Esty

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Being a first gen Dominican-American, it was no surprise that Esty's musical influences would be rich in pop culture. Her musical taste began to soar when her father played Michael Jackson's "History: Past, Present and Future, Book 1" Album. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Kendrick Lamar, To Pimp a Butterfly Michael Jackson, History: Past, Present and Future, Book 1 Tego Calderón, El Abayarde These three albums define a pivotal moment in time that changed me creatively, forever. MJ's album unlocked all the musical possibilities for myself and the world at that time, Tego ignited my love for underground reggateon, and KL's flow shaped me.
