Miami, FL | December 6, 2024 – Latin Grammy-nominated artist and reggaeton icon De La Ghetto breaks new ground with the release of his cover of “Sweet Child O’ Mine”, the legendary anthem by Guns N’ Roses. Seamlessly blending the energy of Rock & Roll with his signature style, this ambitious project will be available on all digital platforms starting at midnight this Friday, December 6.
This release signifies a pivotal moment in De La Ghetto’s career, as he boldly honors one of rock’s most cherished classics while offering it a contemporary and innovative perspective. The idea for the cover originated after his performance of the song on a television show in Argentina, a moment that captivated audiences and deepened his connection to this timeless track.
“Two years ago, I reached out to De La Ghetto with the idea of featuring him on an English-speaking song, as a well-known Latin figure. When I saw him perform 'Sweet Child O’ Mine' on TV, I knew the timing was perfect”, said Adam Mehl of AGM Entertainment Inc., the label behind the project.
The track was produced by Johnny Andrews, a seasoned talent with eight #1 rock hits to his name. Known for his ability to honor the essence of classic songs while infusing them with fresh energy, Andrews captured the original’s spirit while integrating unique elements that reflect De La Ghetto’s artistry.
“This project is a dream come true for me. I approached it with the utmost professionalism and respect for the original. The result surpassed even my own expectations, and I feel immense joy knowing we’ve bridged musical boundaries,” said De La Ghetto.
More than just a cover, this rendition of “Sweet Child O’ Mine” showcases the versatility of an artist unafraid to experiment, celebrating the universal power of music and the blending of genres.
