Julio Luis Sanchez Melendez aka JL MadSkillz was born in Puerto Rico and now resides in Jacksonville FL. He describes his style as commercial for radio and as versatile for all ages in this urban hip hop reggaeton generation. His first performance was at the age of 17 with a hip hop Christian church in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The reggaeton evolution has open the door’s and P.O.P RECORDS has given JL MadSkillz the opportunity to sign and make his music a reality. JL has waited for his moment and the opportunity to spread his music to the world and with P.O.P RECORDS it will finally happen.
He identifies with
artist inside the reggaeton genre whom deserves respect for there lyrics
and good job of there music like (TEMPO). By being originally from
Puerto Rico and having the ability to understand that reggaeton music
comes from his island he knows the audience will Crete him on his lyrics
and stage persona. What sets JL from the mainstream is the ability to
sing as well as rap inside the music he makes. JL first got turned on to
music since he first had reason and knowledge and knew that music lives
in him. In days like these JL has realize that reggaeton music has open
the doors for so many new people to have the opportunity of making
history and to make sure that his music is heard all over the world and
his songs are loved by every one. People who influence him are his
daughter (very inspirational) to do something for her future and her up
bringing. Also I love my music and I love what I do and live what I say.
