The most popular Colombian urban pop singer, Juan Luis Londoño Arias, better known like Maluma (pseudonym made by the principal syllables of the names of his mother “Marlli”, his father “Luis”, his sister “Manuela”) came to United Kingdom for the 41st concert of his world tour F.A.M.E., to an almost totally Latin American crowd.

At 20:00, DJ Natalia and Esther (the former the Colombian's girlfriend) warmed up the atmosphere with songs like “Bum bum tam tam”, by MC Fioti and other danceable songs like “Te boté”, with Bad Bunny, “Sin pijama” by Becky G and Natti Natasha, or the sounded of Black Eyed Peas “I gotta feeling”.

The handsome artist appeared before his audience at 21:07 on a central stage with a catwalk in the middle lined by  lights, fire and a group of eight beautiful dancers, smiling and full of energy to sing an introduction and his first song “23”.

The next song “Corazón” sent the crowd into a frenzy, which continued has he rolled off hit after hit “Me llamas”, “Marinero” and “El préstamo”. “Chantaje”, “Bella”, “Vente pa ́ ca”, “GPS”, “Felices los 4”, “Borró Cassette” and many more songs.

Maluma charisma's and charm were in offensive as the during all the show, saying all the right things, how he was SO grateful to his fans. As is customary, he invited two girls to go up to the stage and took selfies with the second one of them, singing for her and ofcourse, asking her if she had a boyfriend, before stealing a kiss regardless on  the mouth. Maluma dismissed the night with the song “Cuatro babys” , getting right in with the corwd, leaving London's Latinas more than satisfied by bed time.
