Colombian-born, Miami-raised Multiplatinum, Grammy Award winning Music Producer Born in Colombia and raised in the vibrant city of Miami, Leo “Lowkey” Zapata has become a promising force in today’s music scene. With his eclectic style blending his Colombian musical roots with the raw energy of 90s hip-hop and R&B, Lowkey has carved out a unique space for himself, effortlessly crossing genres like reggaeton, pop, trap, and even commercial music for media sync. Emerging from the heart of Miami’s diverse music landscape, Lowkey grew up surrounded by the pulsating rhythms of Latin music, but it was the boom-bap of hip-hop and the soul of R&B that shaped his creative identity. Drawing from both worlds, he created a sound that is as infectious as it is innovative—rich in melodic flavor, yet grounded in the grit and authenticity of his influences. His recent work has earned him a song on the 7X platinum Shakira’s Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran album, along with his first two Grammy nominations, further cementing his reputation as one of the most versatile and up and coming producers in the industry. Whether crafting anthems for global superstars or scoring music for commercial sync, Lowkey's productions continue to captivate audiences worldwide, seamlessly blending cultures, eras, and genres into a sound that is distinctly his own. As a trailblazer and tastemaker, he’s not just making music—he’s shaping the soundtrack of a generation.
