I was asking random strangers to sing with me in The Village of NYC when along came La Cassandra! She noticed I played a spanish song for my previous guest and wanted to sing one, too! (Little did she know, I had to learn that song ON THE SPOT!) She gave me her song of choice, and so began another test to see whether or not I could pull this style off...

Hey, what's up? How are you doing? Welcome.
Good, thanks.
So, I see you can do Spanish music.
So, I want to do a Spanish song.
Perfect. You've come to the right place.
I know. What do we do?
I learned like 10 words of Spanish.
We're going to learn a few more today.
Perfect.
I was on my way to the park and I saw this.
This song is called Simplemente Amigos.
Simplemente Amigos?
By Ana Gabriel.
Ana Gabriel?
Yes.
Oh, wait.
I got the wrong one.
It's a different song?
Yes.
It's Costumbres I want.
By Rocio Durcal. That's who I wanted.
It's Costumbres?
No, it's called Costumbres.
Costumbres.
There you go.
So, what's your name?
Cassandra.
Nice to meet you, Cassandra.
My name is Reggie.
Nice to meet you.
So, I guess you have lots of Mexican friends.
Yeah.
I have a little bit of everything.
I'm Dominican.
So, when you're not singing Rocio Durcal,
how do you spend most of your time?
Singing.
I'm actually a singer.
Oh, okay.
I'm a Latin singer.
Awesome.
I actually sing around the city too.
I actually have music coming out,
an album coming out.
Nice.
Have you ever wanted to not be a singer?
Like, you know, be something else?
I went to school and I studied
and I tried to like, let me do
the normal thing,
the right thing, I guess, in that time.
And, uh-uh.
I like, left two years later. I was like, no, I can't.
What were you studying?
I was studying business.
Business.
General business admin, you know.
Yeah.
I know. Tell me about it.
For a person who wants to be a singer, that can be a little boring.
Studying business.
Yeah.
But, you know, there's a lot to learn.
But to each their own, you know.
Yeah.
Alright, so, I'm going to go ahead and take my...
I'm getting a little hot, so I'm going to go ahead and take this off real quick.
Okay.
