Born on November 26, 1992, in Carolina, Puerto Rico, Anuel AA grew up in a middle-class family with his father, José Gazmey, serving as Vice President at Sony Music Puerto Rico, which sparked his early interest in music. He began recording tracks at age 14 and gained online traction by 18, releasing his breakthrough mixtape 'Real Hasta la Muerte' in 2016, which established him in the Latin trap scene despite his imprisonment for illegal firearm possession. After his 2018 release from prison, the album topped charts, debuting at 42 on the Billboard 200 and 1 on US Top Latin Albums, featuring collaborations with artists like Ozuna, Karol G, and Bad Bunny. His style incorporates samples from his youth, Tupac influences, and themes of street life, earning him the self-proclaimed title 'The God of Latin Trap.' Anuel has collaborated with global stars like Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj, and Romeo Santos, solidifying his impact on Latin music. Controversies including feuds with rappers like Cosculluela, Ivy Queen, and 6ix9ine have marked his career, yet he continues to evolve with chart-topping releases.
