Nicky Jam Biography (Age)
It was in 1981, precisely on March 17, that this reggaeton hitmaker was born and was named Nick Rivera Caminero by his Puerto Rican father and Dominican mother. His birthplace was Boston, Massachusetts.
From True to Your Skin to I’m Not Your Husband, Time Flies and I’m Going Gone Boyfriend, Nick is widely admired and celebrated for being the mastermind behind several hit songs.
Although Nick was born in Boston, he moved to Cataño Puerto when he was 10 years old and spent the rest of his childhood there. It was in Cataño that he began his career as an eleven-year-old boy, releasing his 1994 album, Distinto A Los Demás.
As far as we know, Nicky hasn’t imagined becoming a superstar or even taking on such a responsibility as doing the official FIFA World Cup song.
He was a boy from a poor family and only took up rapping and improvising performances as a way to calm himself down when not working with his parents in a supermarket. Yes, he worked as a child to help his parents take care of his family.
As fate would have it, Nicky was entertaining a small gathering outside the supermarket when he was spotted by a woman working for a record company. She urged the guy to sign a recording contract and pursue a career in the music industry. Nick’s father signed the deal, marking the birth of the man now esteemed as Nicky Jam.
His wife – Nicky’s relationship with Angélica Cruz
It has been speculated over several quarters that Nicky Jam is married to Filipino actress Angelika Dela Cruz, possibly because of her name. This is however not the case, as Angelika has been married since 2008 to Orion Casareo, while Nicky only got married in February 2017 to Angélica Cruz, a Colombian model and TV host whom he met online. .
Jam once revealed that he was captivated by the woman who is now his wife the first time he met her. He was very delighted to have sent him a direct message with his photo offering him to become friends.

They married in Medellin, Colombia; it was a private ceremony attended by other entertainment industry superstars, such as Vin Diesel and J. Balvin.
