FUSE TV - Future Hispanic History Month: Nicky Jam's Rebirth

At Fuse, we're celebrating National Hispanic Heritage Month with Future Hispanic History Month, highlighting rising stars who are creating history before our very eyes. Today we salute Nicky Jam, whose started his career long ago but is finally coming into his own.

Nicky Jam was born Nick Rivera Caminero in Boston, and left the U.S. to live with family in Puerto Rico when he was 10. When he was just a kid, he was discovered freestyling outside the grocery store where he worked and was signed to an indie label, putting out his first rap/reggae album at 14. Over the course of his decades-long career, he has become known for his work with Daddy Yankee, and together, they were known as Los Cangris. Songs like "Sabanas Blancas," "Guayando" and "Sentirte" got the special Los Cangris touch, but in 2004, they went their separate ways.
