XRIZ
Bookings by arrangement with Deep Delay Management
Cristian Rodriguez, known as XRIZ (pronounced CRIS) has collaborated with artists such as Ana Mena, La Materialista, Fuego, Buxxi, McDavo, Dynell, Benji & Fede amongst others.
Born in Santa Cruz de Tenerife in 1993, his first steps in the world of music started by recording his songs with bass lines that were downloaded from the Internet, he added lyrics written by him and then he uploaded them online.
His first music video made with Ermétiko, CHK, Sáik and Young Killer, called “Mirame Ahora”, marked a before and after in XRIZ’s musical career. From then on, all of them jumped to fame, becoming known mainly through social networks.
Between 2011 and 2012, without any record company involved, he performed a large number of concerts outside the Canary Islands, thus achieving growing recognition and popularity. This led to him signing for Juan Magán’s company at the beginning of 2012. However, at the end of 2012 he signed a contract with Clever Music. This company helped XRIZ to release his first single “Me Enamore” in 2013, which became a great success, and gave him the opportunity to perform in more than 100 concerts in Spain throughout that year. In addition to this, he managed to appear in all the teenage magazines doing interviews. He was nominated for the 2013 National Revelation Artist at the Los 40 Principales awards. “Me Enamore” was included in compilation albums like Big Brother 14, Disco Estrella vol.16 and Mujeres y Hombres y Viceversa. In 2014 he performed in some of Spain’s most popular television shows, the likes of: Sálvame Diario, El Programa de Ana Rosa and Sálvame Deluxe, amongst others.
With his album “Adiccion”, XRIZ achieved a TOP 5 in Spain’s official sales charts. His YouTube channel has over 200 million views.
During the following years XRIZ has participated musically in advertising campaigns with Atresmedia (El Estirón), has been included in more summer compilation albums and has made multiple interviews and appearances in the media, launching his new and exciting projects.
