Wisin & Yandel Won Best Urban Album at the Latin Grammy Awards



THE DYNAMIC DUO WAS AWARDED BY THE LATIN ACADEMY OF RECORDING ARTS & SCIENCES FOR THEIR ALBUM “LOS EXTRATERRESTRES”


Miami, FL (Friday November 14,2008) – Although the dynamic duo could not attend the 9th annual Latin GRAMMY® Awards, Wisin & Yandel’s presence was still felt with their greatest accomplishment to date. The duo won a Latin GRAMMY® for “Best Urban Album” for their multi-platinum album “Los Extraterrestres”. On top of their record breaking album sales and worldwide tour, these superstars can now call themselves Grammy award winners.

“We can’t get over the surprise. We are very happy with this award for which we have worked hard for the past 10 years. We thank God, our families, producers and the members of the Latin Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences. We want to share this with the rest of our Puertorican peers that were also nominated Alexis & Fido, Tego Calderon and Tito “El Bambino” – declared Wisin & Yandel.
