Luis Fonsi is one the biggest stars in Latin music and beyond. In his two-decade-plus career, the Puerto Rican singer/songwriter has won five Latin GRAMMY Awards and received five GRAMMY nominations. In 1998, Fonsi released his first studio album, the aptly titled Comenzaré.
Since then, he has taken Latin music to new heights and broken many records while leading the charts. In 2017, Fonsi released the global hit “Despacito” with Daddy Yankee, which became a Latin pop culture phenomenon leading the Billboard Hot 100 chart for 16 weeks. The 55-times Platinum hit won Song of the Year and Record of the Year at the 18th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards.
His subsequent album Vida was certified double diamond for more than 1.3 million copies sold in the United States alone. Fonsi has collaborated with Juan Luis Guerra, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, Ozuna, Laura Pausini, Juan Gabriel, Christina Aguilera, Eros Ramazzotti, and Rauw Alejandro, amongst many others.
His latest album Ley de Gravedad arrived earlier this year, debuting Top 10 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums and registering 975 million combined streams on the different digital platforms where Fonsi has a total of 42.7 billion combined streams.
