Their self-titled debut album, released by Sony International, featured the hit singles "Mamasota" and "Sin Un Beso Suyo." After two weeks in the U.S. market, Mamajuana sold 20,000 copies. ~ Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide

Band History:
Mamajuana' was 2001 Best Dominican New Artist, nominated to 2002 Premios Lo Nuestro Univision for Best Tropical Group and Pre-nominated to 2004 Grammy awards.
Mamajuana is the first Dominican Band to ever perform in China.

Of the musical genre of merengue and Latin pop, Mamajuana is one of the most innovative, attractive and exciting Dominican bands of our time. The idea is conceived by Eddi Gonzalez, director and leader of the group, who, with his creativity and composing style, is able to arrange and produce merengue in order to open new frontiers for this classical Caribbean genre to the entire world. More than a merengue band, Mamajuana is a musical concept that transports us to ethnic legacy. Mamajuana is a song to our ancestors with a mixture of funny, contemporary, romantic and sensual lyrics.
Mamajuana combines a variety of hypnotic rhythms brought from the rich and diverse "Afro-Caribbean" culture that exists in the Dominican Republic.


Mamajuana is backed by a 7 piece orchestral powerhouse of brasses, percussions, drums, keyboards, bass, and guitar. The vocals are performed by a three talented young and attractive singers, unleashing an unforgettable entertainment experience.


The CD with 12 theme songs will hit the market under Karen Records and distributed internationally by Universal Music Latino.


With this, their second production, which carries the name "For Sale", Mamajuana showers us with a deep sense of Caribbean roots.
