Karol G was born in Medellin, Colombian on February 14th. Her musical career began at an early age when she participated in school competitions and music festivals.

At the age of 14, while still in high school, she decided to participate in X Factor; it was on that reality show where she made her first appearance in the music industry.

Karol G studied music at la Universidad de Antioquia in Medellin and worked on her vocal techniques. She traveled to the United States to specialize as an entrepreneur in the music field and to study English. 

She returned to Colombia and began working as an independent artist until 2010 when Reykon “El Líder” offered her the opportunity to join him on his world tour. In 2012 Karol G achieved her first number one hit worldwide with the song “301” which sparked tours in countries like: Venezuela, Uruguay, Panama, United States, Puerto Rico, Aruba, Ecuador, Paraguay and Colombia.  With the video for “301” Karol G got to number one on HTV.

Her next single was “Amor de dos”, a song that she recorded alongside Puerto Rican artist, Nicky Jam. Again, achieving the one number spot on radio that she longed for. After achieving two hit songs, “301” and “Amor de dos”, she decided to release a single called “Ricos Besos”, a mixture of innocence and sensuality, a song that is still played in Colombia and throughout other countries.

She ended 2014 with two successful hits, which caught the attention of the public for their unique sound. “Mañana”, alongside Colombian artist Andy Rivera, reaching number one in radio stations throughout Colombia and in countries like Peru and Spain. 

The second single “Si te Confieso,” was pushed solely through digital platforms, achieving great results reaching over 200,000 views on Youtube within the first day of release. “Si te Confieso,” reached great success without releasing into radio.

Fresh Air with Terry Gross, the Peabody Award-winning weekday magazine of contemporary arts and issues, is one of public radio's most popular programs. Each week, nearly 4.5 million people listen to the show's intimate conversations broadcast on more than 500 National Public Radio (NPR) stations across the country, as well as in Europe on the World Radio Network.

Though Fresh Air has been categorized as a "talk show," it hardly fits the mold. Its 1994 Peabody Award citation credits Fresh Air with "probing questions, revelatory interviews and unusual insights." And a variety of top publications count Gross among the country's leading interviewers. The show gives interviews as much time as needed, and complements them with comments from well-known critics and commentators.

Fresh Air is produced at WHYY-FM in Philadelphia and broadcast nationally by NPR.
