To hear an artist be transparent is one of the greatest things they could ever do for their fans. I love that, when I see my fans on the road we have real conversations and it's not even that I do it as some big ploy to have album sales. I do it because it's important for them to understand who I am. So, whatever backlash comes along with me being transparent, there's nothing I can do about it.
I feel so much pride to represent my community and be Latino. No doubt about it, above my career and sales being a Latino comes first.

In the Ford Motor Company, we emphasize service equally with sales.
My monsters were lovable monsters. I gave them names - some were evil and some were good. They made sales, and that's always been my prime object in comics.
Mediocre products with great sales teams always beat great products with mediocre sales teams.
What's been missing from digital music sales has been the possibility of added depth. In a printed package one can only include so many images and so much text - for example - but digitally it's wide open.

In sales, it's not what you say; it's how they perceive what you say.
Talk is cheap. If it wasn't, people might not toss around 'I love you' like a marked-down phrase in a sales bin.
