Tejano music legend Little Joe Hernandez was honored with a renamed street in his hometown of Temple, Texas.

The five time GRAMMY award winner with a musical career spanning over a half a century, will now have his legacy on display in his hometown as the city of Temple renamed Sixth Street as Little Joe Drive.

“It’s something I never expected,” Hernandez said. “I go to other cities and see the names of other artists and celebrities, but it never once crossed my mind that they would name a street after me.”

The Temple chapter of the League of United Latin American Citizens presented the renaming request Thursday to the City Council and the resolution was unanimously approved by the council.

“This to me means more than a personal recognition. It also speaks to the fact that Temple has made progress on race relations,” Hernandez said. “As a kid, I went through the segregation period, so I never dreamed anything like this could happen. I’m just totally honored and humbled by such an incredible recognition.”

The street will have a dual-name status of Little Joe Drive/South Sixth Street between East Central Avenue and East Avenue E. Property owners will still be able to operate under their current Sixth Street addresses.

Veronique-sobrevivire

Latin singing sensation Veronique Medrano released her mariachi track, “Sobreviviré,” from her sophomore album Mi Año Dorado.

“It’s been a year since the release of Mi Año Dorado and ‘Sobreviviré’ is an anthem of strength and power,” Veronique told Tejano Nation. “Mariachi has always been music that has expressed emotional strength and fire that a person possesses, whether it is at their best or at their worst of times.”

This original mariachi song was written by Veronique and arranged by Elio Positivo.

“This isn’t your typical mariachi song in the sense of style and lyrically it comes from a dark place filled with pain,” Veronique added. “Everyone has that point where the heartbreak and torment from a betrayal is so overwhelming that all you can do is scream out ‘Sobreviviré’ (I will survive).”

Veronique’s sophomore album Mi Año Dorado, which was part of Tejano Nation’s Top 10 Albums of 2016, is available at all digital platforms.
