Biography
Reggaeton star Tego Calderon grew up in a household where salsero Ismael Rivera was god ("Our Elvis Presley," Calderon says) and music was central. But Calderon's musical sensibility is less about the salsa of his native Puerto Rico and more about the sounds that move urban Latinos these days: Jamaican dancehall and rap. Calderon's 2003 debut, Abayarde, climbed the charts as soon as it was released.
