Alberto Stylee

Le encantan los animales, mas que eso los perros, algo que para mi sencillamente merece un 10. Y no le tiene miedo aventurar, mudando se a otro país y empezar de nuevo. Una persona que no teme viajar, se esta abriendo las puertas a lo mejor que la vida puede ofrecer, y esa persona es Alberto Stylee. 

The man is an animal lover, more than that, a dog person which gets double points in my book. He is also one who is not afraid to try something new like moving to a new country and starting a new. A person that is not afraid to travel, just opens to some of the best things that life has to offer, and that person is Alberto Stylee.

Bionica: I know you have a little dog named Danita.
Alberto Stylee: Yes.
Bionica: Como esta ella? How is she?
Alberto Stylee: She's going to be 3 years old. She's my daughter because I don't have any kids yet. I'm working on it, but she's my little girl and my heart. I love that little dog. I'm working on getting her travel permit so I can bring her with me everywhere I go. So next time you will see her with me all over. She's the baby.
Bionica: Yes! I have 3 little dogs and I love them so much.
Alberto Stylee: Look, I'm the type of person that for example will use animals in general to feel a person out. I will ask a person if they like animals and if they tell me no…Because it's not the same to say that you don't like animals as to say that they aren't really your thing. There are people that like animals, they're cute and all but that's about it. There are people who simply don't like them. And I've always said that a person that doesn't like animals, has no heart. It's a good way to learn about the people that are around you.
Bionica: I agree because they have a sense that we don't and go by vibes. For example if they bark at a certain person a lot…
Alberto Stylee: Exactly. And an animal is just going to give you love. They're beautiful, what's not to like about them? It's one thing for a person to like animals but not want one, but if you just don't like them well…You know what I mean?
And it is a good way for you to be able to pick out your friends by simply asking them because let's say that one day you're with your dog and they come over… For example, one of my best friends, Latin, he's Christian now but he was a reggaeton artist, he takes care of my dog when I go away. My dog loves going over to his house and they love her.
Bionica: What's the wildest thing she has done?
Alberto Stylee: When she was a puppy, if someone left a piece of paper on the floor, she would rip it to shreds. One day she took a whole newspaper while I had gone out and when I got back home there were bits of newspaper all over the house. And another thing, when she does something wrong or pees or poops where she isn't supposed to–she's trained but there are times…we know that she did something because she will hide. 'Where's the dog?' She did something, but if you look around the house you'll find her hehehe.
Bionica: She's too cute. Once, I was either at work or school, we had 2 dogs and they took the paper towel and made a mess!
Alberto Stylee: Yes! They have a party, they mostly break everything when they're in that puppy stage, they experiment a lot. But she is the light of my life that little dog. I love her so much and I love animals and have always been a part of my life.
Bionica: Your song Her Name is Sara (Ella Se Llama Sara), was there a special love in your love named Sara?
Alberto Stylee: Never, and people have always asked me, and it's called I Imagine You (Te Imagino) not Her Name is Sara (Ella Se Llama Sara).

Bionica: Aah.
Alberto Stylee: Everyone always asks me that, but in reality it's a rhyme. No one compares to you, her name is Sara (ti ninguna se compara, ella se llama Sara). It's the name that came about at that moment and I think it was also the most popular name in Colombia, thanks to my people there whom I love and miss so much, they made it #1.
Bionica: What do you like most about your job?
Alberto Stylee: I love being able to sing. I love singing. I love being able to receive the euphoria and applause of the audience when they sing my songs. One of the good things about being a musician aside from the fact that you do have to work hard, people think it's all fun and games but you do have to sacrifice a lot. I love traveling and going to different places. It's one of the great things about being a singer/musician.
Bionica: I also went to Colombia and I loved it, especially the warmth of the people there. What about Colombia made you fall in love with it because I had spoken with Nicky and I think it was him that said that you told him to go to Colombia.
Alberto Stylee: Yes, he and I practically moved in together and our careers took off once again there. But what I liked most about Colombia was the pleasantness of the people and the weather in the city, especially in Medellin.
It was always exquisite, compared to where I'm from an island where it's always hot but I love my Puerto Rico. I call Medellin my second home, I really like it, the way people are sherry loving and how Colombians are just so welcoming, how they greet you…Especially in Medellin, the weather–the country itself is just beautiful. The vegetation and mountains are one of the key things that got me. Christmas in Puerto Rico is like no other and for a Puerto Rican person to spend the holidays away from home it's hard but Colombia is that place where I can tell you that it's almost the same, it's where I was able to feel like I was home. That's when I said 'I really can live here without a worry'
Because you know, it's not easy leaving your home to go live in another country and to a republic no less when you are an American/Puerto Rican citizen. Some people will find it odd, but I tried it and it has been one of the most beautiful experiences I have ever had.
The situation at hand is very sad but we're working on it. I'm innocent and I say it everywhere I go, we're working hard and I hope to one day be able to go back and enjoy some good times with my people. My wife is Colombian and I know that one day things are going to get cleared up and I'm going to be able to sing over there.
Bionica: God willing.
Alberto Stylee: Amen
