El Alfa Talks Viral ‘ESTE’ Song & His ‘El Mejor del Planeta’ Tour | Billboard News
El Alfa has created several viral songs, including “4K” and his most recent, “ESTE.” The singer shares with Billboard how he creates his viral songs, what his fans can expect from his new “El Mejor del Planeta” tour, what it was like to work with Natti Natasha and more.
I want to know, Alfa, where the name for this tour came from.
Honestly, the name came from me and my team, but making Dembow, making people enjoy themselves and dance, we are the best at that.
That’s true. The impact you’ve had, in fact, I saw that you have many No. 1 songs on the Billboard charts, more than 20 songs in the Hot Latin Songs chart, so no doubt about it.
Right now, I have a song that’s very hot. Urban music is having a hard time finding success. You can have good placements on the charts, but making the public choose you and having your songs stick like before is hard. It has been 12 months since I had a song succeed as much as this one, but I am enjoying the process and seeing how the business continues to change. I am thrilled. I have just arrived from a tour in Europe which I started by opening for worldwide artists. My line up was for 7/7:30 PM and we finished closing the show at 11 PM. They thought I had to close it. El Alfa always does his best, so when things get a little uncomfortable on stage, I give everything I can because I always like to give my best.
Keep watching for more.
