Ryan Castro has established himself as one of the emerging leaders of the new generation of Colombian reggaeton, leaving a significant impact on the Latin urban genre today. His viral music consistently keeps him on everyone's radar, and as a result, he has received three nominations at the 2023 edition of Premios Juventud in the following categories: "Artista On The Rise Masculino" (Male Artist On The Rise), "Mejor Mezcla Urbana" (Best Urban Mix) for his global hit "Nivel De Perreo" alongside J Balvin, and "Mejor Canción Pop/Urbana" (Best Pop/Urban Song) for "Fiesta," his collaboration with Farina.
More than just a global reggaeton anthem, "Nivel De Perreo" showcases the musical power of Medellín and has sparked an unprecedented movement that highlights Colombian culture since its release last year. With this single, Ryan made his debut on U.S. television by performing it at the VMA's, further solidifying his presence in the country as "The Ghetto Singer."
His collaboration on "Fiesta" brings an urban reggaeton twist to the 2000s classic, "Fiesta," by R. Kelly, with Farina adding her distinctive urban voice. The song highlights Ryan's hip-hop and R&B influences, which he incorporates into his current sound.
Additionally, Ryan is gearing up to embark on his European tour, which will include countries like Spain, France, Poland, and the Netherlands, where he will participate in several major festivals, proving himself as one of the top artists in the urban genre.
Ryan's early career endeavors are now bearing fruit in the form of multiple nominations at an awards ceremony that seeks to recognize the best in music. Premios Juventud will take place in Puerto Rico on July 20th and will be broadcast live on Univisión.
