For Josimar, Daniela Darcourtwho has managed to stand out internationally with his collaboration with the renowned Tito Nieves, It is number one in the genre. According to him, Darcourt is managing to make his way with effort and dedication, and his presence in Colombia is a clear indication of his growing popularity.
“For me, number 1 is Daniela Darcourt, who is dating, she is leveraging well with Tito Nieves. I know he has played in Colombia, we have crossed paths,” the singer commented to Expreso. On the other hand, referring to Yahaira Plasencia, Josimarwas not so kind, ensuring that she is still far from reaching that position. “Yahaira, I don’t know; I think no, it doesn’t fit. “She is working to achieve it, but no, she is not in,” he stated bluntly.
But that was not all. Josimar not only caused controversy for his statements about Yahaira Plasencia, but also for his comments about salsa in Peru.
“There is no salsa industry. What I achieved was that, to have an industry. It was possible for the salsa orchestras to have a good show, to invest in themselves because I was the only artist who changed salsa in Peru, no matter how it hurts whoever hurts,” he stated. Josimar explained that, although he did not change the rhythm of salsa, it did revolutionize the “performance” of artists in the genre.
