About Me
Koqui Bio Born in Mayaguez, Puerto Rico on November 7th 1985 and given the name, Joel Ramos. Koquis musical background was influenced at an early age by his father who was a musician that played with artists such as Hector Lavoe (a well respected artist in the Puertorican community). Koquis pastime consisted of studying music tracks and albums of the new generation of reggaeton artists. Breaking down the lyric contents and memorizing entire songs was effortless for Koqui. In the summer of 2001 a voyage was laid down, he was heading to the West Coast, California. Living with his sister and brother in law, Koqui found comfort by listening and continuing to share his knowledge on reggaeton. With his brother in law in the party scene and an entertainment influence in the bay area, they continued to push el genero. Hed share new music and pushed it to the underground DJs. Koqui took part in the development of the first reggaeton promotion company, of the bay area CaliTon Entertainment. With his passion for pushing el genero Koqui began to work for the bay areas radio station Univisions La Kalle 100.7/105.7, where you can listen out for him every morning during the morning show. Meeting Elias a.k.a. Ciboney, has become a memorable friendship as the two shared musical influences and a Caribbean background. They created the dual known as Ciboney Y Koqui. Koqui has completed four promising tracks with Ciboney and opened up for Don Omar, recently performing for the West Coast Puertorican Festival in Northern Cal. Koqui is now working on his solo project with Beat$treet$ Production on new material that includes, Loco, Dumb, y Hyphie, Dama Elegante and Koqueteo which combines the reggaeton melody seasoned with the newest spices of the Bay Area sounds. Koqui continues his humbleness and wishes someday to be a positive difference to el genero, family and friends..bbzs2 {content:"Table and Section Properties";}
