  "account": "Argentine singer-songwriter Milo J delivered a political message through folk music, winning the Latin Grammy for Record of the Year. \"I believe all types of music are political, whether it's a trap song or folk music,\" Milo J said after collecting the award. The 20-year-old's folk song 'Niño' in the chamamé style, originating from Argentina's northeastern litoral region, outshone established names like Colombian reggaeton star Karol G and Spanish singer Rosalía, who won Song of the Year and Album of the Year, respectively. \"It's a source of pride for me,\" Milo J stated. Competing against top music industry figures, he highlighted how his album and folk music in general can transcend boundaries. Milo J performed alongside legendary Argentine composer Gustavo Santaolalla and members of Uruguayan murga group Agarrate Catalina at the 27th edition of the Latin Grammy Awards. His album 'La vida era más corta' emerged from a period of nostalgia in Milo J's life, leading him to reconsider his entire life. The singer arrived at the ceremony with seven nominations, converting four to make him one of the night's most successful winners.",
