Rauw Alejandro earned his Coliseo crown with a celebratory hometown show last night. Read our review of his first of four nights headlining Puerto Rico's biggest indoor arena

Compared to the many undergarments slung onstage at his recent performances in other cities, there were significantly fewer bras and panties gifted to Rauw Alejandro at his approximately two-and-a-half-hour homecoming show at El Coliseo. But that doesn’t mean folks weren’t elated to see him finally perform in person, to feel the heat of pyrotechnics, jump at the sonic blasts of fireworks, and get immersed in trippy digital visuals with Alejandro as their hit-making host.

In many ways, the show felt tailored specifically to Alejandro’s hometown fans, who have been with him for much longer than the year or so since he attained global breakthrough status. One peak moment came when he threw it back to “TTI,” his 2018 remix of a De La Ghetto track. In its videos, Alejandro aims to woo a girl in Old San Juan, complete with piraguas and what was then our introduction to his organically slinky way of dancing, his moves working in concert with a conversation.

There was little talk between songs; this was more a theatrical rendition of a Rauw Alejandro best-of than a traditional concert back-and-forth with fans. The setlist selection was critical to establishing a different kind of conversation between artist and fan. Alejandro’s 2021 album,are two very different albums, the former being far more experimental in terms of el movimiento at large, with synth-pop infusions and even an electronic cut.

Alejandro also called in Chencho Corleone of the pioneering reggaeton duo Plan B for their joint track, “El Efecto.” Corleone stayed a bit, delivering “Candy” and other classics — giving Alejandro, who’d had few moments when he wasn’t simultaneously singing and dancing, another brief break.
