I'm proud to be part of this beautiful story. I'm from Colombia and the story is about a Colombian family. In a statement after his casting was announced, the singer said, ''Encanto ' is such a magical movie. Given his Colombian roots, 'Encanto' is understandably a project that's close to Maluma's heart. Instead, he focuses on voice acting, believably bringing his dashing character to life in both the English and Spanish language versions of the film.
Despite his musical bona fides, however, Maluma doesn't sing all that much in 'Encanto.' He joins in on the group song 'All of You' toward the end of the film, but doesn't have his own solo number. While he was born in Medellín, Colombia, the singer-songwriter has since gained global fame, performed around the world, and earned awards recognition from the Latin Grammys, the Billboard Music Awards, and the MTV VMAs.
