Modern Era of Boy Bands: CNCO

This week I wanted to write about one of my favorite things in the world: boy bands and concerts (I really miss them). Late '90s pop boy bands are my favorite. The in sync choreography. The outfits. I love it all. It has been almost 20 years since my all-time favorite, *NSYNC, released their last album (I'm still hoping they will reunite once more). Soon enough, One Direction took over the world. Over five years have gone by since they announced their hiatus. So while we wait for One Direction to tell us if they are ever getting back together or not (might be waiting awhile), I am here to tell you about one of the most popular boy bands in the newest generation. My current favorite: CNCO.



CNCO is a Latin American boy band formed by television show, "La Banda", created by Simon Cowell and produced by Ricky Martin. The members of the group are: Richard Camacho, Erick Brian Colón, Zabdiel De Jesús, Joel Pimentel and Christopher Vélez. They have been a boy band for a little over three years now, and have dominated Latin music with their sound of Latin pop and reggaetón with two albums under their belts.


Thanks to my sister, I discovered them about four years ago, but fell in love when they hit the stage at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on February 17, 2019. They showcased amazing harmonizing skills, synchronized choreographies, and complementary Dolce & Gabbana outfits. The energy they radiated was well-received by the audience. Everyone was up and dancing along to their catchy hits (especially when they brought out Latin superstar, Prince Royce). The perfect ingredients to a successful boy band. I truly can't wait until I can experience an artist step on stage again.


Now that you know more about CNCO, I hope this encourages you to check out the hottest Latin boy band of this generation. Check out one of my personal favorite live performances by CNCO, "La Ley"!

When I first saw your blog's title, I was interested and intrigued because I have heard of CNCO before. They performed with my favorite girl group, Little Mix, and collaborated on Reggaeton Lento. Because I wanted to learn more about CNCO, I enjoyed your blog. With the theme of your blog, I enjoy the throwback comments and your references. I also really liked your use of hashtags because this will allow your blog to connect with popular hashtags. I like boy bands for the same reason you do, but I am really into Korean boy bands. My favorite is Astro. If I had to recommend a suggestion for your blog, I would recommend some color or use of bolds and…
