Emmanuel Gazmey Santiago [lower-alpha 3] (born November 26, 1992), known professionally as Anuel AA, is a Puerto Rican rapper and singer. His music often contains samples and interpolations of songs that were popular during his youth. He is seen as a controversial figure in the Latin music scene for his legal troubles and feuds with fellow Puerto Rican rappers Cosculluela, Ivy Queen and Arcángel as well as American rapper 6ix9ine. Raised in Carolina, Puerto Rico, he started recording music at age fourteen and began posting it online four years later in 2010, before eventually signing to the Latin division of fellow American rapper Rick Ross's Maybach Music Group. His 2016 mixtape Real Hasta la Muerte was well-received, but his success was put on hold the same year by a 30-month prison sentence for illegal firearm possession in Puerto Rico. He recorded the entirety of his debut album while incarcerated, during which time his genre of music surged in popularity.

Contents

Anuel AA released his debut album, also titled Real Hasta la Muerte , on July 17, 2018, the day he was released from prison. The album was a critical and commercial success. In the coming six months, he appeared on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs, solidifying his position as one of the top Latino artists. In August 2019, he released the song "China", a collaboration with Daddy Yankee, Karol G, Ozuna, and J Balvin, which was a global success. He has since released the hit song "Me Gusta" with Shakira, and his second album, Emmanuel , which was released on May 29, 2020. In November 2020, Anuel AA made a statement on Instagram and released a new song suggesting his imminent retirement from the music industry, citing family and relationship issues. He was back to music with his collaborative album Los Dioses with Ozuna. His third studio album Las Leyendas Nunca Mueren was released on November 26, 2021, including 16 tracks.

Early life

Anuel AA grew up in Carolina, Puerto Rico. His father is Afro–Puerto Rican and his mother is of White Puerto Rican descent; Anuel AA has stated that he has experienced racism since childhood for being mixed-race. [3] His father, José Gazmey, was vice president of the Puerto Rican division of Sony Music Entertainment's A&R department. [3] When Anuel AA was a child, his father worked in the studio with salsa artists such as Héctor Lavoe and Fania All-Stars. While he does not identify as a fan of the salsa genre, Anuel AA recalls that seeing his father interact with these artists inspired an interest in the recording industry. [4] However, his father lost his job when Anuel AA was fifteen years old; this led him to become what Rolling Stone magazine described as a "son of the streets". [3]

He idolized Tupac Shakur while growing up and aspired to emulate his style of dress, particularly his emphasis on jewelry. [4] He is childhood friends with Puerto Rican rapper Casper Mágico, who co-wrote, and performed on the track "Te Boté". [5] Speaking about how his upbringing in the projects influenced his music, Anuel AA stated, "My music is my soul speaking, literally. It's spiritual. It has a lot of feelings, a lot of pain. It's my experiences growing up en la calle [in the streets]." [4]

Career

Early career

Anuel AA began recording music at age fourteen, and started posting it online at age 18 in 2010. [4] [1] His music garnered millions of streams and views and eventually caught the attention of American rapper Rick Ross, who signed him to the Latin division of Maybach Music Group. [1] His mixtape Real Hasta la Muerte was released in February 2016 and received positive reviews from critics. [1] The success of this mixtape lead to Anuel AA landing a guest feature on Ozuna's 2017 album Odisea . [6]

2016–2018: Incarceration and Real Hasta la Muerte album

In April 2016, Anuel AA was arrested in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, and sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for illegal possession of three firearms. [7] Billboard noted that Latin trap surged in popularity while Anuel AA was in prison, writing, "Anuel remained behind bars, while outside, his music flourished." [8] After being arrested and imprisoned, he recorded his debut album while incarcerated. [6] He did this by primarily recording his vocals over the phone and taking advantage of his mandatory stay at a Miami halfway house to complete the album. [6]

He released his debut album Real Hasta la Muerte on July 17, 2018, the day he was released from prison. [7] Rolling Stone included it on its list of Best Latin Albums of 2018, noting that the artist "demonstrates impressive pop instincts" and further commented, "As Anuel keeps one foot in trap, he's also looking toward Latin pop's mainstream". [9] Real Hasta la Muerte peaked at number 42 on the Billboard 200 and topped the US Top Latin Albums chart. [10] [11] The release of the album, along with the artist's release from prison, garnered significant media attention; the rapper was surprised by the public response and stated that he "didn't even know how to talk in interviews" after being incarcerated for more than two years. [12] He achieved his first Billboard Hot 100 hit in August 2018 through his collaboration with American rapper 6ix9ine on the song "Bebe". [12]

In the six months following the release of Real Hasta la Muerte, Anuel AA contributed vocals to eleven Billboard Hot Latin Songs-charting singles, including "Ella Quiere Beber" with American singer Romeo Santos. [13] He also collaborated with Nicki Minaj and Bantu on the song "Familia" for the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack, released in December 2018. [14] In January 2019, the rapper released the single "Secreto" with Colombian singer Karol G, confirming the romantic relationship between the two artists in the song's accompanying music video. [15] The single reached number 68 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number five on the US Hot Latin Songs charts. [16] [17] The song was inspired by the time when Anuel AA and Karol G were dating but had not yet publicly discussed their relationship. The video's "power couple" aesthetic garnered comparisons to Beyoncé and Jay-Z as well as Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony. [13]

2019–2020: "China" success and Emmanuel

In July 2019, Anuel AA released "China", a collaboration with Daddy Yankee, Karol G, Ozuna, and J Balvin. The song heavily samples Shaggy's 2000 single, "It Wasn't Me", a track Anuel AA remembered from his childhood, which he selected from a number of old songs he had been listening to with the intention of "redo[ing] a classic". [18] [19] He told XXL that "when I used to go with the big boys in my hood to the club, they put that song on and everybody used to go crazy". [19] "China" debuted at number two on Billboard's Hot Latin Songs chart and topped both the Latin Digital Songs and Latin Streaming Songs charts with 1,000 downloads sold and 14.1 million streams, [18] while the accompanying video was included on the Rolling Stone list of the 10 Best Latin Music Videos of July. [20] Anuel AA later appeared on the single "Whine Up" from Nicky Jam's album Íntimo , released on November 1, 2019. [21]

In January 2020, Anuel AA collaborated with Shakira on the song "Me Gusta", which interpolates Jamaican reggae band Inner Circle's 1992 hit "Sweat (A La La La La Long)". [22] Rolling Stone called the song "an unhurried lover's rock number with a delicate touch of dembow". [22] He featured on Bad Bunny's 2020 album YHLQMDLG on the song "Está Cabrón Ser Yo". [23] On April 3, 2020, Anuel AA released "3 de Abril" which commemorates the day that the artist was arrested, leading to prison time. [7] The song reflects on his troubled youth and the challenges he faced while incarcerated. Suzy Exposito of Rolling Stone called the track a "sobering commemoration". [7] Also in April 2020, Anuel AA released the single and video for "Follow" with Karol G, recording it entirely while in quarantine in Miami due to the COVID-19 pandemic. [24]

On May 27, 2020, he announced and revealed the tracklist for his second album, Emmanuel , which was released on May 29. [25] Anuel AA had originally planned to release the album in April, but postponed the date due to the pandemic. [26] On the day of the album's release, he promoted it by launching three luxury yachts off the coast of Miami's Isle of Normandy neighborhood. [3] Each yacht had the name Emmanuel written on the side and played his music at high volume. The rapper explained his promotional strategy by saying, "Everybody does their release party in a club. And with coronavirus? I wouldn't go to the club right now!" [3] The 22-track double album features collaborations from Bad Bunny, Enrique Iglesias, Travis Barker, Tego Calderón, Karol G, Lil Wayne, Farruko, Yandel and Ñengo Flow. [26] [25] Regarding the title of the album, the artist explained, "It's my name and it means 'God with us'. I wanted the album to have that good vibe. It's my life, made into music." [26]

2020 – mid 2021: Retirement comments and Los Dioses

In November 2020, Anuel AA indicated in an Instagram post that he was retiring from the music industry. [27] On November 19, he released a new track, "Me Contagié 2", in which he talks about depression, indicates unhappiness with his relationships and expresses anguish at the fact that his career often takes him away from his young son, who has asked him to retire. He closes the song with the statement "In these Grammys, I retire". [28] The comments have left his fans in a state of confusion about his future plans, as it appears that he has yet to make a more formal announcement of retirement. [27] [28] [29] [30]

On January 22, 2021, Anuel AA and Ozuna released their collaborative album Los Dioses . [31] The album includes 12 tracks.

Musical style and influences

According to XXL, Anuel AA is considered "one of the founding fathers of Latin trap music". [19] He is noted for his signature "BRRR" adlib, which is meant to mimic the sound of an automatic firearm. [4] Anuel AA's lyrics often discuss sex, crime, and life on the streets. [1] Paul Simpson of AllMusic described his lyrics as "too risqué to be played on the radio" and highlighted that his success has instead stemmed from streaming services and the artist's highly active social media presence. [1] Gary Suarez of Vice viewed his 2018 album Real Hasta la Muerte as a collection of both "gleaming trap bangers" and "reggaeton crowd pleasers". [6] Despite his "bad guy image", Suarez wrote that the relationship-themed songs "Culpables" and "Secreto" represent "a softening of his hardened trapero persona". [12] Anuel AA is noted for his use of the word "bebecita" ("baby girl") in songs and on social media, and the word has become associated with the reggaeton genre as well as Anuel AA and Karol G's relationship. [38] [39]

Anuel AA's introduction to hip hop occurred upon listening to rapper Tupac Shakur. [19] His songs frequently pay homage to both U.S. and Latin artists that influenced him in his youth. Examples include "China" which samples both "It Wasn't Me" by Shaggy and "Ella Me Levantó" by Daddy Yankee, and "Delincuente" which interpolates "Bandoleros" by Don Omar and Tego Calderón. [40] He is influenced by, and has collaborated with, American hip hop artists Meek Mill and Gucci Mane, both of whom, like Anuel AA, gained notoriety for serving time in prison. [6] Describing Meek Mill's impact on his music, Anuel AA explained, "I listen to what people say in the songs, not just the melodies. With rappers you gotta listen to what they say. And Meek be talking some real shit. That's why I look up to him." [19] In an interview with Vice, he expressed admiration for the music of bachata artist Zacarías Ferreíra, Dominican rapper el Alfa, and English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran. [4] He has also indicated an interest in collaborating with Post Malone and Billie Eilish. [19]

Controversies

On September 15, 2018, Anuel AA released a diss track called "Intocable" aimed at fellow rapper Cosculluela. The track was widely criticized due to its profanity and remarks about homosexuality and HIV/AIDS patients. [41] In the song, he refers to model and television host La Taína as a "pig" for her HIV-positive status. [42] Due to the public backlash, Anuel AA's concert at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico venue, scheduled for October 12 of that year, was canceled by his production staff and main producer Paco López. Anuel AA later issued an apology for the song. [13] [41] He explained, "It is the worst mistake of my career. I do not need this and I apologize to all the people I offended. To homosexuals, to people with AIDS, to La Taína [the model] and to those who lost everything after Hurricane Maria ... My fans deserve from me to be a better person, and I apologize to everyone in Puerto Rico." [41]

In early April 2019, Anuel AA and Ivy Queen engaged in an argument on Instagram after Anuel AA questioned how Ivy Queen could be still considered the "Queen of Reggaeton". Anuel argued she hadn't had a hit song in more than 7 years, and further questioned if Karol G should be considered another "Queen of Reggaeton". [43] Followers on Instagram speculated about why he made the comments. Ivy Queen responded with comments about where she came from and how she was a pioneer, paving the way for other women to follow. [43] [44]

In December 2023, a feud against Anuel AA and Arcángel would start after the latter released "Feliz Navidad 8", which is a diss track against Anuel, Rochy RD and Ozuna. The possible reason for the release of track is due to Anuel ending his business relationship with his longtime manager Frabián Eli, who is Arcángel's brother-in-law. [45] Anuel responded with the release of the diss track "Glock, Glock, Glock", where he mentions that without Bad Bunny, Arcángel cannot make a hit single. Arcángel responded again with another diss track, "El Narcan", which is titled after the substance of the same name. The lyrics claim that Anuel has substance abuse issues. [46] Anuel responded again with a second diss track "Arcángel Es Chota", a song where Karol G and Cosculluela are again mentioned and, in the lyrics, mentions Arcángel's arrest in 2019 for domestic battery. Also responding to Arcángel again through an Instagram post, Anuel claims that nobody noticed that he released his album, Sentimiento, Elegancia y Más Maldad , adding that "[he's] waiting for Bad Bunny to collaborate with him to revive his career." [47] Arcángel would release a third diss track titled "3 a 0", where he mentions Anuel's ex-partner Yailin La Más Viral and defends Karol G and Feid in the track. [48]

Relationships

Anuel AA has a son with his ex-wife, Astrid Cuevas, named Pablo Anuel, [49] a daughter with Colombian model Melissa Vallecilla, named Gianella, and a daughter with his ex-spouse, Yailin La Más Viral, named Cattleya. [50]

Anuel AA met Colombian singer Karol G in August 2018 on the set of the music video for their song "Culpables", a month after his release from prison. [51] In January 2019, Anuel AA and Karol G confirmed their relationship. [13] On April 25, 2019, Karol G arrived at the Billboard Latin Music Awards wearing a "massive" diamond ring, confirming the couple's engagement. In March 2021, it was reported that the couple ended their relationship after two years of dating. [51]

In early 2022, Gazmey confirmed his relationship with Dominican rapper Yailin La Más Viral. In June 2022, the couple got married. [52] In February 2023, the couple announced their separation. [2]

Anuel AA was arrested and held in the Metropolitan Detention Center, Guaynabo on April 3, 2016, with three companions when police found three pistols including one stolen, nine magazines, and 152 bullets. He signed a plea deal, accepting a 30-month sentence in federal prison, on gun possession charges. [53] Following his arrest, the #FreeAnuel movement became popular among his fans as he continued to release tracks from prison [1] by recording his voice over the phone. [6]

While incarcerated, Anuel AA spent 90 days in solitary confinement following an incident with another inmate. [8] During his trial, he stated that the lyrics in his music did not represent his true character. The presiding judge Aida Delgado-Colón said she had never heard any of his songs. [54] In March 2018, Anuel AA was released from federal prison into a state prison in Miami. During this time, he told Billboard that while imprisoned, he listened to the radio and kept up with what was happening in the streets to draw inspiration for his songwriting. [55] Anuel also claims that during his time in prison he started reading the Bible for the first time and realizing that “his talent and blessings came from God”. [56]

NFTs

On June 10, 2022, it was reported that Anuel AA would be entering the NFT space by launching his own NFT collection making him one of the first Latin rappers in history to do so. [57] He is also the first Latin artist to collaborate with the UFC promoting a sports conceptual album.
