translated from Spanish: L-Ghent’s exclusive backstage at the Claro Sessions: “The Argentine movement can’t be denied”

It’s L-Ghent weekend and Filo.News knows it: we present you this exclusive backstage of its debut in the Claro Sessions, the cycle of virtual shows of Claro Streaming.” It cost, but I got what I wanted a while ago,” he confessed about his present. “I still have my feet on the ground. We’re going for everything, because I’m used to losing.” Accompanied by his manager Maxi El Brother and his colleague Perro Primo, another reference of the cumbia 420, Elián set out to give, for the first time, a concert for a virtual but equally loyal audience.
This year, L-Ghent capitalized on the meteoric takeoff that began with its “L-Ghent RKT” and materialized with the music session with Bizarrap. The last time he was on tour in Mexico and Spain, and while the sister country of Uruguay awaits him, he talks to Filo.News.” I’m not oriented to be the best musician or the most stuck artist. I’m a person who makes music -be honest- I’m more willing to represent and stand up for maybe a mass of people who don’t pay attention to it like my neighborhood can be and I make music.” On the possibility of releasing an album, he says: “Because of how I am and how I organize myself, I think I’m going to keep doing songs and in a moment I’m going to have an album.” Claiming to have “put more responsibility” into his career, Elian receives his collaboration with Pablito Lescano as a symbol of respect: “If I earned Pablito’s respect, it’s a success. I don’t know how they’ll value it from the outside but on my part I value it.”

He adds: “I knew there was going to be discord, type ‘but Pablito is cumbia villera and this kind of looks like reggaeton’ but at the end of the day he adapted well. It happens that the cumbia villera are used to the reggaeton they hear in Argentina having the Puerto Rican dialogue. What I did is I talk as I speak in the neighborhood. The Argentine movement cannot be denied.” His influence on young people in undeniable: from his alphabet to the fact that he recorded the hit that made him known with the netbook of The Connect Equality and a mic of $ 1,000, what he does and says L-Ghent penetrates deep into the masses: “I told it like that no more because it was the reality but I saw that several felt identified. Maybe you see a reference: ‘If he did it that way I can too.’ I notice that emotion. It’s the one that goes, I had it too.” That one has had a hard time is not that it is piola. One is used to the ‘Look I fell in cana’, but it does not pass piola in those moments. To the kids, the kids who are at this age that I am also, what I sing is not for them to adapt. I correct myself from the bad things, although it served me to have passed them. Now I’m clear about things and I know where not to fall. I don’t want to lose the things that are achieved.”
