The Latin American Music Awards are finally here! For the eighth consecutive year (with the exception of 2020, which was not possible due to the pandemic) next Thursday, April 20, the 2023 edition of the ceremony that celebrates Latin music and brings together the most important Spanish-speaking artists of the moment will be held.
Bad Bunny, who made history last weekend becoming the first-ever Latin headliner at Coachella, leads the Latin AMAs’ list of nominees (11 nominations). The Puerto Rican artist is followed by Daddy Yankee and Becky G with 9 nominations. Karol G, Rosalía, Rauw Alejandro, Romeo Santos and Grupo Frontera accumulate 8 nominations. Moreover, Bizarrap, Quevedo, Santa Fe Klan, Blessed, Grupo Frontera, Santa Fe Klan and Yahritza y Su Esencia are also nominated in the coveted New Artist Category.
