Puerto Rican artist Ramón Ayala, known globally in secular music as Daddy Yankee, used the Latin Grammy stage in Las Vegas to deliver a public testimony of faith. Upon receiving the Person of the Year award honoring his three-decade career in urban music, the artist stated that knowing my best friend Jesus was what filled my soul the most before an audience of producers, musicians, and industry executives.

The award ceremony took place during a gala dinner in Las Vegas, Nevada, where Ayala received the trophy from singer Janet Jackson. In his acceptance speech, the musician recalled his modest beginnings in Puerto Rico, recording cassette tapes on the street while facing opposition from authorities who dismissed urban youth as criminals without a future.

Janet Jackson presented the Person of the Year honor to Ramón Ayala during the event in Las Vegas.
