Héctor Acosta broke out as the lead vocalist of one of the Dominican Republic’s top merengue acts, Los Toros Band, where he earned his nickname "El Torito," or “The Little Bull.” After releasing several Los Toros Band albums of merengue and bachata music, including their 1991 debut Se Soltaron los Toros and 1996’s El Mambo del Toro, Acosta left the group in 2006 and unveiled his debut solo album Sigo Siendo Yo later that year. His 2008 follow-up Mitad/Mitad reached No. 5 on the Billboard Tropical Albums chart behind lead single "Sin Perdón” and a collaboration with Romeo Santos. 2009’s Simplemente... El Torito and 2010’s Oblígame both peaked at a career-best No. 2 on the Tropical Albums chart. Acosta has received six Latin Grammy nominations throughout his career, including for his 2022 album Este Soy Yo.
