Amazon Music is looking bright into the future. The music streaming platform celebrated the future of music with “The Future Is Ours,” a vibrant campaign that explores the style and sound that pays tribute to the groundbreaking Latino artists of the next generation and their fans.

On Monday, October 23, they held a fashion show in which Amazon turned their Los Angeles headquarters into a unforgettable experience where music fans took part in an immersive journey celebrating art, fashion, music, and technology.

Keyla Marquez, the Fashion Director of the Los Angeles Times, known for her keen eye for fashion, artistic expression, and talent for curating unique and innovative looks, styled those in the fashion show.

As for the fashion show, it featured designers include Guillermo Andrade of 424, Toshi Tanamachi & Mauricio LĂłpez of Tanamachi, Lorena Saravia of eponymous label Lorena Saravia, Jennifer Zapata of GĂ©nero Neutral, Bryan Escareño of Amor Prohibido, Joey Barba and Javier Bandera of Paisa Boys, Elliette Saavedra of Garmette, Roberto SĂĄnchez of Roberto SĂĄnchez, Valeria RamĂ­rez de la Fuente of Valeria Anastasia, Dorian Ulises LĂłpez MacĂ­as of Ese Chico, MarĂ­a Isas of Sentimiento, MarĂ­a JosĂ© JimĂ©nez, MarĂ­a Del Mar Carbonell y MarĂ­a Gabriela Carbonell of MINENA, Sabrina Olivera of Sabrina Ol, Victor BarragĂĄn of BarragĂĄn, Angelo Urrutia of 4S Designs and Guillermo Juarez of Ă‡/E Douze. 

“At Amazon Music, we want to look ahead and celebrate the next generation of Latin music artists and their fans who are fearless in their art, authentic to their core, and intentional with every move. They represent more than just music, and are bringing their creativity to other areas like fashion, beauty, and lifestyle. They are the future and the future is now,” explained Rocio Guerrero, global head of Latin Music at Amazon Music.

Fans across the globe also got to be a part of redefining the future of entertainment by participating in a live stream on the AmazonMusicEnVivo Channel. 

This one-of-a-kind immersive experience was the culmination of Amazon Music’s “The Future is Ours” campaign. Launched last month, “The Future Is Ours” campaign included an Amazon Music Original by Ryan Castro featuring rapper Rich the Kid, “Rich Rappers,” and a brand video featuring the Colombian artist alongside Argentinian multiple Latin GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter, and rapper Nicki Nicole.

“I’m proud to be able to join Amazon Music in celebrating the future of music and culture through this campaign while also bringing my ‘Ghetto Star’ fans along for the journey with this video that includes my take on the future,” said urban artist Ryan Castro. “Last year I ventured into the fashion world with my own clothing line, “Ghetto Med” and since then have been excited to continue growing my presence in it. With Amazon Music integrating my vision and love for fashion into this collaboration means a lot.”

This campaign definitely mesmerized the tapestry of creativity and emotion, blurring the boundaries of reality and ushering in the future of Latino music and culture.
