Karol G Wins Latin Grammy, Delivers Empowering Speech Against Critics

On November 14, 2025, Colombian singer Karol G took home the prestigious Song of the Year award at the Latin Grammys for her chart-topping hit "Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido." However, the moment meant more to her than just the accolade.

In her acceptance speech, Karol G used the platform to stand up against the criticism and negativity she faced in the past year following the release of her album Tropicoqueta. She expressed feeling like nothing she was doing was good enough, but ultimately found solace in reconnecting with the love and passion that drove her to pursue music in the first place.

Karol G also made sure to shout out the Argentine duo Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso, whose track "#Tetas" had warmed her heart that year. She encouraged her fellow artists and all those watching at home to forget the noise, focus on their love and obsession for their craft, and chase their dreams no matter what people say.

Karol G's powerful words resonated with many, as she reminded everyone that true talent and passion matter more than external opinions. Her Latin Grammy win and inspiring speech cemented her status as not just a musical force, but a voice for artistic freedom and self-belief.
