00:00While I was there, I was sad and sad too.

00:04And I was like, no, I'm going to cry.

00:06Hey, what do you mean too?

00:07I was sad.

00:10Hey, I'm Ryan Castro.

00:11And I'm El Bendito.

00:16Ryan and Blessed.

00:17How are you? Welcome to Miami.

00:19I love that we are celebrating the Bendito Quero Tour today.

00:23How do you feel?

00:25Happy, really.

00:28We are thankful to God because this is going to happen.

00:32And it's going to be an incredible and unforgettable party for our fans.

00:36We have to start from the beginning.

00:39Where was the first time you met?

00:42We met in Medellin.

00:44Ryan came to Curacao.

00:46And I remember that I was at a farm.

00:50And Ryan told me to go to the studio.

00:53And I went to the studio.

00:56And someone already introduced you.

00:58No, I talked to him on social media.

01:00But we hadn't met yet.

01:02And we met at the studio.

01:04First, the flirt.

01:06First, we fell in love on Instagram.

01:08The two of us.

01:10First, we talked on Instagram.

01:12And he told me to go to the studio.

01:14And I was like, hey, let's go.

01:16I went to the studio.

01:18And we listened to a couple of songs.

01:20And that's when the first song came out.

01:22And I was sad.

01:24I was sad too.

01:26And he was like, me too.

01:28I was sad.

01:34So we recorded the song and met.

01:36And we've been together for 6 years.

01:40How did it happen?

01:42Because I know that men are a little different from women.

01:44But if you're sad,

01:46you're meeting someone, obviously,

01:48where the two of them are opening their hearts.

01:50Did you tell each other what was going on?

01:52Of course.

01:54You know what was nice?

01:56I feel like that was the success of the song.

01:58Because it was a song with a lot of respect.

02:02And the energy was like,

02:04I had a berry,

02:06the chorus and everything.

02:08And I was like,

02:10I have to kill it too.

02:12But neither of us were famous.

02:14The thing was that I was sad before.

02:16And I made the song.

02:18And I was sad at the studio.

02:20And then he told me,

02:22let's make a sad song.

02:24I already have it.

02:26I already went through that sadness.

02:30So we got together.

02:32But the success of the song

02:34was something very different

02:36from what was playing.

02:38Because it was on the street,

02:40reggaeton, reggaeton, reggaeton.

02:42And we came with Lejanía,

02:44which is a very sad and romantic song.

02:46And a slower rhythm.

02:48That contrast also made the song

02:50a success.

02:52And how do you fall now,

02:54obviously a couple of years later,

02:56where do you decide to do this tour together?

02:58As we talked,

03:00Lejanía and I were more like,

03:02let's do a tour together in the United States.

03:04Let's do it.

03:06Because we have very good communication.

03:08So when it was raised,

03:10it was taken to the table,

03:12we gave it.

03:14And that's how it was.

03:16Our thing has always been more

03:18him and me.

03:20He told me,

03:22let's do it.

03:24Let's see if I like it.

03:26Let's do this thing.

03:28I got to the show.

03:30Because we both came out of the same thing.

03:32And we are friends,

03:34we have common friends,

03:36people in common.

03:38So that makes everything easier to do.

03:40And how difficult is that part

03:42of the creative process together?

03:44How have you been able to

03:46get involved enough?

03:48No, the creative process,

03:50I think for us,

03:52it's the easiest thing to do.

03:54Because whenever we see each other in the studio,

03:56we have very good chemistry with the producers

03:58who work with us,

04:00with the people who are also going to contribute

04:02their ideas in the studio.

04:04In the creative part, we flow very naturally.

04:06In the business too,

04:08because the people who are there,

04:10they are people who we love

04:12and who work with us.

04:14And very professional people too.

04:16That's why these things happen,

04:18because we always flow very naturally.

04:20And if you could tell the fans

04:22what they have to bring to a concert

04:24from Ryan and Red?

04:26They have to bring incredible energy.

04:28Obviously they have to bring

04:30blue clothes, red clothes.

04:32Comfortable clothes.

04:34To dance.

04:36From Ryan.

04:38There are a lot of things they have to do.

04:40Take advantage of the blue and red.

04:42If they want to take off their blue hair,

04:44they have to go.

04:46But no, go with all the energy

04:48and objects.

04:50Tell them to go crazy.

04:52Tell them to see what I put on to go to the concert.

04:54Go crazy.

04:56Sit comfortably.

04:58Go comfortable.

05:00Go in flip flops.

05:02And the signs?

05:04What do you call them?

05:06The banners.

05:08Of course, the banners.

05:10The little flag.

05:12All that also goes.

05:14Here you can also buy the tickets.

05:16In this video.
