On October 13th, 2x Latin GRAMMY® Award-winning and 4x GRAMMY®-nominated superstar Rauw Alejandro kicked off the Latin American leg of his widely acclaimed Cosa Nuestra World Tour (promoted by Live Nation) with the first of three sold-out shows at the Movistar Arena in Santiago, Chile. His first performance since the September 26 release of his sixth studio album, Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0, Rauw took his spectacular, Broadway-inspired show to new heights as he debuted a ‘Capítulo 0’ section complete with fresh choreography and staging. The new section also included his live performance debut of  “Besito en la Frente” and “Guabansexx,” both of which hit No. 1 on the Hot Latin Pop Songs chart, as well as his first original salsa and bachata tracks “Callejón de los Secretos,” “Mirando Al Cielo” and “Silencio,” and more.

Revering the Caribbean as an eternal journey of rhythms, blood, and memory, Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0 debuted at No. 3 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums Chart to critical acclaim with outlets such as Pitchfork declaring that the “well-crafted” album features his best vocals to date and ELLE applauding its multi-generational appeal.
 
As the new album serves as a modern tribute to Afro-Caribbean rhythms, Rauw made a stop at Harlem’s P.S. 96 before heading back out on tour to teach dual-language students the history, sounds, and moves of salsa. From learning about its Afro-Caribbean roots to mastering the beat, Rauw showed the class how music connects generations and cultures in his episode of Celebrity Substitute that’s now available to stream.
 
Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0 is the origin story of Rauw’s widely acclaimed fifth studio album Cosa Nuestra which is currently nominated for Album of the Year at the 26th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards and Top Latin Album of the Year at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Awards. The album debuted at #1 on the Latin Albums chart and #6 on the Billboard 200, and made history as the first Latin album to chart 15 tracks in the Spotify Global Top 200.
 
Rauw received two nominations for the 26th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards including Best Reggaeton Performance for “Baja Pa’ Acá” with Alexis y Fido in addition to Album of the Year for Cosa Nuestra. He is also currently nominated for 14 Billboard Latin Music Awards including Artist, Tour, and Top Latin Album Of The Year.
 
Hailed “Latin music’s greatest showman” by Rolling Stone, the reach of Rauw’s global star power is undeniable as fans across the world packed arenas perfectly on theme in pinstripe suits and glamorous gowns while attending the 50+ completely sold-out United States, Puerto Rico and European dates of his critically-acclaimed Cosa Nuestra World Tour. With dozens of glowing live reviews from Billboard, Rolling Stone, Clash, El Mundo and more, and an electric night one in Santiago, excitement for the remaining Latin American shows of the one-of-a-kind tour is at an all-time high.
