Carolina Giraldo Navarro (born 14 February 1991), known professionally as Karol G, is a Colombian singer-songwriter. She is considered one of the most influential reggaeton and urban pop artists. Her accolades include a Grammy Award, eight Latin Grammy Awards (including Album of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist) and five Billboard Music Awards. She was recognised as Woman of the Year and received the Rulebreaker Award at the Billboard Women in Music Awards 2024 ceremony, and has also achieved eleven Guinness World Records. Born and raised in Medellín, Colombia, Giraldo launched her career as a teenager, appearing on the Colombian spinoff of The X Factor. She moved to New York in 2014 to learn more about the music industry and signed with Universal Music Latino. In late 2018, her duet "Secreto" became a hit in Latin America, as she and Puerto Rican artist Anuel AA publicly confirmed their relationship via its music video. In July 2019, she released "China" in collaboration with Anuel AA, Daddy Yankee, Ozuna, and J Balvin, which became her first music video with over one billion views on YouTube. In May 2019, she released the album Ocean, which served as a stylistic departure from Unstoppable, incorporating a more relaxed and less "pop" sound while incorporating reggaetón influences. Popular singles from the album included the title track (later released as a remix with Jessie Reyez). Later that year, her song "Tusa" charted internationally and was certified 28× Latin platinum by the RIAA. In 2020, Giraldo received four nominations at the Latin Grammy Awards. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, she would release successful songs, including some of her most famous ("Ay, Dios Mío!", "Bichota" and "Location"), in the lead-up to her third album, KG0516, which was released in spring of that year and topped the US Latin albums chart.
