Proyecto Uno (English: Project One) is a Dominican-American merenrap group which helped popularize a style of music which blend merengue with rap, techno, dancehall reggae and hip-hop music. The band was founded in New York Citys East Side in 1989 by Nelson Zapata. Originally formed as traditional merengue band, Proyecto Uno received recognition in the 1990s after incorporating modern Afro-American and North American music. The group won a Billboard latin Music Award , an Emmy award, and countless others.
In 1991 this 12" was serviced in the US to DJs and it did well with a variety of mixes, including an underground house (rave) mix that helped it cross over to radio. Call it hip house or latin house, it still moved dancefloors.
