Iván Cornejo:
I was s—ting bricks. I was so scared. It was really fun. It was good nervous, you know?

Hey, what’s up, guys? It’s Iván Cornejo, and you’re watching Billboard News. I felt nice. You know, Houston is like my second home. Like, my first show was here in Houston. Half the crowd was my family and the other 12 people, you know, just fans. It feels nice to just come back two years later and just you know, do the Houston rodeo which was insane for me.

It’s a beautiful feeling. Houston just has always showed me so much love. It feels nice knowing that, like, a lot of people who came to see me tonight.

I was s—ting bricks. I was so scared. It was really fun. It was good nervous. Yeah, it’s insane. It’s scary. Um, you know, I’m still slowly building up my confidence. Practice makes perfect, I guess.

I’ve been in like the smallest venue you can think of, and I’m was more scared of the stadium. But hearing the fans sing your songs just gives you a lot of confidence. And it just definitely made me feel a lot better when I heard people singing.
