In a recent interview with Billboard, Ozuna discussed how he managed to snag features from the likes of Akon and Cardi B. “It was actually easy to do. It’s easy to work with someone who shares your same work ethic, who likes to create like you do,” he said. “When [me and Akon] got together, we did four songs: There’s one for his album and two for the future. He sang in English, he sang in Spanish, I sang in English. He doesn’t speak it perfectly, just as I don’t speak perfect English, but we understand each other.”
As far as pressure goes, Ozuna, who won the Best Artist at the 2017 Latino Billboard Awards, told the publication that the trick was staying focused on the music. “It wasn’t about doing something bigger or better. I don’t like to proclaim things,” he explained. “But people ask for a lot of music; it’s different from what it was. I study this genre, and it’s like the university for me. Now, artists grow weekly, there’s new sounds, new rhythms, new technology, new people, and you have to evolve.”
