MIAMI (21 DE OCTUBRE DE 2020) — La Academia Latina de la Grabación^® anunció hoy las Leading Ladies of Entertainment de 2020 —una distinción que forma parte de las celebraciones de la semana del Latin GRAMMY— que otorga reconocimiento al trabajo de mujeres profesionales dentro del sector de las artes y entretenimiento cuya consciencia social, así como sus importantes aportes, han inspirado a la siguiente generación de mujeres líderes. Debido a los desafíos impuestos por la pandemia del COVID-19, las homenajeadas de este año serán reconocidas mediante una celebración virtual el 17 de noviembre.

Las homenajeadas de Leading Ladies of Entertainment de 2020 son:

• Gloria "Goyo" Martínez, cantante, productora y cofundadora de ChocQuibTown
• Angela N. Martinez, Esq., abogada de entretenimiento

Erika Ender, cantautora, actriz, ganadora de dos Latin GRAMMYs y nominada al GRAMMY —y una de las homenajeadas de Leading Ladies of Entertainment en 2017 — será la conductora del evento.

"Como cada año, quedo asombrado por el grupo seleccionado para recibir el reconocimiento de Leading Ladies of Entertainment, y me siento orgulloso de celebrar y honrar líderes tan destacadas que han forjado el camino para tantas personas", dijo Gabriel Abaroa Jr., presidente/CEO de La Academia Latina de la Grabación. "Estas cuatro mujeres, exitosas, son apasionadas, objetivas y extraordinariamente inspiradoras. Estamos agradecidos por el impacto positivo que logran dentro de nuestras comunidades y por el ejemplo que dan a la siguiente generación de líderes, demostrando que todo es posible".

El evento anual de Leading Ladies of Entertainment no solo es una oportunidad para que La Academia Latina de la Grabación otorgue reconocimiento y destaque el trabajo de mujeres excepcionales, sino que también sirve como plataforma para recaudar fondos para la Fundación Cultural Latin GRAMMY^®. Una parte de los fondos recaudados de patrocinios corporativos se donará para subsidiar una beca para una joven interesada en estudiar música.

Para apoyar el evento, TURESPAÑA se incorporará por primera vez como patrocinador oficial. Además, Mastercard se une como patrocinador oficial de pagos y, junto con La Academia Latina de la Grabación, rendirá homenaje a mujeres destacadas. Después del evento, Mastercard presentará contenido exclusivo en priceless.com que recapitulará la celebración y la importancia del éxito de las mujeres en la industria del entretenimiento.

MIAMI (JUNE 3, 2025) – The Latin Recording Academy® announced that Raphael will be the 2025 Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year™.

Raphael will be honored for his more than six-decade career as a multifaceted singer and performer, which has established him as a true ambassador of Latin music worldwide. The artist will be celebrated at a special gala featuring a heartfelt tribute concert with renditions of his renowned repertoire, performed by a star-studded lineup of singers and friends. The gala is set to take place on November 12 in Las Vegas during Latin GRAMMY® Week.

“We feel tremendously proud to pay this well-deserved tribute to Raphael for an exemplary artistic career that has transcended borders and languages,” said Manuel Abud, CEO of The Latin Recording Academy. “His unmistakable style, resilience, and constant reinvention have kept him relevant throughout the decades, making him a source of inspiration for new generations of Latin music creators.”

“I feel deeply grateful to The Latin Recording Academy for this recognition that I have dreamed of receiving for many years. Being named Person of the Year thrills me immensely; it's the best way to celebrate so many years of dedication and love for music,” said Raphael. “Thank you to the audiences that have always stood by my side, to my dear colleagues, and the entire music industry. It's an honor I will always carry in my heart. I look forward to reuniting with everyone in November to celebrate together and give back all that affection through songs. A huge hug and my most sincere gratitude.”

Rafael Martos, known artistically as Raphael, was born in Linares, Spain, in 1943. Raised in Madrid, he discovered his passion at the age of four, and at nine he won the Best Child Voice in Europe award at the prestigious Salzburg Festival. He achieved international recognition after representing Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest with “Yo Soy Aquél” (1966) and “Hablemos Del Amor” (1967), and performing on the legendary The Ed Sullivan Show in 1970, among other highly acclaimed programs. His musical impact was complemented by a successful film career, appearing in movies like Al Ponerse El Sol (Mario Camus, 1967), El Golfo (Vicente Escrivá, 1969), and Mi Gran Noche (Álex de la Iglesia, 2015). With an extraordinary voice and a distinctive performing style, Raphael pioneered the internationalization of melodic songs. He has performed remarkable works written specifically for him by renowned songwriters like Manuel Alejandro and José Luis Perales, with hits such as “Digan Lo Que Digan”, “Qué Sabe Nadie” or “Escándalo”. He has performed at renowned venues like Madison Square Garden, the Olympia in Paris and the National Auditorium in Mexico. Throughout his career, Raphael has shown an impressive ability to evolve while staying true to a style that reflects his unique identity. In recent years he has released albums such as Victoria and his most recent Ayer...Aún, which includes a posthumous duet with Édith Piaf, his great reference. He has also been the subject of the documentary Raphaelismo, an intimate look at his life and career. After overcoming a brain lymphoma diagnosed at the end of 2024, he announced his return to the stage this year with Raphaelísimo, a new tour that will take him across Spain and Latin America. At 82, Raphael continues to sell out theaters, arenas, and stadiums with the same passion as on day one, and his influence has inspired numerous music creators worldwide.

The Latin Recording Academy Person of the Year honors musicians and their artistic achievements in the Latin music industry, as well as their humanitarian efforts. The past honorees are Carlos Vives (2024), Laura Pausini (2023), Marco Antonio Solís (2022), Rubén Blades (2021), Juanes (2019), Maná (2018), Alejandro Sanz (2017), Marc Anthony (2016), Roberto Carlos (2015), Joan Manuel Serrat (2014), Miguel Bosé (2013), Caetano Veloso (2012), Shakira (2011), Plácido Domingo (2010), Juan Gabriel (2009), Gloria Estefan (2008), Juan Luis Guerra (2007), Ricky Martin (2006), José José (2005), Carlos Santana (2004), Gilberto Gil (2003), Vicente Fernández (2002), Julio Iglesias (2001) and Emilio Estefan (2000).

MEXICO CITY (MAY 23, 2025) – The Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation®, in partnership with Berklee Global, hosted the second Emerging Talent Intensive Program, marking its international debut, at Rec Música in Mexico City. The immersive learning experience, presented by TikTok, took place over two days guiding 100 aspiring music creators through workshops focused on production, the essentials of songwriting including lyric and harmony analysis, song structure, stage performance and marketing music from conception to completion.

The curriculum was led by Berklee College of Music’s faculty professor Enrique González Müller and vocalist and educator, Kaimy Masse, alongside instructors from Rec Música including producer, arranger and pianist José Miguel Quijano Toledo, and producer and Jazz bassist Juan Carlos Sardaneta Cesari. Additionally, Latin music industry leaders joined the program, including Latin GRAMMY®-winning composer Mónica Vélez and Latin GRAMMY nominees Horacio Palencia, León Leiden and Paty Cantú, who also served as an official sponsor, as did Fiesta Americana and Kaiser.

"Berklee Global, the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation, and Rec Música have collaborated to create a program designed to equip today’s musicians with integrated skills across songwriting, production, performance and music business—all essential areas in the contemporary music industry,” said González Müller. “Educators from Berklee and Rec Música worked closely to develop custom, symbiotic teaching content with a focus on highlighting and engaging local Mexican artists’ music. The program—made possible through the generous support of TikTok—exemplifies music education excellence, uplifts local culture, and fosters ongoing collaboration within a transformative global network."

"For TikTok, music is part of our DNA," said Laura Reyna, Public Policy Manager for Latin America. "We have proudly taken our musical passion to concrete actions that have revolutionized music. Today, we are not only an ally of established artists, we are a catalyst for new talent and have established extraordinary partnerships with institutions such as The Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation. Intensive programs like this help us continue to democratize the industry, remove barriers and professionalize those who have something to tell the world with their voice, an instrument and a melody that we will never forget."

"We are grateful to our partners for their support in bringing the second Emerging Talent Intensive Program to Mexico, marking its international debut thanks to the generous support of TikTok, Fiesta Americana, Kaiser and Paty Cantú," said Raquel “Rocky” Egusquiza, Executive Director of the Latin GRAMMY Cultural Foundation. "Together, we are empowering communities through Latin music and culture. "

The Emerging Talent Intensive Program was launched earlier this year, and creates engaging, accessible experiences for aspiring performing artists.
