Mini bio
How it started.
Before music became his path, Maluma dreamed of playing soccer. He sang at school, began writing songs and found his direction in the studio as a teenager. In a Recording Academy interview, he credited early producers Kevin and Chan of the Rude Boyz with believing in him.
Finding his voice.
Born and raised in Medellín, Juan Luis Londoño Arias made his stage name from the first letters of his mother’s, father’s and sister’s names. His debut album Magia arrived in 2012. Pretty Boy, Dirty Boy followed in 2015 and brought his music to a wider international audience.
Songs and screen roles.
His catalog includes “Felices los 4,” “Hawái” and Don Juan. F.A.M.E. won the 2018 Latin Grammy for Best Contemporary Pop Vocal Album. He also voiced Mariano in Disney’s Encanto and starred alongside Jennifer Lopez in Marry Me, contributing to its soundtrack.
Coming home.
On 2026’s Loco X Volver, he turned toward his Colombian roots and the sounds he grew up with. In his Apple Music interview, he connected that shift to becoming a father and the loss of his grandmother, with salsa, vallenato and reggaeton all part of the record.
