Becky G

Singer-rapper-dancer-actress Becky G was discovered in 2011 after posting remix videos of herself on YouTube. Born Rebbeca Marie Gomez in 1997, the California girl decided at the age of 9 that she wanted to be an entertainer. Commercial work followed, as did a pair of failed attempts at forming successful girl groups. She soon began posting videos on YouTube, and her cover of Kanye West and Jay-Z’s ‘Otis’ earned her a contract with Dr. Luke. The teen started writing and appearing on tracks by the likes of Cody Simpson and Cher Lloyd. Becky’s ‘Play It Again’ EP dropped in 2013 and included the track ‘Can’t Get Enough’ featuring Pitbull. The Latina beauty became the face of CoverGirl later that year.

Los Angeles rapper Becky G pays tribute to one of her personal "idols," former reality TV judge Jennifer Lopez, with her latest video for 'Becky From the Block.' Not only does she rap over J. Lo's original 'Jenny From the Block' beat, she also borrowed the chorus (changing the lines up a bit to fit her "rags to riches" motif) from the 2002 mega hit.
