Early life[edit]

Career[edit]

Faiber Stiven Caicedo Castro, professionally known as V E N E S T I, is a Colombian singer, songwriter, and music producer specializing in the urban genre. Born in 1995 in the lush surroundings of the Pacific jungle, Caicedo's passion for writing emerged at the age of 11. He subsequently moved to Cali to pursue his high school education.

In Cali, often referred to as the "branch of heaven," Caicedo's interest in blending lyrics with melodies deepened. His dedication to music flourished as he spent time in the high school rehearsal room, where his discipline and talent caught the attention of the music director. Recognizing his vocal prowess, particularly in interpreting salsa songs, Caicedo was granted a position as a vocalist in the school orchestra.

By 2015, Caicedo had resolved to make music his career. He experimented with various musical genres before committing to urban music. Over the next four years, he navigated the challenges of establishing himself as an independent artist, including facing industry scams and obstacles.

Caicedo's breakthrough came through collaborative songwriting and music production for other artists. These efforts led to opportunities with AP Global Music, a record label that provided him with the necessary support to develop a professional and impactful international presence. Since 2018, he has been active in the music industry, continually working to advance his career.

2023 Highlights[edit]


In 2023, Venesti made a significant impact on the music industry with his nomination for the iHeart Radio Awards in the Best New Artist of the Year category. His debut album, "De La Nada," was acclaimed as a masterpiece and featured collaborations with notable artists such as Maffio, Nacho, Randy Nota Loca, Dímelo Flow, and Jay Wheeler.

At the 2023 Premios Juventud, his track "Necesidad" received a nomination for Best Urban Track. Venesti's live performance at the event, a medley of "Necesidad" and "Umaye," captivated the audience and reinforced his growing prominence in the industry.

The release of "Goodbye," a collaboration with Jay Wheeler, marked another milestone in Venesti's career. The music video, directed by Gustavo Camacho "Gus," effectively captured the essence of the song and showcased Venesti's artistic evolution and depth.

One of Venesti's most notable achievements in 2023 was the success of his single "Umaye," which reached number one on Billboard's Latin Airplay and Latin Rhythm Airplay charts, outperforming established artists like Karol G, Maluma, and Shakira. This accomplishment underscored his talent and ability to connect with a global audience.

2024 Prospects[edit]
