Personal life[edit]
Kaponi's life was tragic in many ways. With no family to care for him, he had begun to live in foster homes from when he was seven years old. His parents were drug addicts. He discovered his father's identity at same father's funeral.[1] His mother was a heroin addict. Kaponi was raised by his grandmother until she died of cancer and was then put into foster care because no one in his family wanted to take up his care.[2] He has two daughters.[1]

Kaponi has released one mixtape, El Alpha & El Omega in 2018. He is also known for participating in productions with Don Omar such as Don Omar Presents: Meet the Orphans, which include El Duro, Viviendo Con el Enemigo, and RX.[3] He was also involved in a diss battle against Baby Rasta, Cosculluela[4] and Arcángel.[5]
