Coro is a Latin freestyle singer and actor of Cuban and Dominican heritage, who first had roles in numerous episodes of the star's hit television series, Miami Vice. While appearing on Vice, Coro struggled to put together a group to get his singing career off the ground. His first efforts never took off, but in 1987, Coro met freestyle sensation Stevie B, who was enjoying the success of his first hit record and getting ready to tour. After a stint as a backup vocalist and dancer for Stevie B, the New York-born and Miami-raised Coro made the move back to his native Manhattan to initiate a solo singing career. Success came quickly to Coro as he hooked up with freesyle music producers Zahid Tariq and Todd Terry in 1989, and found the creative partners he had been searching for. The result was the release of Coro's first single, "Where Are You Tonight" (Cutting Records), an emotional, uptempo freestyle track which soon became the #1 dance record in New York and Florida. The song reached the Top 25 on Billboard's club chart and put Coro on the road doing shows in dance clubs across the country. On his self-titled debut album, Coro collaborated with producer Zahid Tariq to create a selection of uptempo dance tunes like "Can't Let You Go"(Cutting), "Where Are You tonight", "My Fallen Angel" (Cutting / Charisma) and tender, emotive ballads such as "Missing You", all of which have the distinct Latin flavor that has come to be Coro's musical signature all mixed by Todd Terry, Mike Rogers & Aldo Marin.
