Draco Rosa

Draco Rosa, born on June 27, 1969, in Long Island, New York, is a Puerto Rican singer, composer, and producer known for his poetic lyrics and genre-bending music. He began his career as Robi Rosa in the early ‘80s as a member of the iconic boy band Menudo, gaining early fame across Latin America. After leaving the group, he pursued a solo career under the name Draco, venturing into alternative rock and Latin fusion.

In the ‘90s, Draco gained critical acclaim with his solo albums, particularly Vagabundo (1996), a cult favorite in Latin rock circles for its dark, introspective themes. As a behind-the-scenes force, he co-wrote Ricky Martin’s megahits “Livin’ la Vida Loca” and “La Copa de la Vida,” helping spark the Latin pop boom of the late ‘90s.

Draco has won seven Latin Grammy Awards and one Grammy Award, solidifying his place as one of Latin music’s most influential creative minds. As a cancer survivor, he frequently incorporates themes of mortality, spirituality, and transformation into his work. His later albums, such as Vida (2013), reflect his journey through illness and recovery.

With over 40 years in the industry, Draco Rosa remains a visionary artist whose music defies trends and deeply connects with audiences seeking depth and originality
