Artist of the Week: Juanes

Here's the deal, another week another artist. This week's artist is one of the most popular artist in the Spanish speaking world. Even if you don't speak Spanish, there's a chance you probably still heard of him. He has released four albums selling over ten million copies combined. His second album Un Dia Normal was his first to go platinum. It's success can be contributed to it's first single "A Dios le Pido" which topped singles charts in twelve countries. The album was so popular, it went gold in Columbia on it's first day. The album also included the song "Fotografia" that featured Nelly Furtado, and is also one of my favorites. He later released two more albums, Mi Sangre which included singles "La Camisa Negra" and "Nada Valgo Sin Tu Amor", and then La Vida... Es Un Ratico. The reason I decided to have this artist on this week was because, someone I know was lucky enough to fly California just to see him. Maybe one day I'll get a chance to see him, that being said.
This week's artist is Juanes with his video Fotografia, enjoy.
