Romeo Santos and Prince Royce have achieved a new international success with the song "Dardos," certified Gold in Spain and currently sitting at #1 on Spotify's Top Songs chart in that territory. "Dardos" is part of "Better Late Than Never," the most recent joint production by both artists, reaffirming their global impact and their standing as undisputed references in Latin music internationally.

In this context of success, Romeo Santos and Prince Royce are preparing for the start of their "Mejor Tarde Que Nunca" tour, which will begin on April 1 in the United States and continue later through Europe, bringing their music to international stages and thousands of followers around the world.

The Success of "Dardos"

The Gold certification in Spain represents significant commercial success in a European market that's historically been strong for Latin music but selective about which artists break through. Reaching #1 on Spotify's Top Songs chart in Spain demonstrates that "Dardos" has connected with audiences beyond just the Spanish-speaking diaspora, appealing to local listeners as well.

"Dardos" comes from "Better Late Than Never," a collaboration that reunites two of bachata's biggest names for a full project rather than just a single track. The album title itself acknowledges the long-awaited nature of this partnership, with fans having requested a Santos-Royce collaboration for years.

The Upcoming Tour

The "Mejor Tarde Que Nunca" tour launching April 1 will give both artists the opportunity to perform the new material live while also drawing from their extensive individual catalogs. Starting in the United States before moving to Europe aligns with where their strongest fan bases are located, particularly in cities with large Latin American communities.

For Romeo Santos, this continues his track record of successful international touring, having previously sold out major venues worldwide. Prince Royce brings his own established touring presence, making the joint tour a significant event for bachata fans who've followed both artists' careers.

Their Standing in Latin Music

The announcement describes both artists as "undisputed references" in Latin music internationally, a positioning backed by their combined commercial success and influence on the bachata genre. Romeo Santos, as the former frontman of Aventura and a solo artist, has been instrumental in bringing bachata to mainstream audiences. Prince Royce emerged as part of a newer generation that built on that foundation, helping keep the genre relevant to younger listeners.

Their collaboration on "Better Late Than Never" represents a meeting of two different eras within bachata's modern evolution, with both artists maintaining relevance while the Latin music landscape has shifted significantly around reggaeton and Latin trap in recent years.
