Tracing Karol G and her career
Carolina Giraldo Navarro, better known by her stage name Karol G, is a Colombian singer who was born on February 14, 1991. The singer began her career at the age of 14 with her participation in the Columbian edition of the X Factor. After her participation there, she was signed on by Flamingo Records, following which she adopted her stage name formally.
Karol G began releasing singles while studying music at the University of Antioquia, as well as performing as support for artists such as Reykon in 2012. She traveled to Miami shortly after that, where she was declined a contract by Universal.
In an exclusive interview with Papermag in 2019, the singer elaborated on the rejection and how it sparked her career's progression:
"About nine years ago, I went to Miami for the first time; my parents got me a meeting [with the label]. I presented my project, and they liked it. But they said I could maybe be a songwriter, but a woman making reggaeton? That wouldn't work."
She added:
"I always said that if we'd made money per miles, we'd be millionaires. It was a long process... and because of it, I can truly enjoy what's happening now."
Karol G released her debut studio album, Unstoppable, on October 27, 2017. The album was a mild success, peaking at numbers 79 and 192 on the Spanish album chart and the Billboard 200 album chart, respectively.
The singer achieved critical acclaim with her third studio album, KG0516, which was released on March 26, 2021. The album peaked at numbers 3 and 20 on the Spanish and Billboard 200 album charts, respectively.
