Encyclopedia > Jose Miguel Class

Jose Miguel Class (born c. 1945, in Manati, Puerto Rico) is a Puerto Rican singer who gained wide international fame during the 1960s and 1970s.


Nicknamed "El Gallito de Manati" ("Manati's Bantam"), Class achieved fame in Puerto Rico during the 60's before moving to Mexico, where he achieved wide success. His period as a resident there proved important for his career: He released various Mexican music albums and he was able to achieve fame across Central America, South America and the rest of the Caribbean.


When Class returned to Puerto Rico during the decade of the 70's, he immediately landed a weekly television show, which he co-hosted with Awilda (Awilda La Mimosa) Pedrosa. His adopted Mexican accent was noticeable during the run of this show; as a matter of a fact, he kept the Mexican accent for a very long time. He was also known for his famous catchphrase "Yo soy el Gallo!" ("I am the Bantam!")


Class has now retired to lead a more private life in his hometown of Manati. He released over 20 albums, many of which have been converted into CD format.
