Beginning in the late '80s, Chayanne, one of Latin pop's premier heartthrobs, sustained a plentiful hitmaking career as a balladeer and even establish time to pursue an acting vocation on the side.

Designed to rival Menudo, which was the preeminent boy band of the earned run average, Los Chicos failed to reach out a comparably hectic horizontal surface of popularity, though they were commercially successful enough to warrant a made-for-TV film,
Conexión Caribe (1984), as good as a weekly TV show on Puerto Rico's WAPA-TV. Los Chicos released five albums -- Para Amar (1980), Puerto Rico (1980), Viva el Amor (1982), Bailando al Ritmo de la Lluvia (1983), and Conexión Caribe (1984) -- in front conclusion their run in 1984. Almost immediately, Chayanne embarked on a solo life history, debuting with
Chayanne Es Mi Nombre (1984) for RCA Records.
Sangre Latina (1986) followed, simply it wasn't until Chayanne touched to Sony for a sequent couple of eponymous albums in 1988 and 1989 that his solo career began to carry fruit. His 1989 album in special was a murder, earning him a Grammy nomination for Best Latin Pop Performance; major hits included "Fiesta en America," "Violeta," "Te Deseo," and "Para Tenerte Otra Vez," which were re-recorded in Portuguese, as was the remainder of the record album itself, for a successful Brazilian crossover. Also in 1989, Chayanne notably signed a contract with Pepsi to record the commencement Spanish-language commercial airy in the United States on a major TV network without subtitles or dubbing, debuted during the Grammy Awards that year. Henceforth Chayanne would delight regular success, releasing hit albums roughly every two years:
Tiempo de Vals (1990),
Provocame (1992),
Influencias (1994),
Volver a Nacer (1996),
Atado a Tu Amor (1998),
Simplemente (2000),
Sincero (2003),
Cautivo (2005). Each sold better than its predecessor, for the nearly voice. Greatest-hits compilations such as
Grandes Exitos (2002) and
Desde Siempre (2005) would too be issued from clip to time. Chayanne's hits are too numerous to list, though it is worth pointing kO'd his particularly up-and-coming association with songster Estéfano.
