By the reckoning of the newest round of Latin Grammy nominees, announced Tuesday morning, Mexican American songwriter and producer Edgar Barrera is at the epicenter of the action in today's Latin music scene. Not only did Barrera garner the most nominations overall — with 13 nods — all three of the singers trailing him in this year's nominations have been his collaborators.
Those artists, who each nabbed seven nominations for the 24th annual Latin Grammy Awards, are three Colombian singers: Camilo, Karol G and Shakira.
