(Cover) - EN Showbiz - RedOne says Enrique Iglesias appeals to a global audience.

The music star has been producing and writing for the singer since 2007. RedOne, real name Nadir Khayat, says that despite Enriques Spanish roots, he feels the urge to promote the stars sound to the rest of the world.

Enrique is not necessarily Latin as hes from Spain but he has this swagger. [He makes] you want to do something thats global, he said in an interview with Vibe magazine.

The producer worked with Enrique on his 2010 hit I Like It, which featured rapper Pitbull. RedOne says it was easy to create a big production for the 35-year-old hunk.

Thats what we came up with I Like It, which gives him a big sound. It starts with the song, then a global melody, and then lyrical phonics that are easy for the listener to connect to. I never stop looking for that big sound, he added. (C) Cover Media
