Becky G said,

To me, my voice has always been about more than just singing, it's using it for the greater good and creating a destination for change. “In quarantine, with so much time to consider the world around us, it felt like the perfect opportunity to open a new line of communication and pay it forward, and I'm so thankful that Amazon Music and Gema approached me with the opportunity to create this podcast. I'm excited to be joining forces with Amazon Music so we can start to have conversations about looking within to see how we can all be better.
