His 2019 release Íntimo gave just what it promised: an intimate view of his personal struggles and how he overcame them. In 2017 he released the aptly named Fénix, his first LP in 10 years, and it went multiplatinum.
As of October 2020, Iglesias holds the number-one position on the Greatest of All-Latin Artists charts.
He has had five Billboard Hot 100 top five singles, including two number-ones. By 2015 he had signed with Sony Music Latin and was at the top of the charts with “El Perdón”, a collaboration with Enrique Iglesias. Iglesias is one of the best-selling Latin music artists with estimated sales of over 70 million records worldwide. In 2010 Jam moved to Colombia (the site of some of his most successful tours), immersed himself in the genre’s next wave and began releasing a string of underground hits that revealed a softer, more romantic side. In the early 2000s, Jam released several well-received albums that showcased his deft, rapid-fire rhymes, but his momentum was stalled by addiction issues. Then up-and-coming reggaetónero Daddy Yankee offered him a role as a hype man in his stage show, and Jam performed so well that the two formed the duo Los Cangris and released a few songs, including the horny, high-spirited hit “En la Cama”, before the duo dissolved in 2004. In 1992, a label head’s wife heard him freestyling while he bagged shopping within weeks, he’d been signed. In 1999, he released his first English album Enrique, which included the song ' Bailamos ' from the film Wild Wild West. He was immediately seduced by Puerto Rico’s burgeoning reggaetón scene and began rapping and improvising with his friends. Iglesias started his career in 1995 with his first Spanish album and self-titled album Enrique Iglesias, which produced five number-ones on the Hot Latin Tracks chart and won a Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album in 1997. Born Nick Rivera Caminero in 1981 in Boston, Jam moved to Puerto Rico with his family at age 10. It took him years to recover, but his story is not just a cautionary tale-it’s also an inspiration. Puerto Rican-American singer/songwriter Nicky Jam was a reggaetón wunderkind who flew too close to the sun.
