The best part about Romeo is his humility; he is a superstar but still he’s right now touring DR offering 15 concerts for those fans who always supported him from the beginning but were never able to afford a ticket for one of his concerts.

60 thousand? There were over 85+ thousand fans in that stadium, and he even broke a record. Don't downplay him.


Edit: At least you guys got the "music legend" part right.

When she said “ he may not be in your playlist “ I thought to myself damn ... half my music is his songs 😂😂.

No one outside of the US uses LatinX this coming from a Latino

[Linx]

I’m loving all these cancellations of the term “Latinx”. It’s “LATINO” PERIOD

[mariaelenacruz]

Yes he is the king, and it wasn’t 60, 000.00 fans it was more like over 80, 000.00, and we the Romeistas will always show up

They shouldn't be surprised Latin music is the best music, especially bachata

[paulkersey]

I'm Chinese and while not a native Spanish speaker or Latino, I will say I know Santos and Aventura is unbelievable. His music, voice, talents, are unreal.

[guillermofernandez]

Romeo is like Michael Jackson he writes all his songs and for other artists too

[needmorezen]

Santos is one of my absolute favorites. He was my introduction to Spanish music and now it's mostly what I listen to. Latin music makes me SO happy and helped me get through a dark period in my life.

The best of Latin America. A Dominican pride 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴 the best

[miguelpenaloza]

I was a teenager when I first heard "cuando volveras" "obsecion" those were the days.

[Pettite]

Respect Spanish language, there’s not such a thing like “latinx”

[oscarpatxot]

So they reuploaded this because all the negative comments... Okey. Anyway. I'll say it again anyway. As a Dominican myself and Latino. Using Latinx is just offensive to our beautiful and perfect spanish language. Any native Spanish speakers agree with me?

[DLuzElAngelMusikal]

He doesn't identify himself as Latinx so why would you?

[KVMTeeVee]

What the hell is a Latinx? He a latino you weirdos

[kryminalistycznie]

How come when he speaks he sounds so harsh but when he sings is like an angel coming down from heaven?

[bellelyndominguez]

My baby, my love, mi negro bello🥰😍😍 the real King of Bachata! We’re so proud of you here 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴 love you!

[Mellajara]

I’m so proud of him and what he’s done🥺 he’s amazing. Dominicanos pa riba🇩🇴🙌🏼
