“I love him singing in Spanish, and he does it so good that when I presented the song to him, he was like, ‘Should I do like a verse in English or something?'” she said.

“And I was like, ‘You should do it in Spanish.

You sound so good in Spanish.’ [He said], ‘Come and make me do it perfectly.'” Related Here Are Karol G & Drake’s ‘Ahí’ Lyrics Translated to English Drake Surprises Karol G’s Houston Crowd With ‘Ahí,’ ‘Janice STFU’ & ‘One Dance’ Performances Drake Responds to Karol G Starring as Bruno Mars’ ‘Juliet’ in Romantic ‘Dance With Me’ Video: ‘This Guy Works Fast’ She recalled coaching Drake as he punched in his Spanish lyrics line-by-line, along with making sure he nailed the pronunciation of words like “rico.” “I tried to just play a little bit with his pronunciation,” the 35-year-old added.
