Ever since Rafael Vargas aka D.O.S.E aka Fulanito introduced his first international hit "Do What You Want" in 1989, he has been doing just that when it comes to his music and lyrics. While growing up in Washington Heights in New York City, D.O.S.E was influenced by all the great music and culture the 80's had to offer. As a teen living in a Dominican household and neighborhood, Merengue, Salsa and Spanish ballads were the sounds that dominated the airwaves at home and at family gatherings.
