Gusi, the acclaimed Colombian singer-songwriter, celebrates a significant milestone in his career with a nomination for the prestigious 2024 Latin GRAMMY® in the Best Contemporary Tropical Album category for his latest record, Monte Adentro. Released in May, the album stands as a powerful tribute to Colombia’s Caribbean roots, resonating deeply with global audiences and solidifying Gusi’s status as a leading figure in contemporary tropical music.
Monte Adentro, a co-production with the legendary Emilio Estefan Jr., merges the ancestral sounds of the Caribbean with modern rhythms, offering a vibrant musical journey that invites listeners to dance and reflect on the love of one’s heritage. Since its release, the album has been praised for its authenticity and for capturing the essence of Colombian culture in each of its songs. This Latin GRAMMY® nomination recognizes a body of work that, as Gusi has described, is “a return to the origin, to the roots, but with a new perspective and filled with pride for our heritage.”
With this recognition, Gusi not only reaffirms his place on the international music scene but also celebrates a project that came from the heart. The album, composed of 7 tracks, includes hits like “Solo Tuyo” and “Me Voy Contigo,” songs that quickly became fan favorites for their unique blend of vallenato and pop. Each track on Monte Adentro tells a piece of history, a connection to the roots, and a reminder of the importance of Latin culture.
This Latin GRAMMY® nomination adds to an already distinguished career, marked by multiple previous nominations to the same award. Gusi continues to break barriers and elevate Colombia’s name on the global stage with every new project.
