He is incredibly talented yet humble, smart yet sweet, adorable yet
adorable!!!
I think Frankie Negron is one of the
most up and coming salseros today.
The backstage interview with him went
as follows:
Marla:
You are so young, yet express incredible drive. What or who inspired you?
Frankie:
My father. My father used to listen to music all the time when I was growing up in New
Jersey. Since I was young I was always interested in jazz.
Marla:
How did you feel performing on stage with Marc Anthony at the "Off to Broadway"
concert at Madison Square Garden?
Frankie:
I really admire Marc. I consider him one of the best so it was an honor to be asked to
perform with him.
Marla:
Any plans of releasing "Y Hubo Alguin" as a duet?
Frankie:
Not that song but we're talking about possibly doing something else together.
Marla:
Where did you learn to sing? Did you take lessons?
Frankie:
No, I never studied singing formally. Hopefully God will help me.
Marla:
What is some of your favorite music?
Frankie:
Well, I like the older stuff a lot, at least as much as the newer music.
Marla:
You are performing in "The Capeman" with Marc Anthony. How do you feel about the
role?
Frankie:
I am really happy about it. It is quite an honor to me to be asked to be in it.
Marla:
The public is responding really well to you. You're only twenty years old and are already
one of the brightest stars in the salsa world. What advice do you have for others who may
want to follow in your footsteps?
Frankie:
Never give up and, above all, believe in yourself and follow your dreams.
I wish Frankie Negron the greatest
success. He is such a nice guy...he deserves it!
