Prince Royce released his self-titled debut album two years ago. Certified Triple Platinum by the RIAA in the U.S. and Puerto Rico and Quadruple Platinum in Chile, the album collected an endless list of honors and awards. Royce has received two Latin GRAMMY nominations, seven Premio Lo Nuestro Awards, 12 Premios Juventud Awards and 12 Latin Billboards. He was the artist with the most No. 1s on Billboard’s 2011 “Year End Charts.” Royce collaborated with Mexican super group Maná and reggaeton icon Daddy Yankee and has toured with Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull.

Prince Royce arrived on the music scene with authentic bachata stylings. Royce’s Dominican background and soulful qualities of the young man’s voice catapulted him into stardom. His single “Stand By Me” became the first bachata song ever to be played on mainstream radio in the U.S., bringing Latin rhythms even closer to American culture.

Now, the singer is ready to further cement his reputation with Phase II, which is his second album of shimmering bachata soundscapes and heartfelt Latin ballads with a hint of mariachi. Phase II, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Albums chart and has remained in the top five ever since, will continue expanding Prince Royce’s reputation as one of the most talented young voices in new millennium Latin pop. Interestingly, the singer has achieved this level of success remaining true to his cultural roots and the seductive strains of bachata.
