Born in the Bronx, NY, the 22-year old singer/songwriter/musician has exploded into the mainstream with his fresh, urban approach to traditional Bachata music, fusing Tropical Latin with contemporary R&B & Pop rhythms. Prince Royce’s self-titled debut album, released in 2010, has been certified double platinum by the RIAA, while garnering four 2011 Latin Billboard Awards and a 2010 Latin Grammy nomination in the “Best Tropical Contemporary Album” category.
Royce’s debut album includes his first single, a bilingual Bachata cover of the 1961 Ben E. King classic, “Stand By Me,” which Royce performed alongside King at the 2010 Latin Grammy Awards. Royce’s acclaimed version of “Stand By Me” not only reached #1 on the Billboard “Tropical Airplay” chart, as well as becoming the first Bachata song ever to be played on mainstream Pop & R&B radio in the U.S., with the companion video having been viewed over 15 million times on YouTube. Follow-up single "Corazon Sin Cara", written by Royce himself fared even better, reaching the #1 spot on Billboard's Latin Songs chart (of Latin music across all genres).
