Joseíto Mateo, The Latin Recording Academy's®
2010 Lifetime Achievement Award recipient, passed away today; but his
music and stage presence will continue to bring joy and fill the hearts
of many with the sounds of the beloved merengue rhythms. With an
outstanding career that began in the 1930s, his recognition grew beyond
the Caribbean, and his signature sounds enchanted international
audiences. His extensive career, spanning close to seventy years, became
an important cultural reference and a treasure of the Dominican
Republic. The Latin Recording Academy profoundly laments the passing of
Joseíto. Our thoughts are with his family, fans, and all of the
Dominican Republic. Merengue has lost one of its brightest stars today.
Gabriel Abaroa Jr.President/CEO
