The urban artist Ceky Viciny celebrates one of the most important moments of his career by receiving his first nomination for the Soberano Awards 2026, establishing himself as one of the most talented performers and composers of the urban genre in the Dominican Republic. The exponent competes in the category "Collaboration of the Year", for the successful song "Siempre la Más (Remix)", a collaboration with Yailin La Más Viral and La Gigi under the Alofoke Music Sound label. The song was recorded, produced, and released within the framework of the first season of the reality show La Casa de Alofoke, a project led by the businessman and communicator Santiago Matías.
