For other people it can mean the next level, personal or professional. It has to do with the illusion of reaching that place we dream of. Ameri for me are goals that one wants to reach in life”, says the singer about the journey that the album represents, in which they join with collaborations Jhayco, QuevedoLucho SSJ, We$t Dubai, Akapellah, Neutro Shorty, Micro TDH, CRO and Salastkbron.
