Karlos Rosé is a New York bachata, R&B, and pop singer. He emigrated to the United States from the Dominican Republic at the age of six. Though he has been singing since he was old enough to talk, his professional career began at the age of 18 on the Divertido con Jochy television program. As a result of his performance, he was signed to a deal with the Universal Latino-distributed Machete Music. His debut single, a cover of Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are," hit the various charts in 2012, as did "Infiel" (2013), followed by three more charting singles and videos in subsequent years: "Infiel" (2013), "Niña de Mi Corazón" (2014), and "Mi Lugar Es Contigo." His debut album, Geminis, arrived in 2015. ~ Thom Jurek
