Maluma

Juan Luis Londoño Arias, best know as Maluma is a Colombian singer-songwriter. He was born in 1994 in Medellín. He is 21 years old now, but he started his carreer at an early age, achiening recognition in all Latinoamérica. Before he became a singer he wanted to be a football player, he practiced this sport for eight years, straight getting to be at the team Atlético Nacional and Equidad Club Deportivo. After years he left his dream of becoming a football player, because things got complicated. At 17 years old when he was finishing school he decided to enter the world of music, he surprised a production team who offered to record an album, but with a name more easy and catchy, so he chose Maluma for her mom, dad and sister and released his first song "Farándula". 

In 2014 Maluma published three new singles for his new album, "Addicted", "La Curiosidad" and "Carnaval". He was algo present at the "Youth Awards" Gala, where for the first time he was confirmed to be judge at the program "The Voice Kids" Colombia. He was nominated for favorite singer, best singer and best song at the Kid's Choice Awards Colombia, winning the trophy for the best song. 

Actually Maluma has been single for all these years, he has never been in a formal relationship. He still lives in Medellín working on a new album. He is coming soon to Chile for the first time! .
