I have always loved the band named Calle 13, but I love more the vocalist Residente, he was born in Puerto Rico, he is a raper,producer and composer. He is characterized by his lyrics that have political and social content. He has recived a lot of awards for his music and his social activities. And that´s the thing that I more admire of him, because he is very active and helpfull in the social part. For example, everywhere he has been invited, he brings something written on his shirt, arms or back, messages that are incetive for the people to keep fighting for their rights. Also with his band he joined the UNICEF in a compaing against human trafficking and exploitation of teenagers and children. Besides he made a lot of benefit concert to help people that surfer a natural disaster, and he didn´t earn money for those concerts, he just asked for some food and basical hygienic elements. He had recived important accomplishments a few of them and which I considered more important are the "Nobel Summit Peace Award" thanks to his social labors and the inspirational of his lyrics. He recived it in November of 2015. Another award that he recived in 2012 was the "Rodolfo Wash award" for contributing to the comunication and popular culture.
Finally, I would like to add, that Residente apart from being a Social activist, he is also a education persistent. In 2011 he reunited with the leaderers of the Chilean education, to support the fight of a free, quality and public education.
I like Calle 13, my favourite song is "Así de grandes son las ideas", and this guy is a good person
