Keniel Melendez born and raised in Lorain, Ohio. He was always into music growing up. His family was all about music and his dad would sing him to sleep. His mom would sing around the house and his brother would play salsa, bomba, and more. When Keniel was 8 he learned from his bother and uncle how to play congas and bongos. When he was 10 he wanted a toy called radio dj. He wanted this so he could start his own radio show out of his basement. He tried everything that he could to get it but growing up wasn’t easy. His family did not have a lot of money. So one day he decided to take a radio speaker and headphones and start playing music for the people on his block through his window. When Keniel was 15 him and his brother Lil Kev started to put a small music studio together using a dell computer cool edit pro and a microphone. Lil Kev was Keniel’s first rapper that helped him establish himself as a producer doing local shows in Lorain. At 17 he established his own record label called Keniel’s Productions on 28th street in Lorain. He began working with more rappers and producers until one day it was all over. Keniel’s Productions was robbed. They stole the keyboard, microphones, computer, TVs, and files. One thing they managed to leave behind was his backup hard drive with all his beats and recorded sessions on it. This made things very tough for Keniel but he did not give up on his dream. He started again alone making beats and selling them on the internet so could start to purchase studio equipment. In 2007 thinking what could come next he decided to start writing hooks and songs. He then decided to make a group named “Las Voces De La Calle” with his brother Lil Kev. They started making major moves around Ohio doing Latin festivals, recording mixtapes, and radio interviews. In 2009 local dj’s began playing there songs. Local promoters and event coordinators for the Lorain Ohio Latin Committee began contacting them to perform at the IX Center, Latin Festivals in Cleveland, Lorain and Columbus. They have also performed in Florida, Texas ,Las Vegas ,Columbus,Detroit,Cincinnati and New York. They’ve opened up for big name artists, such as, Tony Dize, Arcangel, Plan B, Wiso G, Cosculluela, Toby Love, Wisin y Yandel, Tony Vega, and Trebol Clan. They have done two after parties for Jowell y Randy in the same night and have also recorded a song with Jomar El Caballo Negro. 2014 is the year working with known producers and artists so stay tune and lookout for us…
