Welcome to Samy Hawk's official Deezer channel.
Samy Hawk grew up in Caracas, Venezuela, and it was in church where he first acquired his love for music and
dancing, as both of his parents were pastors. He quickly built a name for himself in Venezuela, with his music on
the radio and several national tours, so in 2014, he felt it was time to expand his horizons and move to the US.
Samy grew his US fan base through his TikTok account, which earned him a spot as a contestant on “Becoming
a Popstar,” a music competition co-produced by Pepsi, MTV and TikTok. The five-episode talent competition
series featured star-studded judges Joe Jonas, Becky G, Sean Bankhead and eight up-and-coming artists
originally discovered on TikTok, who were given the opportunity to showcase their talents on MTV and
compete for their chance to be declared the next pop artist in the Pepsi music legacy.
In April of 2022, Samy Hawk was crowned the winner of “Becoming a Popstar,” launching his career into the
stratosphere. Samy describes his sound as rap and hip-hop with elements of EDM and reggaeton. He made his
red-carpet debut at the 2022 VMAs, where his original song and music video, ‘Wild,’ made its world premiere.
