Ralfi Pagán was a Latin soul and salsa singer from the Bronx with Puerto Rican roots, active from the mid-1960s until 1978. Known for his smooth soul ballads in both Spanish and English, Pagán released five albums during the 1970s. He gained recognition for his duet "Soul Je T’aime" with Sylvia Robinson and his solo version of "Make It with You." Pagán performed throughout the Southwest US and continued building his career until he was tragically murdered while on tour in Colombia in 1978, a case that remains unsolved.
