Kenzy on SoundBetter

Medellin based songwriter, topliner and singer / rapper. I'm 26 yeard old and from more than one decade I've been writing reggaeton songs alongside top producers and artists in the Medellin urban scene. I'm ready to deliver that Latin hit you're looking for.

I like to focus on catchy melodies and strong punchlines. As a songwriter my strenght is reggaeton, but I'm able to create songs in different styles such as trap, drill, dancehall, afrobeat, rnb and hip hop. I come from a hip hop background, so I'm skilled at delivering rapped verses.

From over a decade I have work with multiple Medellin's industry figures, like Ryan Castro, Blessd, Icon Music, Kapla & Miky, Tezzel, The Prodigiez, among others.

I value quality and professionalism in every project I participate in. We will discuss your goals for the project and our plan to accomplish them.

-Commercial use of my voice/name has additional costs
-2 free revisions per project
-$75 for each extra revision
-Publishing to be discussed
