“Quiero Ser” is an original romantic cumbia with a great beat, strong lyrics from Mexican songwriterYvonne Garcia, and a catchy melody featuring the vocals of Aguilar. He shared details on recording the song in an interview withTejano Nation‘s DJ Peaches. “It was funny because the first time that I was going to record this song, I was going down a totally different route with it,” he said. “I kind of got halfway and through and I was like, ‘Uhh, not feeling it.’ So, I said we’re going to make it sound like a monster.”
