Tremendo rumbón que se formó aquella noche con estas grandes estrellas del arte y sabor latinoamericano. Mis respetos para las señoras Celia Cruz y Patti LaBelle que dieron el toque lleno de sazón y sandunga tanto en español como en inglés.

Stevie Wonder and that harmonica.. is killing it.. anyone eho can master a harmonica is musical genius in the 2000's

[@BrianSummers-g6y]

First time I saw Celia Cruz, I didn't know who she was blowing/singing in Spanish I had always wanted to go see and her sing in concert, even though I don't understand Spanish we love her in America

[@andreidenisjebelean6297]

4:44? WHAT SONG IS THIS??? 4:58? I NEED TO KNOW!!!

[@V.E.R.O.]

It's "Conga" by Miami Sound Machine.

[@V.E.R.O.]

The song after that is "Quimbara" by Celia Cruz.

[@andreidenisjebelean6297]

@@V.E.R.O. thanks! But I have another question. What is Patti LaBelle singing at 4:58 ? What language is that?

[@V.E.R.O.]

@@andreidenisjebelean6297 it's a mix of vocalization and english lyrics of Conga. Celia sang the lyrics in Spanish and Patty in English. The original version is in English, I think it was inspired on Quimbara, it sounds a lot like it.

[@andreidenisjebelean6297]

@@V.E.R.O. i understand! Thank you so much! First, I thought the song from 4:58 is another song, not Conga.

[@claudiacalderin2755]

Celia cruz me mata xd i love her verdadera musica no la mierda de hoy en dia....

[@giovannilagos2514]

Girl not everywhere it’s called “potaje” or “sopa” stop that bs

[@giovannilagos2514]

Gloria estafan is so rude in person she shouldn’t be paid homage

[@theshapeshadow]

One thing you can definitely NOT describe Gloria as is rude. She's known universally for how lovely, kind and down to earth she is which is why you never hear any shit about her nor do you ever hear other divas talking dirt about her. She is loved and adored by celebrities and reporters and people globally.
