GALE plays Fishing for Answers with Billboard backstage at Billboard’s Latin Music Week 2023.
GALE
Hello I’m GALE and here I am, Fishing for Answers with Billboard.
GALE
Let’s see… do you prefer recording or touring?
GALE
Oh, that’s a tough one. I love the energy I feel in the studio, creating, writing a song. It’s like magic, but I feel like nothing compares to being on stage. Singing your songs and connecting with the audience in that way. It’s like kind of electricity. So a bit of both, being on stage more.
GALE
Who is your style icon and why?
GALE
Uhhh…you know I don’t have a specific person, but I’m really inspired by ’90s fashion, I love that ’90s vibe, everything.
GALE
I could stay here until tomorrow.
GALE
Who would you love to collaborate with on your next album?
GALE
Oh I don’t know. Not a specific person, but wow. I just released my first album a few months ago. I’m still in that mindset. Although I’ve started working on new music, I’m just too excited. Well some collaborations I’d love…to name a few Pol Granch, Bruses, Manuel Turizo, Shakira eventually I’d love that. Yes.
GALE
Have you met someone who left you starstruck? Who was it?
GALE
Well, you see…I’ve thought about this a lot because I started composing with other artists who I’ve had the opportunity to write with artists I admire, a lot like…Christina Aguilera and Shakira, who I grew up listening to. Imitating, well, everything. But starstruck? No it hasn’t happened to me. Daddy Yankee. Maybe with him the starstruck feeling could happen, I’ll get back to you.
