I-95 Drive Home Mystery Artist [VIDEO]

Tonight’s mystery artist once said that his mother’s prayers for him worked because he is a good man. Any guess who our mama’s boy might be??

He was giving an interview to NPR last year while promoting the book he had written and dedicated to his mother. One of the world's most celebrated musicians and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame it is Carlos Santana. Now an international star with 10 Grammys and more than 100 million records sold he marvels how this all came from his childhood in a small Mexican town. His father, also a musician, was Santana's first teacher, but he really learned his craft playing on the street and in strip clubs in Tijuana.

In his new book, The Universal Tone: Bringing My Story to Light. He dedicates the book to his mother, Josefina saying: "I think she probably prayed for me more than anyone to keep me from getting lost," he says. "I dedicated it to her because she deserves to know that her prayers worked. I am a good man."

He added despite their fraught relationship, he thanks his mother for instilling a "will for excellence" early on in life. "My mom would say 'OK, we're poor, but we're not dirty and filthy, clean the house,' He told NPR . "She would say, 'What are you doing?' And if you say 'nothing,' 'I know! Make yourself useful. Don't just sit there like a lump. Do something.
