Who is Luis Fonsi?
Luis Alfonso Rodríguez López - Cepero was born on 15th April 1978 in Puerto Rico. Affinity for music was expressed at an early age, and membership in the children's choir and frequent imitations of the famous people indicated that music would be his life-style. He enrolled at the Florida State University in 1995, the State College of Music Studies, and simultaneously sang and performed with the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. After completing his studies, he received an offer to sign a contract for Universal Music Latin and, while making his first major musical steps, he simultaneously built an acting career.
The debut album Comenzaré (I Will Begin) was released in 1998 and is rated as a true musical refreshment. Latino countries were completely conquered with the premiere edition, and the next album from 2000 only confirms great success. He spent the entire 2002 on a world tour with Britney Spears and made a big step forward on the global scene. With the song "Aquí Estoy Yo" in November 2009, he won the prestigious Latin Grammy in the "Song of the Year" category and only a month later, he performed at the Nobel Peace Prize Conference in Oslo in honor of President Barack Obama.
In 2011, the eminent Billboard called this artist the leader of a new generation of Latin music. Numerous singles, new albums, big tour and performances at leading events are constantly being enlisted in a rich career, and then a miracle called Despacito happens. With this song, released in January 2017, Luis Fonsi took the lead position in the world music scene.
