Early life[edit]
Bryant Myers was born in Puerto Rico in a neighborhood called Loma Alta. He grew up in what he describes as a hazardous environment (in the alleys and streets). "Sometimes we did not have breakfast or lunch, my mom could not buy me some sneakers, that made me want to make a lot of money to have my family well, and that my mother and my brother did not miss anything",[3] relates Bryant on an interview with Infobae. Bryant started writing songs in his home while he studied. He later left his studies in order to pursue his music career.
Career[edit]
Bryant Myers' first hit Esclava[1] put him on the radar with some well known reggaeton and urban artists, which allowed him to participate in a series of collaborations with charting artists. He followed it with Esclava Remix, featuring Anonimus (his cousin Luis Beauchamp), Anuel AA and Almighty. The latter track garnered over a million views on YouTube in less than three months. Esclava currently has 98 million views (as of May 1, 2018). Follow-up singles Tu Me Enamoraste and its remix with Lary Over and Brytiago, as well as De Camino a Marte, performed just as well. He has continued to issue digital and video singles at a rate of at least one a month. In June 2016, he released Vente Encima, featuring Anonimus, Noriel and Riko "El Bendecido", and guested on DJ Nelson's Volverte a Ver and Noriel's La Llamada Remix. In July 2016, he was a featured guest on Farruko's hit single Ella y Yo along with Almighty and Anuel AA, and Esclava was re-released as a digital download.
