The internet has helped a lot of young people become famous, including Becky G, an American singer, rapper, and songwriter whose real name is Rebecca Marie Gomez. It wouldn’t be inaccurate to refer to Becky G as the “Internet’s child” given how well she utilized YouTube to post videos showcasing her skills and gaining notoriety. No of the genre, Becky likes to experiment and flaunt her rap prowess since she feels that music completes her. Becky’s path to success was not straightforward because she experienced a severe financial crisis as a young child, but she never gave up hope. When she was younger, she started working and used to take breaks by playing baseball and soccer, cooking traditional Mexican food with her grandmother, and helping her mother with home duties. She believes that patience—both with oneself and those around one—is the key to success.

The Epic Ascent To Stardom

With her breakthrough single “Becky from the Block” and the song “Play it Again” in 2013, Becky G rose to fame. Five tracks made up her debut EP, also titled “Play It Again,” including the title track, which debuted in the top 100 on iTunes the day after its release. Becky’s song “Shower,” which was published in 2014 by Kemosabe Records and RCA Records, became the singer’s first to reach the top twenty of the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States.

From the age of 12, Becky G showed an interest in rap music, and in 2011, she started posting dance and singing videos on YouTube. Both the 2012 remix of “Die Young” by American recording artist Kesha and the 2012 smash song “Wish U Were Here” by Cody Simpson featured the adolescent. Becky was a featured singer in the song “Oath” by British pop diva Cher Lloyd.

The spunky girl has signed a contract with Dr. Luke’s Sony Music Entertainment brand Kemosabe/RCA. The singer has also been in a variety of television programs, and she will soon be seen in “Power Rangers.”

Why Becky G Is So Unique?

The diva loved traditional Mexican Ranchera melodies and grew up listening to the Temptations, Etta James, and James Brown. At the tender age of nine, the child considered providing financial support for the family. She persuaded her parents to agree to let her try out for ads. The girl was ridiculed by her classmates and had a difficult time at school, but she was successful in getting commercials from Disney Channel and Nickelodeon.

The aspiring rapper began creating her tracks and used GarageBand to record them when she was 11 years old. Three songs, “Otis,” “Lighters,” and “Novacane,” were produced by The Jam, Mike Mani, and Jordan Omley, after Becky turned 13 years old. Becky G, who is now 18, received such much attention with her work that in 2016, both Latina and Seventeen Prom featured her on their covers.

Marie’s Past Fame

Despite becoming famous at such a young age, Becky G is still a nice and straightforward person. She travels the globe and has a sizable fan base, but when she returns home, her parents want her to assist them in running the household by doing tasks like cleaning, doing the dishes, and watching over her younger siblings.

The multi-talented young lady not only has a golden voice but also has a gift for writing and playing the guitar. She is currently pursuing both her musical career and her burgeoning acting career in cinema and television.

Marie’s Individual Life

Alejandra and Francisco “Frank” Gomez are the parents of Becky G, who is of Mexican ancestry. She is the eldest of four siblings and was born and reared in Inglewood, California. Stephanie is Becky’s sister, and she has two brothers named Frankie and Alex.

In 2007, the family had to relocate to a garage that had been converted into her grandparents’ Los Angeles home after losing their home owing to a financial crisis. Around this time, she started working to help support her family. The upcoming rapper attended a public school but decided to convert to home learning after experiencing bullying there.

After five months of dating, Becky G and her boyfriend, American singer-songwriter Austin Mahone, called it quits in August 2015. Becky G revealed her relationship with American soccer player Sebastian Lletget during a 2016 performance at the iHeartRadio. The singer shared photographs of herself with Sebastian on Instagram and also shared a video of them kissing on the platform.
