Jalil Lopez

Jalil Lopez embodies transformation. An artist whose journey from heartbreak to hope resonates in every note. Born in Newark, NJ, to Puerto Rican and Honduran roots, he lost both parents early in life, yet faith and church music restored his spirit. In choir harmonies and community, he found a voice shaped by hardship but lifted by resilience. Blending the Bachata his mother sang with the hip-hop culture of Newark, Lopez first captivated listeners with “Princesa Mía” and “Tu Primer Amor.” He expanded genres with Rick Ross and DJ Khaled on “America’s Most Wanted,” and the fearless track “The Abortion,” proving he wasn’t afraid to push boundaries. His global rise continued with “No Vas a Encontrar” ft. RKM, “La Culpable,” and “Borracho y Loco.” Now, as a devoted father, husband, and evolving storyteller, Lopez unveils his most personal work: Metamorfosis. This seven-track EP (plus a bonus track) features collaborations with Andres Rios (2024 Latin Grammy Song of the Year winner), Jorge Milano, Lil’ Genuiz, and four-time Grammy winner Alejandro “Mosty” Patiño. Metamorfosis chronicles Lopez’s ascent, from raw heartache to bonds of family and friendship. It’s a testament to resilience and an invitation for listeners to embrace their own rebirth. With authenticity in every lyric and passion in every melody, Lopez brings a fresh, soaring voice to Latin music’s evolving spectrum.
