Tito El Bambino Unveils New Album 'La Gente del Patrón'

Puerto Rican reggaeton veteran Tito El Bambino is releasing his new album, 'La Gente del Patrón', this Thursday. In this album, he showcases 'all the elements of the evolution' of the urban movement in collaboration with genre pioneers. 'The album has all the elements of the evolution of classic reggaeton with updated touches, but with the rhythmic essence of what reggaeton was like when we started the movement,' El Bambino explained. The 44-year-old artist brought together several reggaeton pioneers, such as Chencho Corleone and Lito MC Cassidy, as well as other stars like Wisin, Jowell, Randy, Arcángel, Zion, Farruko, and Ñengo Flow for 'La Gente del Patrón'. Previously, after the release of 'A la reconquista', the duo split up, and each artist began a solo career. The idea to create an album mixing the Jamaican and Panamanian rhythms of old reggaeton with modern sounds came to him when he noticed younger audiences connecting with his older hits during his concerts. 'This album is for my people, for those who dream, fight, and never forget where they come from,' emphasized Tito, who was raised in Carolina, a city near San Juan known as 'the cradle of reggaeton'. Throughout the album, Tito El Bambino builds an intimate portrait of his world, where the neighborhood life, discipline, faith, and determination that led him to become one of the genre's most influential figures converge. 'The audience deserves the best, respect, greatness,' said the artist with a nearly three-decade career. 'The key for an artist to succeed is to keep going relentlessly and to be consistent,' he added. His hit 'Siente el boom' was ranked by Billboard as the 38th best reggaeton song of all time, and the singer was named one of the 100 greatest Latin artists of the 21st century. 'Wherever we go, we go with a legacy of respect, not to play games,' Tito El Bambino concluded.
