Grammy Award-winning artist, Pitbull, returned to El Paso on Wednesday, July 20th for The Bad Man Tour, and brought a special guest along with him. Prince Royce opened up for Pitbull with his Latin love songs ‘Las Cosas Pequeñas’ and ‘Corazón Sin Cara,’ followed by his covers of ‘Stand by Me’ by Ben E. King and ‘Earned it’ by The Weeknd. The crowd undoubtedly swooned over Royce’s performance, as the choreography was simple, yet smoothly executed. His suave vocals definitely won everyone over. He also excited the audience with playful gestures such as a wink every now and then, and throwing some lucky fans roses from stage.

Prince Royce certainly hyped the crowd up for Pitbull, or Mr. 305 as he often referred to himself as throughout the night. Pitbull’s performance wasn’t as sappy as Royce’s, however, since he’s known for bringing the party to any show. Mr. 305 had the crowd dancing with his songs such as ‘Don’t Stop the Party’ and ‘El Taxi.’ His back up dancers were perfectly on beat and helped Pitbull pump up the crowd throughout the show.

All in all, Prince Royce and Pitbull’s performance in El Paso definitely had the Don Haskins swooning and dancing all night.
