Meet your new obsession.
She’s the Latina Pop Princess with a following growing thicker by the day and this week- in helping to shine a light on her growing buzz- That Grape Juice met Ms. Veronica Vega following the release of her scorching new cut ‘El Papel’.
Want to know why she’s got Pitbull, Polow Da Don and Ne-Yo singing her praises?
Come meet her below…
“My biggest influences are my parents“, she explains when we first met, “Growing up in my household music was almost the most important part of our lives. Like, it woke us up in the morning. My mom loves to sing and my dad enjoys being the DJ and all of that shaped my sound.
A proud Cuban and Venezuelan, the last few years saw Veronica’s life change when she was discovered by Ciara producer Polow Da Don while working the underground circuit. A discovery he described as life changing, sharing:
“Working with Vega has been a life changing experience – Culturally, Musically, and Spiritually. With all that I know about music, I’ve been just as much a student during the process of this project. This project opens my eyes to how big the world really is”.
On her new single ‘El Papel‘, that cultural diversity is all too present- serving an exotic sass Vega says comes courtesy of her a background just as diverse. “My childhood was filled with all kinds of music music, dance, family, and people of different nationalities, so I’ve always been open culturally and you can hear it on Papel. In saying that, the other material has a lot of range-on my mids and ballads I’m more soulful and laid back.
As far as vocalists go, Vega says it’s ‘End Of Time’ singer Beyonce who holds a special place in her heart, citing her epic nature as the reason behind her success. “She’s paved the way for so many newcomers and still has so many beautiful things and qualities to offer.”
A collaboration between the pair? Who knows?…but one thing’s for certain and that’s Pitbull’s contribution to her forthcoming single ‘Wicked’– set to touchdown in the coming weeks.
On the duet, the stunner revealed:
Stan for the Queen!
S*** lady. Mutha likes!
If you stan downe for the Queen, I might could stan downe for you.
I hate the first song but the Selena cover was cute, stick to that mamita.
Giving me ratchet JLo tease 2bh.
S*** girl,bad tastes. You shouldn’t stan for Mrs.Armstrong.
Care for a seat b****? Why do you stay mad at Bey when Janet looks like she finna audition for the lead in the next SAW movie.
You’re coming for Janet but does B have ONE song as iconic as RN or IGSL. No she doesn’t, so f*** off please.
AWWWW, everyone loves Bey, except the Titanic.
Her voice is not given proper credit in that first single !!!! She should follow up with a slow ballad
The first song is a no but the second one has me thinking of using ha. She better not be a flop cos yall know we need some chola realness in the scene right now. Lopez has had her time and Kat Deflopna isn’t going anywhere fast.
A Krimlin calling someone else a flop. The pot is BLACK darling.
Nothing makes me happier than a b**** who loves the King! Yaaaassss b****! Praise ha!
What a horrible song.
You stan for Beyonce AND the W**** so your opinion means s*** to be honest, make up your mind and stop being so damn confused. You bring shame to the Hive everytime you use that name like it’s cute. IT’S NOT!
Girl get your life then get an H** test you firecrotch queen. I can stan for whomever I please, and anyone who doesn’t like it can climb Mt Rushmore and jump. Including your mother b****.
She seems like a nice girl, I like her.
OMG, Reets would love her.
I hope she’s not having s** with Polow. If she is you know what they’ll say about her.
“Paved the way” for WHO ? She ain’t no Madonna for pop, ain’t no Aretha for Soul, ain’t no Mary J. Blige for R&B
Who’s that girl anyway ?
Many new artists credit beyonce as their inspiration/idol where have you been? Even Rihanna in the early stages QUOTE ‘My greatest idol is beyonce’
Isn’t this the girl that was on Lloyds last CD?
Who doesnt love and respect Bey, besides them mad trolls behind the screen.
