Romeo Santos In The USA
Romeo Santos has added more than a dozen U.S. gigs to his schedule to go along with his previously announced engagement at New York City’s Yankee Stadium. Presales for most dates begin this week.
The King of Bachata just put out Formula Vol. 2, the No. 1 Latin album in the country, which happens to include the No.1 Latin song, “Odio.” The track, which has enjoyed seven weeks on the Latin songs chart, features Drake.
Santos’ PR reps point out that Formula Vol. 2 “is the strongest debut of any Latin album in the last eight years and has now exceeded platinum level sales in just its second week at No. 1.”
Released in February, Formula Vol. 2 peaked at No. 5 on the overall Nielsen SoundScan albums chart. The LP marks Santos’ second solo album.
