About Anuel AA

Emmanuel Gazmey Santiago was born November 27, 1992 in Carolina, Puerto Rico, just east of San Juan, and grew up between Carolina and the broader San Juan metro. His father, José Gazmey, worked in the Latin music industry as a vice president of A&R at Sony Music Latin and later as an independent executive, which put Emmanuel inside the recording-industry orbit from childhood — he met Tego Calderón, Wisin y Yandel, and other early-2000s reggaeton figures through his father's work and grew up watching the genre's first commercial wave from the inside. He started writing rhymes in his early teens and released a string of self-produced trap and reggaeton tracks online through 2010, 2011, and 2012, eventually catching the attention of Maybach Music Latino, Rick Ross's Spanish-language imprint, which signed him in 2016. Real Hasta la Muerte — both a phrase and a creed — became the umbrella for the catalogue, eventually growing into his own independent label, Real Hasta la Muerte LLC, which has put out most of his subsequent work. In April 2016 he was arrested in San Juan on a federal weapons possession charge and ultimately sentenced to 30 months in federal prison; he served the sentence at FCI Miami and a series of other federal facilities, and the case became a defining narrative moment for the Real Hasta la Muerte project — fans tracked the release date for years, and the debut album Real Hasta la Muerte dropped on July 17, 2018, the day he walked out of federal custody. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Top Latin Albums chart and stayed on the chart for an extended run, anchored by Ella Quiere Beber and the breakout Sola. The Karol G relationship — they got engaged in 2019 and split publicly in 2021 — produced Secreto and other duets and remains one of the most-tracked relationships in the genre. Anuel and Karol's split was followed by his marriage to Yailin La Más Viral in 2022 and subsequent separation; the personal narrative is heavily intertwined with the catalogue, and the lyrics routinely document specific moments in real time. Emmanuel arrived in 2020 as a more polished record; the joint album Los Dioses with Ozuna followed in early 2021 and reset expectations for what a Latin urbano duo project could do commercially; Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren dropped later in 2021 as the most ambitious record to date. Llns Skydd, an extended-edition follow-up tied to the Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren universe, came in 2024 as the next major catalogue moment. Anuel has been nominated for Latin Grammy Awards, has scored multiple Latin Billboard Music Awards, and the visual identity — the Real Hasta la Muerte chain, the Carolina PR iconography, the dual-tone hooded jersey aesthetic, the back-tattoo work — is one of the most recognizable in the genre. The catalogue ranges across trap latino, reggaeton, drill, dembow, Latin R&B, and the more melodic Latin pop end on duets, and the live show pulls from every era.
