Lemuell continues his meteoric rise as one of the most thrilling fresh voices revitalizing the urban music scene. His latest release, “Marquesa,” is a vibrant anthem that encapsulates the carefree spirit of youth through its lyrics and accompanying video.
With an infectious beat and catchy chorus, the 19-year-old sings about a summer crush, highlighting the playful tension of neither person making the first move. The verses celebrate friendship, living in the moment, and embracing life, perfectly mirrored by the video shot in Puerto Rico and directed by Jonah Díaz for Third Eye Productions. The music video captures this irresistible energy, featuring Lemuell and friends on a spontaneous road trip to the beach that ends with a campfire.
“It’s the universal feeling of youthful carefreeness, of freedom, and the sense that anything is possible,” says Lemuell. With fresh beats and catchy lyrics, he delivers a summer anthem that deserves a spot on everyone’s playlist.
In addition, this past July 25th the rising star made his red carpet debut at Premios Juventud, captivating both media and fans.

Born and raised in Puerto Rico, Lemuell, at just 19, has already left his mark on the music scene by becoming one of the most exciting new voices in the urban genre, and he’s just getting started. From an early age, four years-old to be precise, he showed an innate interest in music by composing with his parents—both amateur musicians—thus laying the foundation for his career. In addition to composing, Lemuell is a talented percussionist, excelling on the drums, a talent which allows him to fuse rhythms and create innovative sounds that appeal to a wide audience. Lemuell has established his musical brand by giving us an eclectic fusion of various influences, including reggaeton icon Don Omar to contemporary artists like Arcángel and Tory Lanez, passing through the soul and experimentation of Frank Ocean and Brent Faiyaz, as well as the lyrical wit of Tyler the Creator and Bryson Tiller; his style is truly unique and diverse. His talent has earned the respect of his colleagues, collaborating with prominent artists who lead the new urban wave, such as Derek Santana, Jotaerre, Bernier, Sanchz, Josem, Villafañe, Younghokage, Alura el Sol, Chalko and JS Beatz.
Lemuell has been releasing music nonstop this year, starting with his debut EP *F.O.M.O.*, which served as an introduction to the musical landscape. This was followed by the energetic “Mensajes Ficticios” and “Embuste,” which is already gaining traction in TikTok since its release back in June.
With much more music on the way including an album slated for later this year, Lemuell’s star continues to rise cementing his status as an artist to watch.
