This arsenal of talent, coupled with Julian’s electric personality made him a favorite everywhere he performed.

In 1997, famed producer, songwriter, and composer, JELLYBEAN BENITEZ heard a sampling of Julian’s work and was quickly signed to his newly formed recording label, H.O.L.A (Home of Latina Artists). The Julian’s 1st single, “Ponte a Mover”, was an instant club favorite and became a radio hit. The single earned Julian a spot on a worldwide tour that featured artists such as: Projecto Uno, Frankie J, D’Mingo, Angel Clivilles, & many more.
Thirteen year after, Julian was ready to give himself back to the Salsa world and began the recording process of “Soy Tuyo”, which translates into “I’m Yours”, “Sonrisa Inolvidable“ & “Tu Invades Mi Mente“. The project encompasses El Diamante de la Salsa’s romantic journey in life and he poured all of his love into writing, composing, producing, and performing the specially selected songs. “Soy Tuyo” is refreshing addition to the Latin scene, one that encapsulates Julian’s love and respect for Latin Music and his musical journey.
