Life and career

edit

Dímelo Flow began his career as a DJ at 15 years old.[3] When he was 20 years old, he moved to Florida from Panama working for a radio station until he began to work consistently as a DJ for clubs in Tampa, Florida.[3] While in Tampa, Dímelo Flow met Justin Quiles, a successful reggaeton singer-songwriter that was not well known at the time. Soon after meeting, the two began working together and Dímelo Flow began producing his songs. Justin Quiles also introduced him to more artists in the Latin music industry which led him to getting signed by RichMusic.[3]
