Chencho Corleone

Chencho Corleone is not just a voice in reggaeton: it's that timbre you recognize instantly, that raspy touch that sticks in your chest when it plays. He's not the typical singer who masters high notes; instead, he turns his deep register into a personal trademark, as if every word were scraped raw by time. His style isn't limited to singing—there's his knack for crafting choruses that sound like anthems, those blocks of voices that repeat like a mantra on the tracks. He's not an interpreter trying to mimic others; he's one of those artists who, without fully intending to, end up defining a sound.

Things changed when Rauw Alejandro sought him out for «El efecto» in 2019. Until then, Chencho had been the shadow of Plan B, the duo he formed with his cousin Maldy in 1999. Back then, his role was that of the backing vocals, the second tier many overlook but which ends up being the foundation of half of reggaeton. With Plan B, he recorded hits like «Fanática sensual» or «Choca», songs that blasted at every party without anyone asking who sang them. But when «El efecto» arrived, something broke loose: suddenly, Chencho stopped being the backup to become the lead. The track didn't just climb the Billboard charts—where it reached the top of Latin Rhythm Airplay and Tropical Airplay—it opened a door that never closed. After came collaborations like «Desesperados» or «Me porto bonito», songs that didn't just play on the radio but became memes, dance routines, something people hummed without knowing he was behind them.
