Gloria Estefan's journey began with the hit song 'Conga' in 1985, after numerous rejections. This marked her rise in the music industry, leading to the establishment of a successful empire that includes numerous Latino artists like Shakira. Now 67, her first Spanish-language album in 18 years, titled 'Raices', highlights her strong Cuban roots and commitment to Latino culture, especially in the wake of anti-immigrant sentiment in the U.S., led by figures like Donald Trump. Her upbringing emphasized maintaining cultural heritage through music and other aspects of life.
"Conga became Gloria's first global hit, followed by hundreds more, marking the beginning of her and Emilio's influential career in Latin music worldwide."
"With over 100 million records sold, Gloria's latest Spanish-language album, Raices, reflects her commitment to celebrating Latino roots amidst rising anti-immigrant sentiments."
