  "account": "In the midst of his breakout career, Colombian artist Ryan Castro is passing the torch to the new generation of Colombian stars by bringing Hamilton as the opening act on his Sendé: The Last Dance Tour in the United States. The idea for this collaboration came about due to their shared history, as Hamilton and Castro have collaborated on two songs together and share a strong friendship and mutual respect. Born in Cartagena de Indias in 1999, Hamilton, also known as the Afro Rockstar, has worked with several high-profile artists such as Karol G, Feid, and J Balvin, earning him the stamp of approval from musicians like Farruko, De La Ghetto, Justin Quiles, and Lenny Tavárez. Now, as the opening act on Castro's 17-date North American tour, Hamilton aims to captivate new fans with his velvety voice and Afro-tropical vibe. He plans to engage the audience fully, allowing them to experience his music and connect with his authentic persona. While on tour, Hamilton is taking the opportunity to learn from Castro's dedication and determination, emphasizing that hard work and discipline are key to achieving one's goals.",
