Origens
Villalona began singing in the early 1970s and saw his fame grow by the late 1970s, rising to become one of the Dominican Republic's most beloved merengue voices.
O som
His music is rooted in classic merengue, carried by a warm, commanding voice that works equally well on uptempo dance numbers and romantic material.
