the group adventure he marked a before and an after in bachata. Behind that success that the ‘hits’ titled ‘Obsession’, spent several years of unsuccessful attempts.
Anthony Santos, in his usual TBT Thursdays, made an interesting reflection in which he recalled that he and his cousins and friends nearly “throw in the towel.”
It was the album “Els tinellers” from which the hits “Trampa d’amor” and “La novel·leta” can be seen when Romeo was only 14 years old and Lenny Sants two more years in a photo of cover of the disc, dressed like bachateros of the 80 and in which innocence sprouted.
“In this photo I was 14 years old. I didn’t understand the music business. We recorded this record (Love Trap, The Tinsmiths) with much enthusiasm, but very little experience. I think we sold 4 copies, the ones Lenny, Mikey, Henry and I bought. Lol, We are disappointed by the failure of this production, to the point that we almost threw in the towel. We didn’t understand how such a Vacano record (my lyrics) hadn’t stuck, “Romeo began.
The artist went on to say that about two years later they met a visionary, the gentleman Julius Caesar, “Which assured us that all these songs from my own hand, Lenny’s musical arrangements, my cousin Henry’s hearts, and Mikey’s style, if they were bacanas.”
He said the problem was poor quality recordings and poor advertising and marketing, among other things. “
The “Centavito” performer confessed that years later, most of the songs recorded in “Els Tinellers” they stuck and he added that it just wasn’t the time, but that there was no reason to stop.
“But after hitting as Adventure under the direction of Julio Cesar and the label Premium Latin Music, The most important factor we left unnoticed, was not inexperience, or that we needed a record label. It was God’s time is perfect, ” said the artist in his writing posted on Instagram.
It ended as follows: “Today at the age of 39 I have other ideals. My perspective is that our faith in God, ours perseverance, discipline and dedication, are the factors that will truly determine our future. Look for your genius talent, because we all have one (Look for your great talent, because we all have one “.
Time proved them right because they became one of the most popular groups in tropical music. Proof of this is that the Billboard chart places “Obsession” among the top 50 Latin songs in history.
They also toured much of the world in mass concerts and Romeo Santos, after parting ways with Aventura, has released four record productions “Formula Vol. 1”, “Formula Vol. 2”, “Golden” and “Utopia.”
