Prince Royce Corazón sin cara http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLwZdh1xXFY

¿Quién es Prince Royce? Geoffrey Royce Rojas was born May 11th, 1990 into a humble but very close-knit family in the Bronx, New York. This 21 year-old sensation is responsible for introducing the genre of bachata to a worldwide mainstream audience who had never been exposed to it and reaching unprecedented success in the Latin music industry. His initial exposure to bachata came from his parents, who are both from the land of the bachata, the Dominican Republic. “They always instilled a strong sense of cultural identity and pride so I grew up listening to what all the other young people were into, hip hop, R&B, and pop, but also really loving bachata,” he explains. “I just never expected that I would ultimately launch my career within that genre.” Royce’s rendition of “Stand By Me” became the first bachata song ever to be played on mainstream (Pop and R&B) radio in the United States. The video of the song has been viewed more than five million times on YouTube alone and has helped the artist when numerous awards. His follow-up single “Corazón Sin Cara” fared even better, shooting up to #1 on Billboard’s Latin songs chart , #1 on the tropical songs chart, #1 on the urban chart and #2 on the pop songs chart. The young artist recently completed a sold-out US Tour. He is currently touring with Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull, and will be coming to Rosemont, Illinois (in Chicago) on October 1st.

Prince Royce Prince Royce’s talent as a composer, singer and actor in both Spanish and English, make him a triple threat . . . a gifted young man, poised to become a major force in the entertainment industry. So how does this young artist react to his sudden rise to fame? In typical Prince Royce-style, he takes it in stride, exuding confidence and humility. “I had envisioned this a long time ago so it feels right and very normal. I always had faith, almost a feeling of certainty that this would happen as long as I worked hard enough and focused on my music . . . now the overwhelming feeling is one of gratitude,” he says smiling. Well on his way to fulfilling his dreams, Prince Royce says that one of his missions in life is to encourage others to do the same. “I hope to inspire many young people to always remain positive and strive for their dreams. I want to be the kind of artist that is able to touch people’s hearts through my lyrics, so that before I leave this world I am able to make a positive difference the lives of others”.

What is bachata? Bachata is a genre of music that originated in the Dominican Republic in the early 1900s. It became popular in the countryside and the rural neighborhoods of the Dominican Republic. Its subjects are often romantic; especially prevalent are tales of heartbreak and sadness. The typical bachata group consists of five instruments: lead guitar, rhythm guitar, electric bass guitar, bongos and güira.

“Corazón sin Cara” letras Royce 

 Y ya me contaron Que te acomplejas de tu imagen Y mira el espejo Que linda eres sin maquillaje Y si eres gorda o flaca Todo eso no me importa a mí Y tampoco soy perfecto Sólo sé que te quiero así Y el corazón no tiene cara Y te prometo que lo nuestro Nunca va a terminar Y el amor vive en el alma Ni con deseos sabes que nada de ti va a cambiar Prende una vela, rézale a Dios Y dale gracias que tenemos ese lindo corazón 
 Prende una vela, pide perdón Y por creer que tu eres fea te dedico esta canción Ladies, you already know, Royce 
Too strong! 

 Y si eres gorda o flaca Todo eso no me importa a mí Tampoco soy perfecto Sólo sé que yo te quiero así Y el corazón no tiene cara 

 Y te prometo que lo nuestro Nunca va a terminar Y el amor vive en el alma Ni con deseos sabes que nada de ti va a cambiar Nadie es perfecto en el amor Ay seas blanquita, morenita, no me importa el color Mirame a mi, mirame bien Aunque tenga cara de bonito me acomplejo yo tambien Y si eres gorda o flaca 
 Todo eso no me importa a mí 
 Tampoco soy perfecto 
 Sólo sé que yo te quiero así 

 Sentimiento 
c'mon 

 Y el corazón no tiene cara 
 Y te prometo que lo nuestro 
 Nunca va a terminar 
 Y el amor vive en el alma 
 Ni con deseos sabes que nada de ti va a cambiar 

 Sincerely, Royce
