From the Isthmus to the World: Panamanian Artists Shine at Premios Lo Nuestro

Miami, Florida: Emilio Regueira, Nando Boom, Jhonathan Chávez, Sech, Boza, Gracie Bon and music producer Dímelo Flow were some of the Panamanian figures who walked the magenta carpet at the 38th edition of Premios Lo Nuestro, held on Thursday, February 19 at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida. The gala, one of the most important in Latin music and organized by Univision, brought together leading artists of the moment and combined live performances, special tributes, and never-before-seen collaborations.

The ceremony was hosted by Thalía, Nadia Ferreira, and Clarissa Molina, who brought dynamism and elegance to the evening. One of those who most enjoyed the experience from the moment he arrived was Emilio Regueira. The Panamanian musician shared several moments from his time on the red carpet on his social media, showing his enthusiasm for being part of this great celebration of Latin music. Traditional music singer Jhonathan Chávez was also present as a guest, representing Panamanian folklore on a high-profile international stage.

Boza was present at the ceremony, where he was nominated in the Afrobeat category for his song “San Blas.” Although the award went to Myke Towers and Quevedo for “Soleao,” the nomination reaffirms the Panamanian urban artist’s international standing. Influencer Gracie Bon pictured below, experienced her first time walking a red carpet of this magnitude, as she shared on her Instagram account. In addition to her appearance on the carpet, she participated in segments announced by the organizers, further expanding Panama’s presence at the event.

Another highlight was Sech’s performance, which was part of the tribute to Arcángel’s 20-year career. The Panamanian artist electrified the crowd with his rendition of “Novio No,” reaffirming his connection with an international audience. Once again, Panama made it clear that its talent continues to conquer global stages, bringing diversity, rhythm and charisma to Latin music. Gracie Bon also showed up as pictured below.

The night also had a special flavor for Nando Boom pictured below, a pioneer of reggae in Spanish, who, along with Natti Natasha also pictured below, and Dímelo Flow, won the award for Best Dembow Song for the song “Dem Bow,” thus consolidating the validity and influence of the rhythm that marked a whole generation.
