MIAMI, FL – March 14, 2014 – (HISPANICIZE WIRE) – Hispanicize Event today announced that Puerto Rican singer “Sie7e” will perform at the first annual Positive Impact Awards, a national program fully sponsored by 3M that recognizes outstanding Latinos who give back to their community selflessly and in big ways.
Sie7e’s musical style is a fusion of rhythms in which one can find reggae, batucada and bomba. His lyrics are accompanied by social, humor, irony and love. Many describe Sie7e’s music as happy or “Feel Good Music”.
“Sie7e’s intention is to spread positivity and the message of happiness, peace and love through his music. Our awards are about uplifting our Latino community and inspiring others to reach for their dreams by being role models in their communities,” said Hispanicize Event co-founder, Katherine Johnson. “It’s a perfect match.”

Sie7e found great success in 2011 with “Tengo Tu Love,” the first single from his third album, “Mucha Cosa Buena,” which immediately reached the top of Billboard’s radio and sales charts. It was with this song that he achieved international fame: 30 countries in Latin America and Europe were familiar with his music. During Hispanicize, Sie7e returns with the first single of what will be his fourth production. “So What” is the title of the new song that sounds both retro and modern.
The Positive Impact Awards red carpet will begin at 6:30pm, show time is set for 7p.m on Thursday, April 3rd. Tickets for Hispanicize Event—an event that brings together Latino trendsetters in the fields of music, film, tech, journalism, PR and marketing, and brands—are on sale at www.HispanicizeEvent.com. Hispanicize runs from April 1-4th at the Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Miami.
