Tito El Bambino has made his official comeback. The Puerto Rican urban singer, born Efraín David Fines Nevares, released “Pega, Pega” today (May 31).
The track is the first single of his forthcoming album El Bambino, due later this year.
“I took time for me and my family,” Fines Nevares tells Billboard by phone. “But I never left the studio. I was always recording and keeping myself in the music world.”
During the early days of reggaeton in Puerto Rico, Fines Nevares was part of the duo Hector & Tito, and eventually launched as a soloist. He went on to be known for great hits such as “Caile,” “Baila Morena,” “Siente El Boom,” “El Amor” and “Mi Cama Huele a Ti.”
