Rivera was born and raised in Carolina, Puerto Rico, the oldest son of William Landrón and Luz Antonia Rivera. From an early age, he showed interest in the music of Vico C and Brewley MC. During his youth, he became an active member of a Protestant church, Iglesia Evangélica Restauración en Cristo in Bayamón where he occasionally offered sermons. However, after four years, he left the church to dedicate himself to singing.[3] Although his base genre is reggaeton, he also took other roots in latin pop and electropop since 2008.
He released 7 studio albums between 2003 and 2018, including the Billboard Latin Music Award winner King of Kings (2006) for the Reggaeton Album of the Year. Rivera was also responsible for the production of his 4 collaboration albums, including the Latin Grammy Award winner Meet the Orphans 2: New Generation (2012) for Best Urban Music Album. His fifth studio album, The Last Don II was released in June 2015.[4][5] The artist made record in the history for Billboard.[6][7] The artist was the Guinness World Record for the video most views in YouTube.[2]
