Beret

The Spanish rapper Beret is one of a very select group of Spanish hip-hop artists who have managed to bring their chosen genre to the attention of Spain's mainstream music fans. He was born Francisco Javier Álvarez Beret on July 2, 1996, and after choosing a career in music in his late teens he adopted the mononym Beret. After becoming interested in rap and reggae from a young age, Beret began to produce homemade recordings experimenting with a variety of different genres, some of which he would eventually publish on his video-streaming channel. He made his official debut in 2015 with the mixtapes Vértigo and Efímero, and although these titles achieved no significant commercial success, they did begin to establish a fan base for the artist. Following the release of the mixtapes Ápices, Inéditos, and Temas Inéditos in 2016, Beret signed with Warner Music Group in 2018 and released his highly anticipated studio debut Prisma a year later. The album featured a re-recording of his song “Vuelve” with Colombian singer-songwriter Sebastián Yatra, which further boosted his popularity in Latin America, and the Number 1 hit single “Si Por Mí Fuera.” Following a series of collaborations with singers Lola Índigo, Aitana, Cali y el Dandee, and Morat, Beret returned to the charts in 2022 with the track “El Día Menos Pensado,” which placed at Number 58 on the Spanish Singles Chart.
