Edgar Barrera Says Composing Is a ‘Result of Relentless Effort’ For Him | Billboard News

For Edgar Barrera, the elusive hit is not just a stroke of luck, but rather a result of a year's worth of relentless effort. The 24-time Latin Grammy winner credits his creative process to a meticulous schedule that fills an entire calendar with daily songwriting sessions.

"I keep track of every single day," he reveals, showcasing his organized approach. "It's like my whole month is packed with songs. I'd turn the page and see three songs created in one day – it's crazy." This behind-the-scenes look at Barrera's work ethic paints a picture of a master songwriter pouring his heart and soul into every composition.

While fans may only catch glimpses of his output, those close to him know the truth: that the real magic happens when he spends hours collaborating with talented artists like Peso Pluma, Frontera, and Carín León. Take his recent three-day collaboration with Carín León, for example – a burst of creativity resulted in an astonishing nine new songs, including seven original compositions.

So how did Barrera get started on this creative journey? The answer lies in his long-held passion for music, which began at the tender age of 14 or 15. "I've always written music," he reflects, emphasizing that songwriting has been a constant source of inspiration and joy throughout his life.

With an unrelenting work ethic and an unwavering dedication to his craft, Edgar Barrera's unparalleled success in the Latin music scene is no surprise.
 
So I guess you could say Edgar Barrera is like me, always writing songs... about my own life 🤣. But seriously, who has the time to write 9 new songs in 3 days? I can barely finish a Netflix show without feeling guilty 😂. On a more serious note, it's awesome that he makes songwriting a priority and gets those creative juices flowing. Maybe I should start a daily writing session too... but let's be real, my creativity is still stuck on "what's for dinner?" 🍔
 
🤩 I'm obsessed with how dedicated he is to his songwriting! 24 times Latin Grammy winner? That's insane! 🤯 I mean, who wouldn't want to spend every day writing songs? It's like he has this magical system where he can just tap into inspiration and create amazing music. I need that kind of focus in my life, you know? 💖
 
The key to success is not just about being passionate about what you do, it's also about the systems in place to support that passion... like a calendar full of songwriting sessions 📅💫. I mean, can you imagine if our politicians had such a structured approach to tackling problems? Maybe we'd have more solutions than we do today 🤔. It's almost as if Barrera's discipline is what separates him from the competition – and that's something we should be studying in our own political landscape... how to stay focused under pressure, I mean 💪.
 
omg i'm low-key obsessed with edgar barrera's songwriting process 🤯 he's literally crushing it with that daily schedule 📆 it's so inspiring to see someone pouring their heart and soul into creating hits 💖 and i love how he collaborates with talented artists like peso pluma and carín león 🎶 the fact that he's been writing music since he was 14 or 15 is just wild 🤯 his passion and dedication are truly admirable, and it shows in his incredible output 🙌
 
OMG, I'm so down with this guy's schedule 🤯🎶 - 365 days of songwriting sessions? That's dedication for you! I mean, it makes sense that he'd be able to come up with hits when his mind is constantly filled with ideas. And collaborating with other talented artists like Peso Pluma and Frontera must bring out the best in him too 🤝. It's great to see someone pouring their heart into music and turning it into something amazing. Edgar Barrera's passion for songwriting is inspiring 💕, and I think we can all learn from his work ethic (even if our own 'productive days' are more like ' binge-watching marathons 📺😴').
 
Wow 🤯 I mean, can you believe someone writes 3 songs in one day? That's insane! Interesting how organized he is too, it's like a calendar full of creativity 😂.
 
🤯 I mean, can you even imagine creating three new songs in one day? 🎶 Like, what kind of magic happens when he's in that zone? 🧙‍♂️ I've been trying to write my own music for ages and it's like I'm a total noob compared to Edgar Barrera 😂. He must have an insane amount of talent and creativity just sitting there on the page waiting to be unleashed 🔥. And it's not just about writing songs, he's actually collaborating with other talented artists which takes his work to the next level 🤝. I'm seriously jealous right now 😒
 
can't help but feel inspired by barrera's daily routine 🤯 - 24 songs a year is crazy, but who needs more than that when you're pouring your heart into each one? 💖
 
omg I am literally so inspired by edgar barrera 🤯 he's like my ultimate songwriter goals - always creating new music and collaborating with other talented artists 💕 i wish i had that kind of schedule lol mine is more like try to write a song every week if i'm lucky 🎶 anyway i've been listening to his latest album nonstop and the 3-day collab with carin leon was insane! 9 new songs in one weekend? 🤯 i need to step up my own creative game stat 💪
 
🤔 I'm telling you, this guy's schedule is straight outta a spy thriller 🕵️‍♂️. How does he come up with so much new material in just one month? It's like he's got a team of songwriting ninjas working for him under the radar 🔮. And let's be real, those collaborations with Peso Pluma and Frontera sound too good to be true 🤑. I'm not buying it until I see some proof that Barrera's not just milking his fans for attention 🎵. Still, if his passion is genuine, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt 🔜.
 
lol what's up with people thinking 3 days of collab = 9 new songs tho 🤣 like I'm on some secret songwriter island or something. and can we talk about how organized he is? daily songwriting sessions every day of the year? that's dedication fam 💪🎶
 
🤔 I think it's kinda sad that we idolize people who are just really disciplined with their time... I mean don't get me wrong, hard work is key and all that but let's not forget that creativity can be a super messy process too 🌪️. Barrera's schedule might seem organized on the surface, but what about the days when he doesn't create anything? Does that count for anything? And what about the pressure of constantly producing new music? That's gotta take a toll on someone's mental health 🤕. Let's not forget to appreciate the weirdos and geniuses who make art without a schedule 🎨💫
 
I'm so over this "elusive hit" narrative 🙄. Like, doesn't everyone put in the work? It's not like he just magically conjured up 24 Latin Grammys out of thin air 💫. It's all about putting in the time and effort, no secret formula needed. And by the way, how many people can honestly say they've written music since age 14 or 15? 🎶
 
Man, this dude is on another level 🤯. I mean, 24-time Latin Grammy winner? That's like, a whole different universe of talent right there. And what's even more impressive is that he's still putting in the work, day in and day out. It's not just about being lucky or talented, it's about grinding every single day and making music a huge part of your life.

I love how he breaks down his process, too - like, turning to a new page every day and seeing three songs created? That's dedication, bro 💯. And collaborating with other artists? Game-changer. I mean, can you imagine being in a room with Peso Pluma and Frontera, just creating magic all day long? 🎶

And at the end of the day, it's clear that music has been his passion since he was a teenager. That's something to be admired, you know? Not many people can say they've made songwriting such a huge part of their lives. So yeah, Edgar Barrera is definitely someone to watch out for 🔥.
 
🎶 The dude's songwriting schedule is crazy lol! Like, who has time for 3 songs a day? But I guess that's what happens when you're passionate about it 🤩. It's cool to see him crediting his collaborations with artists like Peso Pluma and Carín León for some of his best work. Maybe we can learn a thing or two from his dedication to music... who knows, maybe one day I'll be writing songs like him too 😂.
 
😊 I mean, can you even believe it? This guy's been writing songs non-stop for years and he still manages to create some magic. It's like he's tapped into this creative superpower that just keeps flowing out of him. 💫 But what really gets me is how much effort goes into his process. Like, I'm pretty sure most people can't even muster up the motivation to write one song a day, let alone nine in three days 🤯. And it's not just about being prolific either, it's about quality too – he's working with some top-notch artists and still manages to churn out hits. I guess that's what happens when you're passionate about music from a young age ⏰.
 
lol what even is this dude's schedule tho? daily songwriting sessions for a whole year straight 🤯 3 songs per day? that's like trying to write a novel every single day... i guess when you're as talented as barrera, time just flies by 💪 anyway, it's sick how he gets those collabs with big artists and still manages to crank out so much heat 🔥
 
📅🎵 u know i love how barrera breaks down his songwriting process into tiny little pieces - it's like he's a schedule ninja or somethin 🤯 if you think about it, having a daily routine that fills up an entire calendar is actually super productive... and it's not just about the songs themselves, but also about the process of creating them. i mean, who needs distractions when u can turn the page to three new songs every day? 💡 meanwhile, his collaborations with other artists are what give us all the real magic 🤩 carin leon is low-key my fave collaborator rn... anyway, it's clear that barrera's dedication to music has been going on for ages - 14 or 15 and still crushing the game 🎶
