also wants to continue exploring his facets as a music producer and actor after enjoying his participation in the romantic comedy “Marry Me” with Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, which will be released next year.

“I had very strong nerves in my first scene, but Owen congratulated me and said that I had done my job well”, Maluma said.
