Tipico Urbano: Contemporary Merengue Mix

The historic Merengue Tipico of the 19th-century Dominican Republic becomes cutting-edge current via the New York-born and based band Tipico Urbano, who update this classic style, sometimes referred to as perico ripiao, with a shot of R&B and reggaeton. Also known as T-Urban, the guys are of Dominican descent and made a splash with their first single "I'm in Love With the Coco." Come out and catch the hot Latin beat at Subrosa in the heart of New York's famed Meatpacking District.
