MIAMI (March 6, 2020) – Two legendary Puerto Rican artists – the renowned tropical sonero Víctor Manuelle and the influential rapper Wisin – make musical alchemy on their new track “Boogaloo Supreme.” This single is available today from all digital-music outlets, while the video can be enjoyed on Víctor’s YouTube channel.
The title of this song, which is written by Víctor, pays tribute to the Latin rhythm that became an international phenomenon in the 1960s. Fusing African-American R&B with tropical influences, the boogaloo arose from Latino barrios in New York and made history in American popular music.
In order to re-create the era, Víctor and Wisin journeyed to Miami’s Flamingo Theater Bar, where in-the-know audiences catch some of Latin music’s most important artists in an intimate setting. Directed by Fernando Lugo, whose credits include Víctor’s previous video “Mala y Peligrosa,” the visuals of this video showcase a choreography with over 15 dancers who are dressed to fit the era’s style.
Wisin’s flow and pop-music’s characteristic synthesizers mix perfectly with Víctor’s tropical soneo and the boogaloo’s signature brass instrumentation.
The two-time Latin GRAMMY®-winner Víctor Manuelle has always been an important ambassador of tropical music, while staying at the forefront of fusing his style with pop rhythms ever since 2003 when he released his groundbreaking track “Ay Amor” featuring Héctor y Tito.
Bringing together generations and cultures, Víctor Manuelle and Wisin delight us with “Boogaloo Supreme”.
Recently announced, Victor Manuelle is a finalist for Premios Billboard 2020 in the Best Tropical Album category.
