WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Inside a dance studio in West Hollywood, three musicians are getting ready for a groundbreaking performance.

Artists known as Georgel, Raymix, and Esteman added a Cumbia twist to El Noa Noa.

In the video they show El Noa Noa as a futuristic place where everyone is accepted. Raymix, who collaborated on the song for the remix, said the video is a representation of a place where everybody from everywhere can come party and have fun together.

“We’re showing people that it does not matter where you’re from, what’s your color, what’s your background, what’s your sexual orientation, we all can come together in el Noa Noa,” said singer Georgel, who is openly gay.

He said the song has become an anthem for the latino LGBTQ community.

Georgel has also become a trailblazer for gay rights within the Latin music industry. He’s told his story about being bullied as part of the “It Gets Better” campaign, a project whose mission is to uplift, empower, and connect LGBTQ youth around the world.

In his video for his first single, he used video of his wedding to his husband.

The upcoming performance not only sends a message to the LGBTQ community but also honors legendary musician Celso Pina who died after playing accordion for the song and Mexican icon Juan Gabriel who wrote and performed the international hit in the 80s.

Juan Gabriel was a close friend of Georgel and his husband.

“He was very happy for our love, he was very happy for our union, he was always very kind of forward thinking as far as universal love and so we got to spend a lot of really special moments with him and that’s the reason, the main reason we thought of El Noa Noa as a way to celebrate his legacy,” said Georgel.

It’s the first time two openly gay artists, Georgel and Esteman, are taking the stage at the Latin American Music Awards and making a statement, sending a tribute and message to the LGBTQ community.

“We’re talking about a song that invites people to set aside prejudice and division and accept us as we are, and I think that’s an issue that may seem simple, but it’s not talked about as much as it should be within the latino community," Esteman said.
