Dominican urban music singer Emanuel Herrera Batista, known as El Alfa, released his fourth studio album “Sabiduría”. In this extensive album of 14 songs, defined by the artist as "the best thing I've done in my whole artistic career ", the singer tries to reflect his personal and professional maturity. There, he plays different musical styles, and shows the aspiration to extend his music to the American market.

In a public presentation where he appeared with a new look, in which her long and straight black hair stood out – instead of the iconic braids-, he commented that “making an album is about expressing to the world as an artist not only your musical maturity, but also as a human". After the release of his previous albums "Disciplina", "El hombre" and "El androide", the popular singer asked the public to continue supporting new talents of urban genres.

“Sabiduría” received the title from the very meaning of the word. For El Alfa, each of his previous albums has been the representation of his own artistic career. “From the man who understood that discipline would be his livelihood, to the one who today has the wisdom to make his dreams come true,” he clarified.

Talented producers participated in the creation of the album. The list includes Chael Producing, who was in charge of the hit "La mama, la Mama"; the Dominican La Nota; and Mauro and Lenier put their Cuban talent from Miami.

Along with the release of the album, the Dominican also premiered the video clip for "Máquina de Dinero", which stages the great leap he experienced in his career. It includes the participation of the American rapper French Montana, and Braulio Fogón and Kaly Ocho from the Dominican Republic, two of the greatest representatives of urban music in the Caribbean country.

 

In the list of collaborations, "Sabiduría" features Lil Pump, Lenier, T.Y.S., Valentino, Farina and El Mayor Clásico. With the latter, El Alfa released the first single from the album, called “Galapin”.

For the singer, his country exported dembow, a genre that now everyone wants to replicate. "The Dominican Republic has become the joy of the world," he boasted.

He also probed to be more leisurely and thoughtful. Proof of this is his willingness to cooperate with El Mayor Clásico, with whom he had fierce musical rivalries in the past.

His achievements have recently led him to collaborate with Daddy Yankee on his farewell album "Legendaddy", a reference whom El Alfa considers an idol and an example to follow. According to him, the legendary reggeaton singer told him that "I am surprised with everything you have done."
