Today is about candy peeps, the Easter bunny, Jesus Christ, and the legend that is and will forever be, Selena Quintanilla.
March 31, 2013, marks the 18th anniversary of Selena’s unfortunate death, a death that hit the latin community extremely hard and would later go on to affect mainstream culture worldwide thanks to a certain movie, I’m sure I’m not the only one who still can’t stand to even look at the actress who portrayed Yolanda in the film.
Selena is a legend, her music and spirit will forever continue to impact the music industry, the world, and especially my life. Quintanilla was an early inspiration for me, her music was a staple growing up in my family and I will always continue to keep her memory alive. Thank you for the music, Selena.
