Musical career
With about 35 years of musical career, he is one of the most transcendent merengueros in the Dominican Republic.

His song "Palabritas" entered the

In 2019, he performed his first Christian song with Luigui López, with the musical production of
Josué Guzmán.[6] In an interview with Alofoke Radio Show, Santiago Matías asked him about the scar on his forehead, so he explained what happened, which, he says, was something supernatural.[7] In 2021, he released "Que pena", with which he announced that he was preparing his musical album entitled "Mi Regreso".[8]
