The Latin Recording Academy® - or LARAS -produces the annual Latin GRAMMY Awards®, called "The Biggest Night in Latin Music®." The international nonprofit's CEO Manuel Abud stepped into his role a year ago. Now, he's joined this summer by Enrique Pérez, the new LARAS Head of Partnerships & Client Solutions. The two men worked together at Telemundo and Azteca. They join The Revolución co-hosts Kathryn Garcia Castro, Linda Lane González, Diego Lastra, and Court Stroud to talk about topics including the explosion in popularity of Latin music, such as Bad Bunny's recent #1 worldwide ranking on streaming service Spotify; how the Academy chose its 2022 Person of the Year™, Marco Antonio Solís; and the foundation of their professional relationship and personal friendship.
