Early life

Angeliq was born Mariah Angelique Pérez in Miami, Florida, to a Cuban father and Puerto Rican mother. She was named after Mariah Carey, she and her mother's favorite singer. Her first language was Spanish, but she quickly learned English when she was enrolled in school in New Jersey.[1]

Career

Mariah Angeliq began writing music at the age of 16, and ran away from her home to follow her music career. She crossed paths with reggaetón producer Nely, who guided her as a young artist and helped introduce Spanish music and lyrics into her repertoire.[2] She signed with Universal Music Latino in 2018.[3] She released her first single "Blah" on June 28, 2018.[1] On July 31, 2020, Angeliq released her first EP, Normal.[4] Angeliq released a single with J Álvarez and Marie Monti titled "Billete" on March 5, 2021.[5]

Angeliq was a featured artist on Colombian singer Karol G's #1 hit album KG0516 (2021), singing a duet on the track "El Makinon". The two would go on to perform the song live at the Premios Lo Nuestro awards show in April 2021. They also filmed a provocative music video for the song on the streets of New York City, the two singers depicting a modern-day "Thelma and Louise" by portraying the lives of two female criminals. "El Makinon", as a single, undoubtedly became one of Angeliq's, and Karol G's, most successful musical ventures to date: since the video was uploaded to Youtube in March of 2021, it has amassed 962 million views and 4.7 million 'likes' on the platform, as of July 2023.[6] Puerto Rican rapper Ivy Queen is Angeliq’s musical idol.

Personal life

Angeliq was reported to be dating actor Max Ehrich in November 2020.[8] As of May 2021, she is currently dating actor and musician Roshon Fegan.[9]
