Natti Natasha (real name: Natalia Alexandra Gutiérrez) and Pina Records’ founder Raphy Pina (real name: Rafael Antonio Pina-Nieves) confirmed that they are engaged.
The Dominican artist announced the news via her Instagram account Monday morning (Feb. 1). Shouting it from the rooftops and flaunting her dazzling engagement ring, Natti expressed: “
También quería gritarlo a los 4 vientos. I SAID YES!” Part of her latest single, “Antes Que Salga El Sol,” accompanies the photo.
The engagement news comes just three days after the couple hinted that they were dating at the end of Pina Records’ new artist Fran Rozzano’s music video “Inedito.” Later that day, they officially announced their relationship via an Instagram Live video.
A long-overdue collaboration within the Dominican music scene, Natti Natasha kicks off 2021 teaming up with Prince Royce on “Antes Que Salga El Sol.” As opposed to what fans thought a collab would sound like between the two a romantic bachata Natti and Royce take a different route with a feel-good reggae-infused urban bop. The track, produced by DJ Luian, Mambo Kingz and Rafael Salcedo Neneto,” is about two people who are looking for a good time after reconnecting. An enchanting music video, filmed in Miami by Carlos Perez of Elastic People, shows the beauty of opposites attracting.
