In Spanish, I record a lot of single-voice tracks, and in English, I 'stack' a lot of voices, so it's very different, and I think I got so used to recording in Spanish for six years that it was really refreshing and challenging to get in and record 'Double Vision' in English.— Prince Royce
I wouldn't say I'm changing myself to find a new audience. It's about growing, trying new things. There's a whole other world out there that doesn't know who Prince Royce is.— Prince Royce
