SMALL TOWN, BIG DREAMS
Adso
At the tender age of 13, Adso Alejandro started writing rhymes and performing rap songs in a small town in Los Valles del Tuy, Venezuela. Now a breakthrough artist whose trap beats (which he produces himself) and collabs have attracted international attention, Adso hits the Virgin decks.
CHARISMA PERSONIFIED
Shadia Maraby
Born and raised in Barranquilla, Shadia Maraby embodies the rhythm and passion of her hometown. The Colombiana’s hit single La Presión — a party anthem packed with girl power — earned her a deal with Sony Music, and she keeps repping Colombia with each subsequent release.
LA VOZ DE SU GENERACIÓN
Carmen DeLeon
She’s loved singing since she was 4, but Carmen DeLeon hit it big at age 13, when she was a contestant (and fan fave) on La Voz Kids in her then-hometown of Barcelona. Since then, she’s been recognized as a Billboard Artist to Watch — and watch you will, during an exclusive onboard concert.
