About Me


Hello Mi Gente and welcome to our little corner in Myspace! We are Fania Records, the home for salsa, boogaloo, Latin Jazz, Latin R&B and just about every afro-Caribbean rhythm in existence. As you know by now, Fania started way back in 1964, when bandleader Johnny Pacheco and lawyer Jerry Masucci founded the label in New York City.
Ever since, Fania has been delivering the ultimate experience in Latin sounds. Music is our lifeline and we are proud to bring you the very best from our legendary All Star Team of legends such as Hector Lavoe, Ray Barretto, Willie Colon and Celia Cruz.
This is the place to find out about our latest projects, artists collaborations, new releases and cool Fania news. It’s all about being connected and we want you to be our friend and meet other fellow Fania Records fans!
Remember To Visit Us At: FaniaRecords.Com
