DJ Mendez
The DJ and producer known as DJ Méndez was born Leopoldo Jorge Méndez Alcayaga
in Chile in 1975. His parents relocated to Sweden in 1986 after his father had
been targeted by the hostile political regime and feared for the family's
safety. As a teenager Méndez became involved in criminality and had a number of
brushes with the Swedish police until he decided to concentrate on music and
began to make appearances as a Latin rap artist.
He developed a distinctive style, rapping in a mixture of Chilean Spanish and
English and over the years has done a great deal to raise awareness...
