The Heat Latin Music, the first Spanish-language music award made outside the United States, will hold its seventh gala on June 2 at the paradisiacal beaches of Ciudad Destino Cap Cana, in the Dominican Republic. Last Wednesday, March 23, the most important Latino talents who won in their 17 categories of public voting were announced.

Renowned Peruvian performers were listed on different lists and did not hesitate to share this important news with their followers through social networks. Yahaira Plasencia was one of them. The salsa boat is nominated for Best Tropical Artist category, competing against Romero Santos, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Marc Anthony, among other great artists.

“I want to tell you that I am very happy to be nominated for the best tropical artist category at the heat awards. It is a privilege for me to share this nomination with great artists. Thank you Peru,” said the national artist on her Instagram account.

In the short list of Best Artist Southern Region, Leslie Shaw will represent Peru and is competing against Nathi Peluso, Anitta, Bizarrap, María Becerra and more. This is not the first time that the 33-year-old singer has been nominated for this category, since in previous installments her name also appeared on the list and she went on to win in the 2020 edition.

Meanwhile, Álvaro Rod was nominated in the category “Musical Promise”. The outstanding Peruvian composer and singer hopes to beat Kim Loaiza, Dekko, Nicole Vega, Chris Lebrón, among other artists.

“You don't know how excited it is to bring the flag of our Peru to the world, that's why I work every day and without you it wouldn't be possible. It means a lot to me and I will always do my best to be in the eyes of the world,” Álvaro commented upon learning that he was nominated.
