A 95-year-old Cuban-American grandmother has won best new artist at the Latin Grammy Awards after being forbidden to pursue music as a child. She is the oldest musician ever to be nominated in this category. In her speech, the nonagenarian thanked her grandson, a composer, who recorded her voice, which earned her the stardom she has long deserved.
Singer-songwriter Angela Alvarez tied for the best new artist in the 2022 Latin Grammys on Nov. 17, alongside artist Silvana Estrada.
