Bio:
From the coastal vibes of La Serena, Chile, where the ocean breeze carries old-school reggaetón beats from his parents' speakers, Cris MJ grew up turning playground freestyles into something real. He started dropping independent tracks around 2019-2020, pulling from that raw Chilean urbano energy, naming his stage after himself and his dad's crew "Mala Junta." Then 2022 hit like a wave with "Una Noche en Medellín," this dreamy, jet-set fantasy that blew up on TikTok and turned him into Chile's most-streamed artist on Spotify overnight. The remix with Karol G and Ryan Castro took it global, landing on the Hot 100 and proving this kid from the coast could hold his own with the big leagues.

He kept the momentum rolling with collabs like "Marisola" with Standly, "Gata Only" alongside FloyyMenor (that sly, viral flirt that owned charts in 2024), and "Si No Es Contigo," each one blending heavy bass, smooth hooks, and lyrics that hit on late-night longing or straight-up party fire. By 2025, he leveled up with the album Apocalipsis, a more mature dive into trap-reggaetón fusion, experimenting with sounds while staying true to his roots. And just before the year closed, he dropped Las Filtradas, keeping that gritty, street-level reggaetón chileno alive with collabs and raw production that feels like a late-night drive through Santiago.

Now at 24, with stadium shows on the horizon (he's set to headline the Estadio Nacional in 2026, a first for urbano in Chile), Cris MJ's story is about turning small-town dreams into something massive. His music captures that mix of nostalgia, desire, and unstoppable hustle. Throw on one of his tracks when you need that perfect blend of heat and heart—it'll remind you why the scene from Chile is taking over.
