Premios Quiero


The Premios Quiero are awards presented annually by the Argentine television channel Quiero música en mi idioma, dedicated to broadcasting music videos. The awards recognize audiovisual artistic excellence in Spanish-language music through public voting.
Since their inception, the awards have been broadcast as a special television program, typically hosted by two presenters from the channel. Winners are featured in videos expressing their gratitude for the recognition. The statuette is characterized by being an uppercase "Q", representing the logo of the channel that broadcasts the awards, placed on a base featuring a plaque with the name of one of the awarded categories.
