What do you think RedOne means when he refers to Jennifer Lopez as a "global artist?" Is any person, or any kind of music, ever global? What about her Puerto Rican heritage? What about the story that links the melody to several places: France, Brazil, and Bolivia, among others? How can something be both "from somewhere" and "global" at the same time?

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

RedOne describing Jennifer Lopez as a global artist most likely has a lot to do with her Puerto Rican heritage, because there´s a recurrent reference to the importance of the Latin ingredient when working with Lopez in his speech. It´s not that any person, or any kind of music, can be global, but only those that can be linked to different places, like a melody that overcomes national frontiers and can be linked to different countries.

Every person and cultural expression is from somewhere, but only those that can have a powerful effect on different places, and even in different cultures, can be considered as global.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question refers to the article titled "Jennifer Lopez's 'On The Floor' will be 'a big one,' producer Redone predicts," by Jocelyn Vena.
