Regarded as the “King of Latin Pop”, Enrique Iglesias is a bilingual singer, songwriter, actor, and music producer. He was born in Madrid, Spain with two older siblings and a father who was also a popular musician, Julio Iglesias. Enrique started his career in 1995 on a Spanish American record label– Fonovisa Records. Around five years after his start Enrique had made a successful crossover into American mainstream music and signed a $68 million dollar contract with Universal Music Latin Entertainment for Spanish music releases and Interscope Records for English music releases. Connecting strongly with both music markets, Enrique was something beyond what the average artist could offer at the time. After making many of his greatest hits with these two labels, in 2015 Iglesias signed with Sony Music. As of 2017 Iglesias has over 150 number one hits across all of the Billboard charts and has sold over 159 million records— making him one of the best selling Spanish artists of all time.
