Becky G
Able to effortlessly transition from a verse filled with hardcore rap to a hooky pop chorus in either Spanish or English, Becky G has an impressive range. While still a teenager, she worked alongside artists like Cody Simpson and Kesha before breaking out with her solo hit "Shower" in 2014. As she released a steady stream of singles, G also branched out into acting, appearing in the 2017 Power Rangers movie, then landing a big Latin hit with her Bad Bunny collaboration "Mayores." The song later appeared on her 2019 debut album, Mala Santa, which hit the Top Five on the Latin charts. Another string of singles carried her into the next decade, including 2020's "No Drama" with Ozuna and 2022's "Mamiii" with Karol G, before she returned to the Top Five of the Latin Albums chart with her sophomore album, Esquemas. In 2023, she delivered Esquinas, a celebration of the Regional Mexican music she grew up with, featuring the Hot 100 single "Chanel" with Peso Pluma.
Born and raised in Inglewood, California, Rebbeca Marie Gomez began her career at the age of 14, uploading cover versions of popular songs like Kanye West and Jay-Z's "Otis" and Frank Ocean's "Novacane" to video-sharing services. Using the stage name Becky G, she amassed an online following and caught the attention of producer Dr. Luke, who signed her to his Sony-owned Kemosabe imprint. At first, she focused on features, joining Cody Simpson on his 2012 single "Wish U Were Here" and appearing on the remix of Kesha's single "Die Young." Her own debut single, "Becky from the Block," landed in 2013 alongside her EP Play It Again. A year later, G's single "Shower" became a breakout hit and cracked the U.S. Top 20, eventually going multi-platinum. She followed it up later in the year with the Pitbull-assisted "Can't Get Enough" and logged time on the road opening for both Demi Lovato and Katy Perry.
In 2017, Becky G's career got another boost when she appeared in the feature film Power Rangers playing Trini, the yellow Power Ranger. In July of that year, she scored a major Latin chart hit with "Mayores," a collaboration with Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny. She returned to English in July 2018 with "Zooted," featuring French Montana and Farruko, and was also featured on Kane Brown's song "Lost in the Middle of Nowhere." In October 2019, G finally released her debut full-length album, Mala Santa. Along with the previously released "Mayores," the record spawned the spotlight tracks "Sin Pijama" with Natti Natasha, "Cuando Te Besé" with Paulo Londra, and "Dollar" featuring Myke Towers. The set peaked at number three on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart. Also that year, she paired with Anitta for "Banana" and joined Maluma for the song "La Respuesta." More stand-alone tracks arrived in 2020, including "Perdiendo la Cabeza" with Carlos Rivera and Pedro Capó, "Muchacha" with Gente de Zona, and "No Drama" with Ozuna.
Becky G and Natti Natasha joined forces again in 2021 on "Ram Pam Pam," which was followed by "Fulanito" featuring El Alfa. The following year saw G team up with Karol G on the single "Mamiii." All of this led up to the release of the singer's sophomore full-length album, 2022's disco- and reggaeton-infused Esquemas, which cracked the Top 20 of the Hot 100 and hit number one on the Latin Pop Albums chart. She followed in March 2023 with the Omega-assisted non-album single "Arranca." That September, she returned with her third full-length, the Edgar Barrera-produced Esquinas. Anchored by the singles "Chanel" (with Peso Pluma) and "La Nena" (with Gabito Ballesteros), the album found her embracing a mix of traditional horn- and guitar-driven Regional Mexican styles. It hit number 109 on the Billboard 200 and reached the Top Ten of the Latin charts.
