The Vengaboys, comprises of lead vocalist Kim Sasabone, female vocalist Denise van Rijswijk, and male vocalists Robin Pors and Donny Latupeirissa, emerged as the brainchild of Dutch producers Wessel van Diepen and Dennis van den Driesschen.
Renowned for their chart-topping hits, the Vengaboys achieved international acclaim with iconic tracks such as “We Like to Party,” “Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!!,” and “We’re Going to Ibiza.” These late 1990s anthems have collectively sold over 25 million records worldwide, solidifying the group’s status as a global phenomenon.
