La Clave
The founding members of the Reggaeton group, La Clave, are Carlos Cepeda Guzman, a/k/a Carlito El Moreno, Jose Angel Ortiz, a/k/a Menor and Collins McCoy, a/k/a Clemente. Based in central Florida, the threesome developed their musical roots separately and in other locales, but it all came together seamlessly once they decided to pool their talents to create a musical experience that is at the forefront of today’s Latin, reggae & hip hop experience. The only piece necessary to complete the successful launch of this talented threesome was put in place once the guys teamed up with their producer, Ivan Chevere, p/k/a M.A.T.E., whose studio and production skills added the final creative element required to shape the group’s unique sound. Together, La Clave & M.A.T.E have combined their talents to produce an innovative album that’s a fusion of Reggaeton, hip hop and Latin influences which has captured the essence of what’s happening in street music today.
