Raymix, Esteman, Erika Vidrio and Jhonny Caz of Grupo Firme have all been confirmed for Billboard’s 2021 Latin Music Week returning to Miami in September with a weeklong event that unites the top Latin hitmakers, influencers and industry leaders, and features live performances and conversations with superstars.
The four artists will form part of LMW’s “Coming Out Latin” panel for an insightful and heartfelt conversation on the challenges and rewards of coming out as a Latin music act. The panel will be moderated by Eder Diáz, host of the podcast De Pueblo, Católico y Gay.
Recently announced panels include “My Cause, My Music: A Conversation on Social Justice” with Cuban artist/activist Yotuel Romero, Puerto Rican star Kany García and ChocQuibTown members (and husband and wife) Goyo and Tostao; “Making the Hit, Live” masterclass with Lunay and his longtime producers Chris Jedi and Gaby Music; and “Regional No More – Mexican Music Goes Global” with Natanael Cano, Los Dos Carnales and Carin Leon, and moderated by Rancho Humilde’s Jimmy Humilde.
The star-studded 2021 Latin Music Week lineup, headlined by Daddy Yankee, Karol G and Nicky Jam, also includes participation by Anitta, Elena Rose, Myke Towers, Nicki Nicole, Rauw Alejandro, Tainy and Tini, with more to be announced in the coming weeks.
Under the slogan “The Beat of Latin Music,” making its mark as the longest-running and biggest Latin music industry gathering in the world, this year’s event will continue through the end of the week as Billboard launches its En Vivo concert series in partnership with Samsung, Amazon Music and Bacardí.
The 2021 Latin Music Week will take place from Sept. 20 to 24 at the Faena Forum in Miami and coincides with the 2021 Billboard Latin Music Awards broadcasting live via Telemundo on Sept. 23.
