RKM & Ken-Y

RKM & Ken-Y is a popular urbano latino group from Puerto Rico, formed on January 1, 2003.

José Nieves (RKM) and Kenny Vázquez (Ken-Y), both of Gurabo, Puerto Rico, were a Grammy Award-nominated reggaetón duo. The duo started their career of music in high school. RKM (formerly known as "Rakim" but changed to avoid confusion with established Hip-Hop artist Rakim) was inspired by the recent explosion of reggaeton music in the 90's. He encouraged Ken-Y to join him to form a duo. They later would perform at sweet 16 birthday parties and public events. . Popular albums include "Masterpiece: Nuestra Obra Maestra".
