After that, usually like you have a VIP guest or someone from the audience say one of the phrases from one of his new songs, And you have someone saying like, Puerto Rico is something else.
And in that section, that's usually you have like the musical guests.
And then the last section is kind of like his salsa portion of the evening.

And it's like incredibly fun.
His last two songs are the lead song of the album, and then La Mudanza.
talking about like, oh, I don't want my people to move.
