Bio

Don Omar has a dynamic voice that seems to always rise above the rest. Although he is the king of reggaeton, he sees himself as a constant innovator and a versatile Urban Latin artist. He is a top-flight rapper who can hold his own with anyone in terms of flow, but he is also a devotee of melody, harmony, the use of instrumentation, and the spectacle of a live show. He loves and draws influence from salsa, merengue, bachata, bolero and even rock. Don Omar puts it all together: he raps, dances and sings.
