Description

From the stoops of East 139th Street to the global stage, Willie Colón’s rhythm was forged in the heart of the South Bronx. BronxNet joins the community in honoring the life of a salsa architect, a Nuyorican icon, and a true hometown hero. He didn’t just play music; he told our stories. While the trombone has gone silent, his legacy remains etched in the streets that raised him. Rest in power, Willie. #WillieColon #BronxNet #TheBronx #SalsaLegend #Nuyorican #BXBorn
