The singer will take some time away from music and exposure on social networks after the “madness” that the last year meant for him.
The Spanish musician Quevedowho rose to global stardom with millions of views of his first album, “Where I want to be”and his very popular session with Bizarreannounced that he will take some time away from music and exposure on social networks after the “madness” that the last year meant for him.
“I am not a machine”he explained Pedro Luis Dominguez Quevedosuch is the full name of the 22-year-old young man born in Madrid but a proud resident of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, where he lived much of his life.
In the broadcast on his Instagram (@quevdeo.pd), where after his decision to disconnect today he had deleted all his publications, Quevedo spoke to his fans one year after the premiere of “Where I want to be”, with which he toured also for Latin America in 2023.
Quevedo’s message to his followers
His followers feared something even more drastic than an indefinite break, especially due to one of the fragments of his song “Now what”, which said “2021 sow, 2022 reap, 2023 crown, 2024 disappear”: “It has been an incredible year and I know that everyone was wondering the typical thing, about the phrase ‘2024…’ and all that. Well, I had to do what I had to do, now I’ve finished it and it’s time to take a vacation,” the singer warned.
“Don’t expect anything from me.”, he reinforced, in reference to the emptiness of his Instagram account, which has 3.3 million followers. However, she warned that there is still one last “gift” left to complete the “Where I want to be” stage, of which she did not provide further details.
2023 was the definitive year of consecration for Quevedo, who collected several international awards, such as the Latin Grammy for Best Urban Song for his Session with Bizarrap, immortalized by its chorus “Quédate.”
“Since ‘Night Fell’ came out I haven’t stopped,” said the artist about his rise of “madness” and in relation to the song that made him known in 2021. Then came the collaborations with Bizarrap and Ed Sheeran, which catapulted him even higher.
“With this live show I wanted to say goodbye to you, to thank you for what you have done with me. It has been incredible, I hope in the future to be able to do another tour and be able to see you at shows,” he said goodbye, and then responded to those who asked him for a new CD: “I am not a machine! (…) people have to understand that making albums is not like that, if we want to make something of quality and that makes sense, it takes time”.
