Born in [[Lenox Hill Hospital]], located in [[Harlem]], [[New York City, New York]] to a [[Puerto Rican people|Puerto Rican]] mother and a [[Jamaica]]n father, he was exposed to music since his earliest years due to his parents and family musical abilities .{{cn|date=August 2022}} His hits with the band included "[[Je l'aime à mourir|La quiero a morir]]", "Juliana", "[[No Matter What (George Lamond song)|No Morirá]]", "Volveré", "Todo mi corazón", and a remake of [[Ricardo Montaner]]'s original classic "Me va a extrañar".
