Mini bio
How it started.
Dharius grew up around rap in Monterrey. His older brother and cousins introduced him to the music and brought him into Los Pattos. He recorded a demo with them in 1996, then moved through other local groups before joining Cartel de Santa.
Finding his own voice.
Cartel de Santa brought him to a wider audience. After leaving the group, he worked with producer Mauricio Garza in Los Angeles on Directo Hasta Arriba, his 2014 solo debut. The album included Sick Jacken, Revel Day, Billy Kent and Alkhol.
Building El Clan.
He announced his independent label El Clan Records in 2019 to help develop new artists. By 2026, his collaborations stretched from Mexican rap peers on “Top Top” to Christian Nodal on “Ey Mezcal,” both part of Directo Hasta Arriba Vol.2.
