Mini bio

How it started.

Born in Bayamón, Puerto Rico, Carlos Efrén Reyes Rosado found an early audience online. Myspace helped him build the fan base that would follow his music beyond the island. His debut album, El Talento del Bloque, introduced him as a solo artist.

Songs that travelled.

Collaborations with J Balvin on “6 AM” and Sean Paul on “Passion Whine” helped widen his audience. Albums such as Visionary and La 167 followed, while “Calma (Remix)” with Pedro Capó earned a Latin Grammy for Best Urban Fusion/Performance in 2019.

Room to change.

“Pepas” brought reggaeton and electronic dance music together in 2021. His 2022 Tiny Desk performance reflected a spiritual turn and a growing focus on family and faith. More recently, he has explored Venezuela with Louis BPM on 167BPM and Panama’s reggae roots on Manda La Plena Moh.
