Her music takes her around the world, creating alliances, expanding in search of new markets and listeners. From Miami (United States), in the midst of preparations for the premiere of her recent single entitled The menuthe Ecuadorian singer Dayanara connects with this newspaper to share details of this ambitious project, a collaboration with the Venezuelan artist and youtuber Katie Angel.
After a series of interviews and an exercise session in the gym, from which she emerges with the same appearance of having been in a photographic production (that is, regal), the Guayaquil native emphasizes that this year she has several releases ready that will keep her constantly traveling between Ecuador and the United States.
“Dayanara has a giant appetite right now and that’s why’The menu‘ It comes well loaded, it comes with a starter, main course and dessert. I like that this ‘menu’ has a little bit of sweetness but at the same time a little bit of spiciness, I like spiciness to a certain extent and this menu has it too. So on Friday (today) they will know 100%, what my tastes are and Katie’s too”, he says about this urban genre production.
international collaboration
The menu, Dayanara explains, is a song that she composed shortly before the pandemic began. “I knew from the beginning that I didn’t want to do it alone because for me The menu It’s like a new hymn for women, and I said to myself: I can’t do a hymn alone, I want to do it accompanied and without a doubt by another woman who is breaking it and Katie is someone who is stepping very hard in Latin America today, not only as a youtuber but also as a singer, she is one of the most important youtubers in Latin America, when I made her the proposal she loved it, she went crazy when she heard it. I sent her two options and she told me, she barely listened to her: I like this one, it fascinates me, I identify with it”, she says.
The interpreter of Poor and sad details that Katie, like her, has her partner and both have a phrase in common, which they apply in their lives. “The menu says something very cool and real, when a man is in a relationship and sees a pretty girl, it is very normal for him to go back to see, that his eyes go there but when a cool man passes by it is not good that a woman sees it. And something that we have always said with my group of friends is that even if one is on a diet (as a couple) she cannot see ‘the menu’”, she maintains with a laugh.
The video of The menu (song produced by Héctor Cáceres and Jasmil Marrufo) was recorded a month and a half ago with Katie. “I brought the idea to them and told them: I have this crazy idea of talking about the menu, which puts on the table the reality of women who, even if they are married or in couples, can see without touching, and nothing happens, that is not a sin. Cáceres has written hits like Mayores, Felices los 4, among others, Vacations de Wisin, he joined the madness with Jazmín, Jonathan (Estrada) also joined and this madness remained, ”he mentions.
The menu is a song that fuses various rhythms in which the urban genre prevails. “With Katie we are really making a bomb, we have recorded with different influencers, people from our countries, actors, actresses, singers, and they have their videos ready for when the video is released, we already have the trend from TikTok that is going to be released on the 18th the same, and that’s how we are, messing with everything, ”he comments.
Playing double meaning with the artist, we asked her: Although one checks the menu, there is nothing like homemade food, what do you like about your homemade menu? . The also actress replies: “I love the rogue nickname from my homemade menu, I love the mountain menu, it catches my attention,” she emphasizes with a laugh.
More music
Dayanara also asserts that in 2022 she plans to further develop her musical proposal and make more releases. “This year I would call it ‘The menu’ because many main dishes are coming this year, some collaborations are coming that I have in mind, I am composing, my life is the studio, this year I am going to be half in Ecuador and half based in Miami, God willing, they will have many songs, this year I decided not to stop, I had already six months without launching a new bomb, and this year it will not be like that, they will have long songs, “he says.
Among the musical aspirations that the Ecuadorian has, working together with other female figures of the urban genre is part of her long-term goals. “I would love to be able to collaborate with Karol G, today she is one of the toughest in the industry and as an urban singer I am excited that so many women are opening the way for them and making the collaborations that are taking place more bearable, which is no longer there is prejudice of countries or gender. I’m honest, I would love to be able to collaborate with Karol G, Natti Natasha, with Greeicy, they are the first names that come to mind and obviously we work hard for that to happen but we are in that fight, in that path and process . Me raising the flag of my country as a female and urban singer, ”she adds.
digital platforms
“For me, social networks are too essential, I believe that today, artists have an incredible tool that is social networks and platforms. Many times you don’t need to tour like before, so that people just know about you or know about your music. TikTok has helped me a lot, now that I visit Miami I am surprised that they have known me through this network, that is why for me, I do not let go of networks, they are essential for everything”, he emphasizes on the use of digital platforms for communication. diffusion of his music.
The also ex-beauty queen asserts that artists currently have a challenge in front of their audience that consumes faster content that previously took longer to promote.
“It has happened to me that I release a song and a month people tell me when there is another one and I think that in part that is good because it leads us to make more music, to leave the comfort zone and good or bad it makes you work a lot more and it is more music for the people. Maybe before we took a little longer but we have more content and it’s worth it. That is why this year I decided not to stop, to have more content and songs and that is why, for now, it is not in my plans to release a complete album of new songs because personally, I prefer that the public give value to each song that I do and I like to launch single, that they always savor it”, he expresses.
What is the most unpleasant thing you have experienced through social networks?
Look, I think there is something that happens to me personally and that is that I do consider myself a very sensual woman, I like to be very free, open with the subject of if I want to wear a swimsuit I do it in a very relaxed way and it is that perhaps people cross that line very often and tell me: wearing a bathing suit is vulgar. I feel that it is a comment that I sometimes have to deal with, in which they confuse sensuality with vulgarity, when I personally consider that it is not. But I always respect, I ask for respect, you have to respect all the comments, in networks a little bit of everything is said, I get angry a little I laugh sometimes, at the good and bad comments.
