WHAT IT IS: A renowned urbano artist who spent nearly 20 years as one half of the legendary reggaeton duo Plan B, Chencho Corleone is entering a new chapter in his solo career. The Puerto Rican hitmaker is coming off back-to-back years of smash collabs with global superstars, following up 2021’s “Desesperados” with Rauw Alejandro (now certified 9x platinum) with a feature on Bad Bunny’s “Me Porto Bonito,” which became the most-streamed song from the record-setting Un Verano Sin Ti. Latin-music fans are eagerly awaiting what’s next in the reggaeton icon’s solo campaign.
