Argentine duo CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso won five awards at the 2025 Latin Grammys

The annual Latin Grammy awards are always full of glamour and glitz. But they're also an ideal time to take the pulse of the industry — which is exactly what Anamaria Sayre did this year, perusing the red carpet to talk with the most exciting names in Latin music. 

In this episode, Ana brings Felix her report from Las Vegas, where Bad Bunny won Album of the Year, the independent Brazilian music scene made a splash, and the whole industry seemed to be saying: "Show us where you're from."

This podcast episode was produced by Noah Caldwell. The executive producer of NPR Music is Suraya Mohamed.
