Julieta Emilia Cazzuchelli (born 16 December 1993), known professionally as Cazzu, is an Argentine rapper, singer, poet and writer. Born and raised in Fraile Pintado, Jujuy, she is known widely as "La Jefa" and "Madre del Trap" for being a pioneer in shaping the Latin Trap Movement. Initially gaining popularity with her trap saga "C14torce", she has expanded her sound to include R&B and hip-hop. Her most recent work, Latinaje, explores Andean folklore and traditional sounds, while also dabbling in new genres such as corrido tumbados, described by Rolling Stone as "a sprawling, ambitious, and unifying celebration of Latin American music".
Early life Julieta Emilia Cazzuchelli was born on 16 December 1993 in Fraile Pintado, Jujuy to an Argentine mother and to an Italian father. She had been interested in music since she was eleven years old. She started singing with her father, who was also a musician and who inspired her to become one. When she finished high school, she moved to Tucumán to study cinematography and, some time after, she moved to the Buenos Aires Province to study graphic design.
Career Cazzuchelli started her musical career as a cumbia singer and then as a rock singer. She began as an independent artist, paying for her first recordings and video clips, and under the pseudonym Cazzu, she has emerged as one of the most prominent Argentine trap artists. In an interview with Billboard Argentina, she said: "For me, Cazzu is everything I want to be. She's my alter ego, she's a damn superhero."
She gained popularity in the Latin trap music scene after the release of her collaboration "Loca" with fellow Argentine rappers Khea and Duki. The song gained further popularity following the release of a remix featuring Bad Bunny.
