Wisin & Yandel are one of the most respetcted reggaeton duos in the genre’s history. After teaming up in the Nineties, they recently announced a tour called La Ultima Misión — their final one together.
Though each of the two members has had his own succesful, decades-long career, they’ve made magic together. Some of their biggest songs include reggaeton classics such as “Rakata,” “Sexy Movimiento,” and “Pam Pam.”
As part of La Ultima Misión, the artist took the stage at Madison Square Garden and performed for thousands of screaming fans.
The 26-city tour, which kicked off on Sept. 30 at Miami’s FTX Arena, has taken the artist across the U.S. as they perform some of the biggest hits.
Wisin & Yandel started the performance with a bang, starting things off with tons of stage flares, explosions, and flashing lights for a production worthy of their revered careers.
The audience spanned all ages and represented different parts of Latin America. Many fans from Wisin & Yandel’s native Puerto Rico brought giant flags and showed the island love during the performance.
The artists kicked off the night with “Ahora Es,” their hit from 2007 that soared up the charts.
Throughout the night, they played more from their arsenal of Number Ones: The whole arena sang back with them as they launched into “Noche de Sexo,” “Saoco,” “Mayor Que Yo,” and more.
In addition to their tour, the duo is planning to drop their final album, also called La Ultima Mision, which will feature highly anticipated collaborations with Rauw Alejandro, Jennifer Lopez, Prince Royce, and more.
“Our career as a duo has been blessed and successful,” Wisin told Billboard earlier this year. “We can’t predict the future but we’re very responsible for the brand and that’s what we want to do in this tour. We want our fans to remember the 2000s hits. More than a goodbye, it’s trajectory.”
Fans celebrated the decades of music and perreo Wisin & Yandel represent. Their last album, Los Campeones Del Pueblo “The Big Leagues from 2018, included “Reggaetón En Lo Oscuro,” which went five-times-platinum; “Chica Bombastic,” which went six-times-platinum; and “Ganas De Ti,” which went gold, platinum, and 22-times-platinum.
Wisin & Yandel’s career includes a Grammy award for their 2009 album La Revolución, and two Latin Grammys — Best Urban Song for “Abusadora” and Best Urban Music Album for Los Extraterrestres.
The concert featured Wisin & Yandel’s high-energy dancers, who amped up the crowd and elicited huge cheers from the audience.
“Wisin & Yandel is an established brand that with all the respect we deserve, we need to close this cycle how it should be,” Yandel said after announcing the tour earlier this year.
The guys closed the night with some of their most classic contributins to reggaeton. They performed “Rakata,” which helped reggaeton break at a global level, and “Algo Me Gusta En Ti,” a smash that spent 14 weeks on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart.
The duo is on track to break its own record by selling out 14 consecutive nights at El Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot in Deember. They first made history by selling out eight straight nights there in 2018.
Wisin & Yandel wrapped up the night after working through all their beloved hits. They’ll hit other major cities, including Montreal, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles before ending the tour in Puerto Rico.
