Hi there!  Okay I think this is one of my favorites blogs from all, because I really love music and without it this lockdown would be a nightmare (even more haha). But also this is one of my hardest choices, because I listen many genres and artists, and I've never been able to answer who is my favorite one. So I´m just gonna talk about one from many that I love and never get tired of.  I'm gonna talk about Residente.
