The singer/songwriter also performed his hit song “Corazon Sin Cara” to a packed American Airlines Arena as well as a national live television audience.
“This is a dream come true and I owe it to my beautiful fans, my record label and all those who have believed in me,” expressed Royce upon winning his third award.
