And of course, <strong>nobody expected that the boy who was baptized as &#8220;El blanco moreno&#8221;<\/strong> in his family while singing <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/who-is-yung-beef-the-trapper-who-has-launched-5000-euros-in-the-center-of-madrid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">flamenco<\/a> would end up nominated for 24 Latin Grammys and winning a Goya with his records. In general, it is something very concrete and strange to expect from a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that started on <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/fotolog-history\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MySpace<\/a> (remember?) without any pretensions, but as soon as he began to show his songs on YouTube he rose to fame: &#8216;Solamente t\u00fa&#8217; got 180 million views. It was a foregone conclusion, and never better said: <strong>on February 1, 2011 he released &#8216;Pablo Albor\u00e1n&#8217;, his first album<\/strong>, and it became an immediate bestseller. It was followed by &#8216;Tanto&#8217; (2012), &#8216;Terral&#8217; (2014), the live &#8216;Tour Terral&#8217; (2016), &#8216;Prometo&#8217; (2017), &#8216;V\u00e9rtigo&#8217; (2020) and &#8216;La cuarta hoja&#8217; (2022).

For example, he will pass through Bilbao, Barcelona, Valladolid, A Coru\u00f1a, Cuenca, Puigcerd\u00e1 or Oporto, playing at the M\u00fasica en Grande, SOM, Cap Roig and Concert Music festivals.

At the rate he is going, he will already be preparing a new album for 2024 and will continue with a tour that is characterized by having bigger stages and being much more spectacular than in the past.
