Paco Lopez - young talent raising in the industry...
Francisco Lopez better known as “Paco” is the youngest of the top ranked event producers of Puerto Rico. He’s the president of No Limit Entertainment. With only 34 years of age, he is widely respected in the Puerto Rican Entertainment Industry.
Paco calls himself the "Producer of his dreams" because he is doing it for his own passion.
Paco is COO in WY Management Team and WY Records record label, for recognized urban music artist Wisin & Yandel. He is also Stage Manager of Wisin & Yandel shows including their representations in awarding shows such as Premios lo nuestro, Latin Grammys and Billboards.
Paco is considered to be one of the pioneers of urban music concerts. He proved to everyone the success of these artist and focused on producing events for a younger audience. Paco is a model and represents young professional success in the industry. People who are new in the industry look forward to working with Paco because of his refreshing and modern vision.
His events clearly focus on a young audience, people around the ages of 16-30. On a public that, in these times, is in need of positive impact. A public that is looking for new ways to be entertained and distract their minds. He catches the attention of this audience because he is also young and can relate to them. He finds out and worries about what these people want and he provides it to them. Most importantly, people are aware that the production staff working behind these shows are as young as them, and actually care on working hard to entertain them.
Events like “Puerto Rico para Haiti” are what impact the audience who participate in Paco Lopez events. This was a fundraising event to help damage expenses caused by the earthquake in Haiti. In this event participated young recognized local artist of Puerto Rico. Artist who have been working their way to be recognized worldwide, such as Sie7e, Ñejo y Dálmata, Millo Torres, Farruko, Dazoo, Franco El Gorila, La Secta, Yomo, Cultura Profética, Fiel a la Vega and Cosculluela. The great thing about fundraising events are how they give entertainment a positive purpose and show people how much you care.
Now Paco has been working in collaboration with artist known worldwide like Pitbull, Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias and Sean Kingston. He is dedicating himself on bringing artist never before seen in Puerto Rico, knowing for a fact that PR has a public just waiting for amazing and new shows to happen.
Paco will be presenting his next show in the Coliseum of Puerto Rico Jose Miguel Agrelot next week, on saturday March 10, 2012. With this show, Natalia Jimenez's concert, Paco is trying to capture other musical taste in his followers and getting his name known in other nations. Natalia Jimenez is a recognized Spanish singer who sang for the musical group, "La 5ta Estacion". But as said before, Paco always takes in consideration local talents, so the opening of Natalia Jimenez concert, is going to be MIMA.
