Career
Wisin met Yandel in school. They began performing as a duo in the late 1990s and made their album debut in 2000 with Los Reyes del Nuevo Milenio. They later made the jump to a major label in 2003 with Mi Vida... My Life, their first for Universal subsidiary Machete Music. Pa'l Mundo then catapulted them to mainstream success in 2005. Subsequently, Wisin & Yandel established their own label, WY Records, and presented an affiliate group, Los Vaqueros.
In November 2013, after the duo's Líderes tour, the duo went into hiatus, but although rumors saying their split was because of differences between them, Yandel denied those rumors and confirmed they are not disbanded.
Wisin released his first solo album El Sobreviviente in 2004, and ten years later, in 2014, his second solo studio album, El Regreso del Sobreviviente was released.
Wisin & Yandel reunited in 2018 and released their tenth studio album after spending five years apart. The new album was called "Los Campeones del Pueblo / "The Big Leagues".
On July 11, 2018, Telemundo announced Wisin as a coach on La Voz (U.S.). Wisin joined Luis Fonsi, Carlos Vives and Alejandra Guzmán as coaches on the Spanish-language version of NBC singing-competition The Voice.
Personal life
Wisin is married to Yomaira Ortiz Feliciano. The couple married on July 26, 2008, in Wisin's hometown of Cayey, Puerto Rico after four years together. They have three living children; another died at one month of age.
