Juan Pablo Cobo

The art of quick and forceful verses is the talent of Juan Pablo Cobo, better known as Guanaco MC. The artist has 20 years of experience in rap and Ecuadorian hip-hop and is considered a benchmark of the urban genre. Its artistic name derives from the mammal of the páramo, what remembers in its name its place of birth, the Andean city of Ambato. And these are the scenarios that they like to promote in their videos. His last single The original was recorded on the slopes of Pichincha in the traditional neighborhood of La Primavera in Quito. For the rapper the music industry is difficult but he cares about art, what to say. "The driving force of my music is not commerce, but rather a search and a need. Many times what I do does not come from logic but from caprice. For example, vinyl was imported from France, but it could be easier to record it on a CD or upload it to streaming platforms. "
