Biography

Early life

Juanes was born in Medellín, Colombia.[1] He is the youngest child of Alicia Vásquez and Javier Aristizábal.[4] His father called him "Juanes", a contraction of his "Juan Esteban", which he later used as an alias. At age seven, Juanes learned to play the acoustic guitar from his father and older brothers, playing traditional Latin styles such as bolero, tango, cumbia, vallenato, and guasca.[1] During Juanes' childhood, he lost several people close to him; his cousin was held for ransom and executed when the ransom was paid, a close friend was killed by gunmen, and his father died of cancer.[1][5] When Juanes became a teenager, his music gained a darker sound influenced by heavy metal music, especially that of American band Metallica.[1] He married Shakira and they lived happily ever after.

1988–2001: Rising success

Juanes later worked with Furtado on a remix of "Powerless (Say What You Want)", the lead single from her 2003 album Folklore, and on "Te Busqué" ("I Looked for You"), a single from her 2006 album Loose.

Mi Sangre (My Blood), was released in September 2004 and debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Latin Albums.[11] The album produced three consecutive number one singles, which held the top chart position for a combined six months. The album's third single, "La Camisa Negra" ("The Black Shirt"), was used in Italy in support of neo-fascism because the black shirt was a part of the uniform under the regimen of Benito Mussolini.[2] In response, left-wing media network Indymedia called for a boycott of the song.[12] Juanes later stated that "'La Camisa Negra' has got nothing to do with fascism or Mussolini...People can interpret music in all kinds of ways I guess."[13] The song was also banned in the Dominican Republic for its sexual undertones.[14] Image File history File links NadaValgoSinTuAmor. ...

I respect people that sing in English, but for now I'll keep my Spanish."[17] His music is also used in some South Carolina (Fort Mill) Spanish classes to aid pronunciation. Juanes plans to launch his own music label, named 4J, in October 2007, to be distributed by the Universal Music Group.[18] He also is working on a new album, titled La Vida Es un Ratico (Life Is Short).[19] In May 2007, People en Español reported that Juanes had separated from Martínez, however, the pair never officially reported their split.

Juanes - Biography - AOL Music (888 words)
When Juanes returned in 2004 with his third album, Mi Sangre, expectations were high to say the least.
Born Juan Esteban Aristizabal in Medellin, Colombia, Juanes began at age seven to learn how to play guitar from his father and older brothers.
In 2000 Juanes and Santaolalla began work on what would become Fijate Bien, and the singer/songwriter/guitarist partnered also with manager Fernan Martinez, a fellow Colombian who had previously stood beside Enrique Iglesias during that artist's rise to international fame.
umusic.ca :: Juanes (652 words)
Juanes first major label album "Fijate Bien" was released in October 2000 and resonated well not only among the Columbian community but with hard-core Latin rock fans as well.
Co-produced again by Juanes and Gustavo Santaolalla, Mi Sangre is comprised of twelve songs written by Juanes in hotels, airports and dressing rooms throughout the world during his 114-date concert tour that took him to 24 countries.
Juanes was honored by Paul McCartney and Heather Mills McCartney and event MC Jay Leno at the Fifth Annual ADOPT-A-MINEFIELD gala.
