NEW YORK, May 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Puerto Rican
superstar Don Omar, puts an end to the rumors in an exclusive
interview on the #1 radio station in the
United States, Mega 97.9FM in New
York property of Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (SBS)
(Nasdaq: SBSA). Don Omar spoke with
Alex Sensation host of the most-listened to radio show "La Mega
Mezcla con Alex Sensation" on MEGA 97.9FM in New York City, which is broadcast
simultaneously in South Florida on
El NUEVO ZOL 106.7FM.
The artist confirmed exclusively during his interview that
"The Kingdom" Daddy Yankee vs Don Omar tour
will in fact take place on July
30th in New York
City, August 6th in
Miami and August 27th in Los Angeles, among other cities.
Rumors stemmed after Don Omar
supposedly left the stage at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, where he was appearing alongside
Daddy Yankee for a performance. Don
Omar's actions could have been due to some differences that
began during the recent Billboard Latin Music Awards, where both
artists seemed somewhat distant. According to international media,
rumor was that Don Omar had his back
facing Daddy Yankee.
"I feel that I have the responsibility to my fans to set
the record straight and explain what really went down that night. A
lot of people thought I had left Vegas and that I left Daddy Yankee
stranded on stage, but that's not the truth. The fact is that
Las Vegas is the entertainment
capital of the world and anyone who's had the opportunity to see a
show in Vegas, knows that they all end at 11:30 at night, because
for casinos their business is to have people gamble… so the venue
turned on the lights, and when I saw that I said my goodbyes to the
crowd," confirmed Don
Omar during his radio interview with Alex Sensation on Mega
97.9FM.
"The Vegas show was delayed an hour and a half, things
that happen in production, that have nothing to do with Daddy
Yankee and have nothing to do with Don
Omar, and don't have anything to do with any
animosities between me and Daddy Yankee," affirmed
Don Omar. "I don't control
production, and I have nothing to do with them turning the lights
on during the show, my show did not happen due to time
constraints."
Félix Cabrera Presenta and LaMusica production teams have
confirmed the tour dates for "The Kingdom"
Daddy Yankee vs Don Omar. The tour kicks off on
July 30th at Madison
Square Garden in New York City,
then on August 6th at the
American Airlines Arena in Miami
and to Los Angeles on August 27th, as we all want to crown
the real King of Reggaetón. The tickets for these huge concerts go
on presale beginning June
9th on
www.ticketmaster.com.
"The Kingdom":
Daddy Yankee vs Don Omar, is one of the
most anticipated tours in the Hispanic market. The two stars joined
forces for 60 stops and two years of international tour on
December 5, 2015 in San Juan Puerto Rico.
Daddy Yankee and Don Omar have
both taken reggaetón to mainstream and the general market. Among
the two, they have 11 number one hits on the Billboard Latin Album
charts, 28 top 10 hits on Hot Latin Songs chart, and more than 4
billion views combined in their VEVO
channels. Don Omar has had innovative hits with
"Danza Kuduro" and "Virtual Diva," which have transcended culture
boundaries. Likewise, Daddy Yankee has an arsenal of hits
beginning with the famous "Gasolina" to his most recent single
"Vaivén" and "Shaky Shaky," which are moving up the charts.
After four sold-out concerts in San
Juan, Puerto Rico,
Daddy Yankee and Don Omar are prepared for
the US leg of their tour.
