Natalia Alexandra Gutiérrez Batista, artistically known as Natti Natasha, is a Dominican singer and songwriter of reggaeton, Latin pop, and bachata, born in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic, on December 10, 1986.
At the age of 14, she began composing and recording her own songs and formed the musical group “D'Style,” which disbanded due to its lack of success. After reevaluating her career and deciding to launch herself as a solo artist, trying her luck in the urban genre, Natti, alongside her friend, the successful music producer link- On of Orfanato Music Group, began working in his studio on some of her tracks when, by chance, Don Omar heard her. Impressed by her talent, he recorded the song Dutty Love with her. The track, which is tropical and pop in style and co-written with Don Omar, is a single from Don Omar's compilation album MTO 2: New Generation, released in 2011, with which the artists won three Billboard Latin Awards.
Later, he recorded several songs such as: “Your Memory”, "Together We Can Fly" with Henry Santos, "Grind", "They Told You Remix" with Plan B, among others. He also collaborated with Farruko on "Crazy In Love". In 2015, Don Omar and Natti reunite to record the song Lost in Your Eyes, which is part of the Puerto Rican reggaeton artist's sixth album The Last Don 2. The song surpassed 100 million views on Vevo and won platinum certification in Spain that year.
In 2017, in collaboration with his compatriot Ozuna, he released the single Criminal from the Puerto Rican's album La Súper Fórmula. The music video for the song achieved over two billion views on YouTube and paved the way for the Puerto Rican to enter the Billboard Hot 100, the premier chart of the 100 best-selling singles in the United States. As a result of this success, Natti Natasha was the most searched woman on the Internet in 2017.
In 2018, alongside the American singer of Mexican descent, Becky G, she released "Sin pijama." Produced, among others, by Daddy Yankee, the song was launched as the fifth single from Becky G's debut album in Spanish, becoming Becky and Natasha's third top 10 hit on the US Hot Latin Songs chart and reaching number one in Bolivia and Spain, as well as the top 10 in other Latin American countries. The track achieved a Latin platinum certification in the U.S. and surpassed 100 million views on YouTube / Vevo within three weeks of its release.
Among her most well-known hits are "No me acuerdo" in collaboration with the Mexican singer Thalía, from Thalía's fourth studio album, Valiente (2018). The remix of "Dura" (from Daddy Yankee's album El Disco Duro, 2018), featuring Daddy Yankee, Bad Bunny, and Becky G.
Between 2018 and 2019, she was nominated in several categories, winning more than 15 awards at major events that recognize the best in Latin music. Her collaborations turn into instant hits, skyrocketing streams on digital platforms.
