Mario Tanaka

Mario Tanaka is a Guatemalan rapper and reggaeton artist known for his genre-blending tracks that mix Latin urban vibes with playful, cannabis-friendly themes. Rising from Guatemala City’s underground scene, Tanaka’s music—like the cheeky "Cuatro Veinte" and "Americannabis"—often nods to pop culture and street life, blending Spanish lyrics with dancehall rhythms and trap beats. His releases, including "Guate City" and "Pum Pum Killa," showcase his knack for catchy hooks and collaborations with Central American artists, carving out a space for Guatemala’s urban sound in the wider Latin music landscape. While keeping his personal life low-key, his work celebrates his roots and the carefree, rebellious energy of millennial Latinx culture.
