Alvarez told us at Crew Call about his inspiration for this Foreigner Continued: “I hope people can relate to it because it’s such a third world story. That’s where I come from. If you were born in the third world, for the better this is your reality, for the worse you will always do good when you grow up.”

“So, the narrative of young people being born into what they believe is the wrong place, where things around them feel like they’re falling apart and they just want to get out of there , they should look at their parents and…” Look: “I don’t want to end up like them.” That’s a third world reality.”
