  • Summary

  • In the final episode of our Willie Colón journey, we explore his solo career and his legendary collaboration with Rubén Blades, a period that saw him at the top of his game. But as his music thrived, Willie began taking a sharp turn into politics, where he believed he could drive real change. Today, his political views have divided fans. Some of us might distance ourselves, while others still find solace in his music. Ultimately, Colón’s legacy remains in his hands, shaped by both his timeless records and his controversial views.
