Raymond Acevedo (born December 21, 1971), is a Puerto Rican rock music singer.
Raymond Acevedo joined the well-known Puerto Rican boy band, Menudo, in 1985, replacing the popular Ray Reyes. Acevedo joined Ricky Martin and Robby Rosa, among others, in the band.
Acevedo came into Menudo towards the end of what is generally considered the band's "golden era", when the group was undergoing a change that eventually resulted in Menudo's producing songs that were arguably edgier than their previous hits. Acevedo did participate in two of Menudo's pre-rock era albums, including Ayer Y Hoy.
On this album, Acevedo sang lead on the Menudo hit "En San Juan me Enamore" ("I Fell in Love In San Juan").
Having become a teen idol in Puerto Rico and the rest of Latin America, and a favorite among Menudo fans, Acevedo's departure from the group was followed closely by the media. He left on August 2, 1988, a few months short of his seventeenth birthday.
As of February 19, 2007, Acevedo was in Brazil pursuing promotional opportunities. He returned to the US in early 2007.
Raymond is currently in Florida, preparing for music performances and art shows across the state.
