Manuel Turizo for L’Officiel Argentina
Manuel Turizo, a Colombian singer and composer, has been a musical chameleon from a young age. He experimented with various instruments before deciding to hone his vocal skills. The artist reflected on his musical experimentation and told L’Officiel in a translated quote, “But I didn’t like any of them, so when I was twelve, I told my mother that I wanted to train my voice.”
Turizo’s early dedication led him to Medellín at fifteen, where he broke into the music scene with his hit single “Una lady como tú,” produced by Zenzei and in collaboration with his brother, Julián Turizo Zapata. The song catapulted him into stardom, opening doors to collaborate with heavyweights in the urban genre like Nicky Jam, Ozuna, and Maluma.
The 23-year-old musician’s discography is as diverse as his fashion choices for the photoshoot. His latest album, 2000, is a musical tapestry that weaves merengue, salsa, bachata, and ballads together. “I vibrate with music, and I like to live it that way. 2000 is that” he says, emphasizing his refusal to be confined to a single genre.
As Turizo prepares to take his eclectic sound to Europe and the United States, he remains a romantic at heart, a sentiment that resonates in his new single From Monday to Monday with Grupo Frontera. The song, already available on all digital platforms, speaks to the universal experience of a broken heart, a theme that has always been a cornerstone of music.
