SESAC Latina has renewed its partnership with Manuel Turizo, who first joined the organization in 2017. In 2024, he was named SESAC Latina songwriter of the year (pop/Latin rhythm) and received song of the year (pop/Latin rhythm) for “El Merengue” with Marshmello. The Colombian artist has also earned multiple accolades, including three 2023 Billboard Latin Music Awards: Latin airplay song of the year, Tropical song of the year, and Global 200 Latin song of the year, all for “La Bachata.” The two-time Latin Grammy nominee has appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with “La Bachata” (No. 67) and “Vaina Loca” (No. 94). Last year, the Colombian artist released a string of singles, including reggae-laden “Cosas de Enamorao — Salud mi Reina” and the Afrobeats-tinged “Mírame Ahora — Salud mi Reina.”

“We are so thrilled that Manuel will continue to be part of the SESAC Latina family. His talent and dedication to his craft are unparalleled and we can’t wait to support him as his career continues to soar,” said Celeste Zendejas, senior vp of SESAC Latina, in a statement. — Isabela Raygoza
