Myke Towers

Myke Towers worships a good rhyme. Over the past decade, the acclaimed rapper and singer has grown into one of Puerto Rico's top lyricists, melding streetwise storytelling and massive pop hooks into a career filled with chart-topping anthems. Towers is one of the OGs of Latin trap, breaking out in 2013 alongside rookie visionaries such as Álvaro Díaz and Fuete Billete, who channeled the irreverence and visceral songwriting of classic reggaetón with fresh flows echoing Atlanta trap. Hits like “La Curiosidad” and “Bandido” cemented Towers as one of the all-stars of música urbana, even earning him the nickname of Young King. Yet despite multiple Latin Grammy nominations and blockbuster crossovers with some of the industry's biggest names, Myke Towers still feels like his story is just beginning.

At 18 years old, Myke Towers began uploading his first freestyles and experiments to SoundCloud, where word quickly spread about the new Boricua rap talent to watch. He released his first mixtape El Final del Principio in 2016; an impressively mature record of autobiographical lyrics and boom-bap beats that invoked classic rap. Three years later, his efforts led him to collaborate with Farruko on the hit single “Si Se Da,” reuniting the following year for the viral remix of “La Playa,” which also featured a verse from Maluma. These songs were a turning point in Towers' career, as he reached broader audiences and embraced a more commercial sound that launched him into the stratosphere.

In 2020 Towers released Easy Money Baby, an LP that expanded his sonic palette even further with blasts of reggaetón, dancehall, and baile funk on hits like “Diosa” and “Girl.” That same year, collaborations with Bad Bunny, Nicky Jam, Camila Cabello, Becky G and Anitta cemented him as one of the leading names in mainstream reggaetón, though his heart yearned for a return to his rap roots. Lyke Mike arrived in 2021, loaded with introspective bars and throbbing trap and drill beats. Cuts like “Mírenme Ahora” and “Pin Pin” showcased Towers at the top of his songwriting game, remaining true to his artistic vision and complex narratives without relying on catchy pop choruses.
