Biography
He has received recognitions such as five Billboard Awards, twelve Billboard Latin Awards, four Guinness World Records, among other praises. In 2018, the magazine Time named him in its annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world. His debut album, Odisea (2017), reached the number one position on the Top Latin Albums chart. By September of the same year, Ozuna had been on Billboard charts nineteen times. His second album, Aura (2018), debuted in the top positions worldwide, and includes singles such as «Única» and «Vaina loca». His third studio album, Nibiru (2019), received good critical and commercial reception, and stood out with different musical genres.
In addition to music, he has ventured into other areas. He made his acting debut in 2018 with the Dominican film Qué León. In 2021, he collaborated with the mobile game Call of Duty: Mobile. He is the owner of the team Los Osos de Manatí in the Puerto Rican Baloncesto Superior Nacional (BSN). Juan Carlos Ozuna Rosado is the son of a Puerto Rican mother and a Dominican father. He was born in Puerto Rico on March 13, 1992. His father was a dancer for three years with the singer Vico C. This man died when Ozuna was three years old, and due to economic problems, his mother could not take care of him, so he spent most of his life with his grandmother.
As a child, he helped her in her hair accessory business in Río Piedras. From a young age, he had a passion for urban music and at the age of twelve, he started composing songs. In 2010, he moved to New York, where he lived with relatives in Washington Heights for three years in search of opportunities in the music industry. About his stay, he said: «Life goes very fast there, too fast, faster than me, and I think no one can go faster than me». Upon returning to Puerto Rico, he focused intensely on music. He began releasing demos online under the artistic name J. Oz, and eventually chose to use his surname as a pseudonym between 2010 and 2011.
He debuted as Ozuna in 2012 with the song «Imaginando», and later released songs such as «Igual como tú», «Yo quisiera», «Se solto», «Música eléctrica», among others.
