“I never thought about doing a remix until Shawn Mendes, one of my favorite artists, mentioned it to me. Being a huge fan of his music, the sheer idea of ​​hearing him sing in Spanish is something that got me so excited. The fact that he decided to sing in this language for the first time in his career on a song with me is one of the greatest honors I have ever had in my career as an artist.
