His entire family consists of musicians, including tropical recording artists Edwin Rivera and younger sister Saned. Two other brothers, Ito and Jose, are professional instrumental musicians.[2] His parents, also musicians, inspired him to become a musician and as a child he would often accompany his mother Dominga, a singer, and father Edwin, a guitarist and director of Los Barones Trio, during their shows. In 1986, when he was 13 years old, he accompanied his father who was performing at a hotel in Isla Verde, San Juan. Frankie Ruiz, who was a guest at the hotel, appeared and sang a couple of songs with them and had his picture taken alongside Rivera. In 2003, this picture was used by Rivera to make the album cover for his tribute Canto a mi Idolo… Frankie Ruiz (‘I sing to my Idol… Frankie Ruiz’), who had died in 1998.[3] Singing career In 1988, Tommy Olivencia heard Rivera sing alongside his father and recommended that he sing solo. When Rivera was 16, his father made a demo and presented it to the CBS music department. They signed Rivera.[4] Rivera began to be known as “El Bebé de la Salsa” (the baby of salsa) after recording his first album, Empezando A Vivir, . This project generated the hit, De La Cabeza A Los Pies (“From Head to Toe”). His second album, Abriendo Puertas (‘Opening Doors’), produced the hit songs Esa Niña (‘That Girl’), Dime (‘Tell Me’), Nada Sin Ti(‘Nothing Without You’), and Como un Milagro (‘Like a Miracle’) became number one hits first in Puerto Rico, then among the Hispanic populations in the United States and finally across Latin America. His third album, Cuenta Conmigo (‘Count on Me’), won three Platinum Record awards in the United States, Puerto Rico, Venezuela and Colombia. It became the most-sold salsa album in history, a record previously held by Willie Colón,[5] and held the number-one spot in the Latin American Billboards for three consecutive months. Its hit songs included the Cuenta Conmigo, Me Estoy Enamorando (‘I’m Falling in Love’) and Casi Un Hechizo (Nearly A Charm). The number one hit for the album was Amores Como El Nuestro (written by Panamanian songwriter Omar Alfanno) (Love like ours) which is considered to be the best song by Rivera. Rivera was awarded two Premio Lo Nuestro Awards for “Singer of the Year” and “Album of the Year” and Sony Records presented him with three Crystal Awards.[6] The introduction of Amores Como El Nuestro has been sampled twice in hip hop, first by American East Coast hip hop duo Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz, also used as the introduction for their 1997 song “Deja Vu (Uptown Baby)“, and by Haitian rapper Wyclef Jean in his 2004 song “Dance Like This” from the soundtrack of Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights which would later become the worldwide number-one 2006 hit “Hips Don’t Lie” by Wyclef and Colombian-singer Shakira. The introduction of “Amores Como El Nuestro” can also be heard on MTV’s animated series Daria episode “Fair Enough’ of its second season. In 1993, he released Cara de Niño (‘Baby Face’) with ¿Qué Hay De Malo? (‘What’s Wrong About This?’), Cara de Niño, No Hieras Mi Vida as being major hits of the year. In 1994, as his popularity was rising, he released his first compilation album, Lo Nuevo y lo Mejor (The New and the Best), and contained the single hit Me Estoy Enloqueciendo Por Ti (‘I’m Going Crazy For You’). The following year, “Magia” was released with the self-titled album and Ahora Estoy Solo (Now That I’m Alone) In 1996, Rivera released “Fresco” and Una y Mil Veces (One Thousand and One Times) and Lloraré (I Will Cry) were the album hits. Ya No Soy El Niño Aquel was released in 1997. In 1999, Rivera recorded De Otra Manera (‘Another Way’), his first attempt at ballad music, which featured the bolero Ese (Him). Jerry sang the song with his father at the Roberto Clemente Coliseum in San Juan.[4] In 2000, Rivera recorded Para Siempre (‘Forever’). This was his last album on Sony Latin records.[4] In 2001, he released his self-titled album Jerry Rivera and the year after, he recorded Vuela Muy Alto (Fly High) which brought him a new fanbase all over Latin-America and the U.S., with the title track hit the top spot and the top 10 in many charts along with Herida Mortal (Mortal Wound). The following year he returned to his salsa roots and released Cantando A Mi Idolo… Frankie Ruiz (‘Singing to My Idol… Frankie Ruiz’), a tribute album to one of his idol Frankie Ruiz. The album gain him a Latin Grammy nomination, made up for the poor sales of his previous ballad albums, and his major album hit was Ruiz’s Mi Libertad featuring Voltio. Rivera played a small role in the movie I Like It Like That and appeared as himself in a Latin American soap opera titled Mi destino eres tu (‘You are my destiny’) which aired on Univision in the US during November 2005. Rivera has also appeared in various Banco Popular de Puerto Rico productions, including Al Compas de un Sentimiento (dedicated to the late Puerto Rican composer Pedro Flores) and Con la musica por Dentro. The same year, he released Ay Mi Vida (Oh My Life) which had received mixed reviews.[4] In 2007, he released Caribe Gardel, a tribute to Argentine singer, Carlos Gardel with Gardel’s Cuesta Abajo (Downhill) being one of the major salsa hits of the year. In 2011, he released El

Based in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, the group was founded by producers Gerardo Díaz, aka “El Toro,” and Juan Pablo Díaz. In 1989, they discovered Acosta, aka “El Torito,” who was then a vocalist in the group Los Gentiles from the city Bonao, and recruited him to serve as their lead singer in Los Toros Band. The group made its full-length album debut with Se Soltaron los Toros (1991). The album was a hit on the merengue scene and led to several more albums, including De Fiesta (1991) A Bailar (1992), Caliente (1994), and Formidables (1994). In addition to Acosta and arranger Henry Hierro, these early albums featured vocalists Indira Rubiera and Mayra Bello. By the mid-’90s, Los Toros Band had become one of the top merengue groups on the scene, and proper albums like Románticamente (1995), El Mambo del Toro (1996), and Raices (1997) were complemented by compilations like Estelares de los Toros Band (1997). Los Toros Band underwent a significant transformation at the end of the ’90s with the addition of vocalists Olvis García and Luis José Alcequiez on the albums Pasito Lento (1998), ¡Y No Hay Problema! (1999), and Toromanía (2000). A fourth vocalist, Robin Joel Vasquez, joined the group for Pa’ la Calle (2001), Indetenibles (2003), and En Vivo 2004 (2004). By the mid-2000s, however, Acosta had grown disgruntled with his situation in Los Toros Band and left for a solo career. He made his full-length solo debut with the hit album Sigo Siendo Yo (2006). The follow-up album, Mitad/Mitad (2008), was even more successful, spawning the smash hit single “Sin Perdón.”
