El Alfa on His El Mejor Del Planeta Tour: ‘At a Show Level, I Have No Comparison’

Written by on August 30, 2024

El Alfa will soon hit the road for his 2024 U.S. trek “El Mejor Del Planeta,” which translates to “the best on the planet.” 

The 16-city stint, presented by Loud and Live, kicks off Sept. 12 at Mesa, Arizona, and wraps Dec. 8 in Fairfax, Virginia. In between, he will make pit stops in Chicago, Atlanta and Miami, to name a few. 

“Making dembow, putting people to dance and having fun, we’re the best at that,” El Alfa tells Billboard. “At a show level, El Alfa has no comparison. Whoever goes to one of my concerts, repeats. It’s a lot of fun. When El Alfa is at an arena, the arena moves a lot because of everyone jumping at the same time. It’s an unforgettable experience.”

Ahead of his U.S. tour, the Dominican artist is enjoying the viral success his single “Este” is having—a catchy dembow with playful lyrics about “this or that.” 

“It’s hard for urban music to have success right now […] I had gone about 12 months without having a strong hit like I do now,” he admits. “I’m enjoying the process and seeing how the industry is changing. I’m completely happy.” 

With hits such as “Este,” “4K,” “Singapur,” and “La Mamá de la Mamá,” El Alfa has managed to become one of the most successful Latin artists on TikTok, but he assures he releases music without an actual budget or strategy plan. It’s all been organic. “I just do music so that everyone else can dance. I do things from the heart,” he notes. 

Currently, the artist born Enmanuel Herrera is making the rounds with “Pararara” in collaboration with Chimbala. He also teased future collabs with artists from Mexico and Argentina, because “nowadays what is working is the freshness and genuineness with which a song is made,” he notes.
