Yashua Camacho, a Dominican-American performer who works as a singer, songwriter, and dancer, first rose to attention through the talent contest La Banda, which opened the door to his independent career shaped by the styles of Chris Brown and Michael Jackson. He was born in Providence, Rhode Island, then relocated with his brother Richard to Manchester, New Hampshire, where both finished high school. During their senior year in 2015 the brothers joined the debut season of La Banda. Richard claimed the win alongside four other contestants and helped launch the boy band CNCO, while Yashua departed after the opening round. With room to follow his own direction, he started writing material for other acts, among them CNCO’s 2017 hit “Reggaeton Lento.” He also teamed with the electronic artists Matoma and Dillon Francis, and he applied his bilingual skills to joint releases with Jimmy Duval (“Mamasita”), Karloff (“Relax”), Fancy Cars (“Belong to U”), and Samantha Camara (“Into You x Back to Sleep”). Following his signing to Magnus Music, the imprint established by Marc Anthony, Yashua delivered the single “Silencio” in April 2018.
