cultural traditions of his homeland. This

mision is also carried out through his

entrepreneurial efforts as founder and leader

specializing in the development of

independent music artists. Working closely

with producer Aurelio Adasme, his 2020

debut mixtape "Palis" introduced him to the

rising trap movement of Rio Piedras at the

"FELICIDADES FRANKIE" in 2022, PERRERA

demonstrated his ability to elaborate

soundscapes and complex emotive

storytelling. After, 2023 saw the birth of his

collaborative project "BATALLÓN SÓNICO"

Adasme alongside a wide range of

collaborations such as "Código Remix" with

Bendi La Bendición/Julio Del Hoyo and

release of 2024's "FELICIDADES FRANKIE

(DELUXE)" (a compilation of all of the songs

performed and inspired by touring during the

2023 and 2024 era). Currently, he's working

on his upcoming third studio album, inspired

by his experiences as a plena performer with

the Carolina based ensamble TRIPLENA. In

his own words: "soy escritor, baterista

percusionista, rapero, cantante, empresario y

puertorriqueño".
