Santo Domingo, Rep. Dom. – The young and talented salsa singer Richard Saoco, originally from Guarenas, Miranda, has had a successful media tour in Venezuela after the release of his new single “Nuestro Barrio”, produced by maestro Porfi Baloa. This release has opened the doors for Richard to appear on various television networks and renowned programs, consolidating his presence in the Venezuelan music scene.
The single “Nuestro Barrio” has allowed Richard Saoco to make his debut on important television networks such as Venevisión and Televen, where he has been received with great enthusiasm. His live performances and interviews on programs such as El Show Del Medio Día, Chekalo TV, Cocinando Con Amigos, and Sábado Sensacional have captured the attention of the public and the media, highlighting his talent and charisma.
Richard Saoco has been awarded the prestigious IPK Gold Award, a recognition that underlines his talent and dedication to music. This award is a testament to the positive impact Richard has had on the music industry and the lives of his fans.
“Nuestro Barrio” is a very salsa-like song with a unique and original flavor, written by Richard Saoco himself. The song is a tribute to the roots and traditions of Venezuelan neighborhoods, evoking memories of people having fun on the corners, friends playing bottle caps, marbles and flying kites. The lyrics of the song recall the guaguancós in the streets, where the elders played improvised percussion instruments with empty paint cans and broomsticks, creating a party.
The collaboration with Porfi Baloa as the song’s general producer has been fundamental to the success of “Nuestro Barrio.” In addition, the late maestro Héctor “Chispa” Hurtado, who was the number’s arranger, also left his mark on this production, contributing his talent and creativity. May God have him in his glory.
A Message of Pride and Resilience
For Richard Saoco, the word “neighborhood” has a deep and respectful meaning. Raised in a very humble working-class sector, Richard fondly remembers his childhood and adolescence, and tells it in this song. His message is clear: never feel ashamed of coming from a neighborhood. Richard gets emotional when talking about this song, as it brings back many beautiful memories, customs and traditions.
The single “Nuestro Barrio” is now available on all digital platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube. Fans can enjoy this new musical proposal and add it to their favorite playlists.
