Aventura
Aventura was started in '93 with Anthony "Romeo" Santos and his Henry Santos, Lenny Santos, and Max Santos. All of these dreamboats hailed from the Bronx and repped hard for the DR. Seriously, what girl wasn't jamming "Obsesion" religiously?!
Maná

Son By Four
Son By Four is a salsa music group from Puerto Rico, well known for their English U.S. pop hit "Purest of Pain (A Puro Dolor)." Seriously, the English and Spanish versions both make you weak in the knees.
Reik
C Note
Hailing from Orlando, FL, pop boy band C Note scored major success in 1999 with their debut album, Different Kind of Love. And why wouldn't they, just listen to those harmonies!
