<description><![CDATA[With his long hair and boyish good looks, Elvis Crespo has captured the tropical music crown with his multiplatinum "Suavemente" (Smoothly) in 1998. A Nuyorican (Puerto Rican born in N.Y.C.) who chooses to sing Merengue (which originates from the Dominican Republic), Crespo represents the new urban Latino who has transformed a traditional folk rhythm into a new, hip style. As the lead singer of the teen group Grupo Mania, Crespo was a Latino pop star by age twenty-two. Several years later he ventured off on his own, just as the tropical music scene was achieving unprecedented crossover success. His smooth, natural voice lends itself well to his catchy original compositions. A constant presence on Spanish-language television (often performing before large crowds of ecstatic Latina girls) this Latin Elvis will continue to dance across the tropical charts.

<description><![CDATA[Like many great singers, Puerto Rico's Olga Tanon had identified her profession by the age of four; her story since is one of struggle and determination. After vanquishing a painful shyness that made public performance almost impossible, Tanon's 1992 solo debut went gold, thanks in no small part to her powerful, husky vocal delivery and good looks. Tanon's second album went double platinum, and she hasn't looked back since. She's earned a slew of awards, including Billboard, Grammy, and Latin Grammy nods, and gained a fan base that extends from Latin America to the U.S. and Europe. Fans dubbed Tanon the Queen of Merengue in 1994, but her repertoire is diverse, encompassing ballads, salsa, rock and pretty much anything that catches her fancy. She's worked with top-notch songwriters in the Latin Pop world, recording an album of ballads penned by Marco Antonio Solis and singing songs by Rudy Perez, among others. Versatile and sweet without being saccharine, she is also, naturally, the pride of Puerto Rico: the Puerto Rican Senate even dubbed November 9th "La Dia de Olga Tanon."

<description><![CDATA[Massively popular in his native Dominican Republic, Juan Luis Guerra has achieved crossover success worldwide with his sophisticated mix of tropical dance styles. After attending the prestigious Berklee School of Music, he returned home and formed vocal harmony group 440 that earned a reputation for sophisticated arrangements and precision tuning. He later added elements of the traditional ballad style known as "bachata," mixing it with rapid Merengue rhythms propelled by a two-headed drum called a "tambora." By incorporating African harmony and Caribbean melodies into a mix replete with saxophones, electric guitars, percussion and keyboards, he has produced a compelling hybrid of contemporary Latin music over his lengthy career. Revered for his lyricism, he has been known to drive people to tears and outrage politicians with his social commentary. By the 1990s, Guerra was cranking out global hits and expanding his musical range to include African guitar and Haitian rhythms, all the while maintaining his musical integrity.

<description><![CDATA[Grupo Mania's 2001 release, <i>Mania 2050</i>, opens with a bit of Breakbeat fancy, but don't be fooled. When this Puerto Rican brother band gets going, they rock the hardcore Merengue their fans demand. This is where heartthrob Elvis Crespo got his start, but the Serrano brothers don't suffer without him. After Crespo left in 1995, the band saw their 1998 release, <I>Dinastia</i>, nominated for a Grammy. This is essential Caribbean dance music: high, bright horns punctuate unbelievably tight grooves, and the harmonized backing supports an unstoppable, understandably hoarse lead singer.

<description><![CDATA[This prefab Dominican merengue group may not please purists with their hyper-driven dance music, but they've lit up clubs across Central America and the Caribbean. Part of their charm stems from their rampant plundering of other styles: hip-hop, reggae, and meren-house, for starters. In fact, they're best described as a tropical pop group whose main aim is to please.

<description><![CDATA[Singing humorous and lustful songs in Spanish with the occasional English phrase, this very popular Merengue band energizes the tradition with heavier beats and an attitude that stems from contemporary urban culture. When Oro Solido (Solid Gold) shout "Mambo!" the saxophones spark a rhythmic burst.

<description><![CDATA[Proyecto Uno started as a straight-ahead Merengue band, but gradually they absorbed the urban dance sounds of New York City, including House and Salsa. Guest singers include bilingual rappers, Dancehall reggae growlers and freestyle vocalists, who have all helped them cross over to mainstream dance enthusiasts.

<description><![CDATA[The brothers Rosario have a storied career as one of the longest-running merengue bands in the business. The group originated in 1978 in the Dominican Republic under the direction of pianist and musical director Pepe Rosario. When Pepe passed away soon after the group formed, the 14-piece orchestra was thrown into disarray for several years. They ultimately reunited and recorded again, and the 1980s saw a run of hits that began to garner the group an international reputation. The band issued greatest hits collections in the early '90s, and that might have been the end of the story. It wasn't. Los Hermonos Rosario have continued to chart into the 21st century thanks to an updated image and the high-quality musicianship that comes with over two decades of musical experience. Marked by strong ensemble singing and seamless orchestration, this is one war-horse that still isn't showing its age.
