Today is a BIG day for Jay Ulloa… his song “Manos Al Aire” is finally out!
The track is a huge deal for the 16-year-old Mexican singer, as it’s the first one he’s ever recorded in both English and Spanish (Spanglish)! The Latin fusion track was co-written by Ulloa, produced by Alkatraks (Maiffo + Karloff), and is bound to be another song that’s worthy of your fiery summer playlist.
To get the inside scoop on the song, Celeb Secrets asked Jay to reveal five behind-the-scenes secrets from making it that you won’t hear anywhere else! Did you know that former New District member Sean Cavaliere also helped write some of the lyrics?
Take a listen to the song below. If you like what you hear, make sure to share your thoughts by leaving a reaction under!

Manos Al Aire is the first mix of Spanish and English song I’ve ever recorded!
-
When I was recording final vocals, my friend Sean Cavaliere stopped by the studio and we ended up re-writing some lyrics.
-
When I was on my way to the studio, I was smelling an air freshener and ended up spilling it all over myself. So I smelled like tropical breeze the whole time while recording!

The song is about this girl in LA I met. She was always so tense and I wanted her to live in the moment and have fun on the date we were on.
