The Latin Grammys Are Not a Latin Music Celebration
I think I have found interest in award ceremonies once again. I had lost interest in them since the internet makes it possible for us to curate what we want to see. Rarely did any artist I like make it to red carpet events. But given the fury Bad Bunny caused in the 2026 Grammy Award ceremony, I became interested in the ins and outs of these award ceremonies once again.

Bio
I was born and raised in New York City and lived there until 2018, when I moved to Medellín. Both my parents are Colombian, so I’ve always existed between two cultures—that mix shaped how I see and interact with the world.
I started Colombian Jukebox in 2021 as a music project, but it’s grown with me. Now it’s a space where I write and talk about the things that make me stop, think, or raise an eyebrow. I also have a playlist that I like to update every once in a while.
My main job — and what actually pays the bills — is leading cultural walks in the city’s creative district. I do them in New York City too. I enjoy them because I’m naturally curious, and I like seeing what other people are curious about too. I also love telling stories and sharing what I’ve learned along the way.
Thank you for stopping by!
