Bridging the gaps between cultures, Colombian Karol G, has taken a creative leap through the eastern side of the American continent at her own pace. Leading up to now, Karol G’s career includes a few singles, six of which have debuted on the Hot Latin Songs chart in the past two years and an album (Unstoppable) which landed in the top 5 of the Top Latin Albums chart, debuting at №2.

Embracing a heap of creative possibilities and inviting new colors to her scheme, the 27-year-old does not dismiss innovation. On the contrary, her signature blend of reggaeton, trap and pop percolates into other musical realms on a number of remixes and collaborations with Latino heavy hitters, J Balvin, Luis Fonsi and Nicky Jam, as well as Migos member Quavo, to name a few.

Recently named “Rise” artist by Spotify, and boasting well over a billion YouTube global views, Karol G continues to carve her course in the Latin world. She will be taking the stage at the Hispanic Heritage Awards in Washington D.C. on September 12th, where she will also be receiving the Inspira Award, which honors Latino role models for youth. In addition, she is gearing up for a joint U.S. tour with Piso 21, kicking off on Oct. 11 in New York.
