Thank you to The Latin Academy for undertaking the task of following my career and considering me among the greats that have left a mark in the world of music. Thank you to everyone who has been witnesses to my journey, from my beginnings to the present day, and who are in some way also part of this important achievement. I would like to share this sentiment with everyone who has inspired me, and with those who I may have inspired as well to be able to occupy this place that the public has made me deserving of through this blessing called music. Meanwhile, the Mexican singer said, “I am very moved and grateful to The Latin Recording Academy for this special distinction that means so much to me professionally and personally. For this we are honored to bestow him with the 2022 Latin Academy Person of the Year distinction.” “He continues to break down generational barriers through his poignant lyrics which move millions of people and inspire greater acceptance and understanding. “Marco Antonio Solís is a living legend and one of the most emblematic figures in Latin music,” said Manuel Abud, CEO of The Latin Recording Academy. Solís is one of the most respected musicians of his generation-generous with his talents by composing and producing for other performers-as well as an ardent supporter of up-and-coming talent.

His dedication to his musical roots has made him a true ambassador of Latin music around the world, endearing him to the legions of fans who have been moved by his songs. Solís will be honored for his more than four-decade career as a multifaceted performer and one of Mexico’s most successful artists of all time.
