Monchy & Alexandra are one of bachata's hottest duos, and their steamy romantic exchanges undoubtedly set them apart from the competition. The pair got their start in the Dominican Republic in the '90s, but their runaway success hinged on American audiences, who made them instant stars with their first single in '01. The group went on to top the Billboard Latin Tropical Airplay chart, pick up a Latin GRAMMY® nomination, and collaborate with Don Miguelo and Álvaro Torres before splitting, for reasons unknown, in '08.
