Biography[]

Aventura[]

Santos began her career as a singer participating in various children music groups.[3] Her big break came in 2002 when she contributed her voice alongside Romeo Santos in the single "Obsesión", from the album We Broke the Rules by bachata band Aventura.[1][4] The song was a huge hit in several territories, topping the charts in countries such as Austria,[5] Belgium,[6] France,[7] Germany,[8] Italy[9] and Switzerland.[10]

Her collaboration with Aventura continued in the album Love & Hate, in which she contributed her voice in the song "La guerra".[11] In 2005 she again appeared alongside Romeo Santos in the song "Angelito", which entered the number 17 position in Billboard Tropical Airplay chart.[12]

Solo career[]

After finishing her collaboration with Aventura and appearing as a guest artist in the songs "Yo quiero saber" and "Tú y yo" by Toby Love, Santos began a solo career in the mid-2010s. Her first single, titled "Tú tienes tu vida" and released in 2015, made an impact on Billboard's tropical music chart. A year later she recorded a new collaboration with Toby Love in the song "No hay colores", which was among the most outstanding Latin songs in Canada.[13]

After releasing the singles "Secreto", "Loca" and "Demos paso al amor" and the live album Judy Santos Live, recorded during a virtual performance during the Covid-19 Pandemic quarantine,[14] Santos collaborated with Wilmore "Bimbo" Franco on the song "All By Myself", which was included in the album Classic American Tunes in Bachata (2020).
