Julio Voltio, one of the key figures of the Latin urban movement, reconciles with his past through the making of a documentary long awaited by his fans. Titled “En Vivo Desde Oso Blanco”, the popular rapper closes a dark chapter in his personal life and shares it with thousands of fans around the globe.

The DVD tells the story of his involvement with Puerto Rico’s street gangs in the beginning of his career as well as his experiences behind bars at Oso Blanco, a criminal institution which has gained the reputation as the “Alcatraz of the Caribbean”, home of the most dangerous criminals in the island.

Images of the difficulties of the everyday life of the inmates confined to cell 352 are dramatically portrayed on this DVD which also includes a look back at Voltio’s early beginnings; from his childhood surrounded by constant criminal activity narrating dangerous encounters with the police and rival street gangs, to the images from his gratuitous concert for his fellow inmates.

The show had all the complications a concert from inside lockdown can bring; from threats of an uprising by the inmates to an incessant rain, all coming together to fill the audience with emotions.

“En Vivo Desde Oso Blanco” reveals the reality of the criminal subculture in Puerto Rico and relates a story of redemption by the power of music.

The DVD is a new release by Sony BMG Latin, available in stores this coming August 12th
