In a historic first, Dominican urban music star Emanuel Herrera Bautista, better known as El Alfa (The Boss), filled the world-famous Madison Square Garden to the brim on the evening of Friday, 22 October 2021. The 20,000+ audience enjoyed an evening of 39 songs of Dembow, Merengue and more. During the staging of the Legend of Dembow World Tour, rapper El Alfa invited Dominican merengue star Fernando Villalona to the stage. Then followed Mark B, J Balvin, Farruko, Kiko El Crazy, Dj Adonis, Cherry Scom, Shelow Shaq, Axel Rulay and Tali Goya and many other Latin American music stars.
“First of all, thank God, then this beautiful audience that gave me all the love in the world. Starting today I swear to become a more humble person from the bottom of my heart. I swear and I will fulfill it ”, he promised excitedly.
“With great humility I want the Dominican Republic to dedicate this achievement to all of Latin America, which has many artists who have not yet achieved their dreams,” an emotional El Alfa told the sold-out crowd.
