Biography of Makaraka
In 1978, in Dominican Republic, Jhosy Rodriquez was born to Josefina and Guarino Rodriguez Ortiz, in the neighborhood Pueblo Nuevo in Santiago. He went to school at Colegio Padre Villini. At the age of 13 he was able to live the dream of many Dominicans. He immigrated with his family to the United States planting their roots in Harlem, New York. The Rodriguez family lived in the Grant projects on 125th, in between the African American culture. Bring Dominican though, and with his music in his blood, he began a small DJ company with his brothers Elvin, Danny, Joel, Haydee, Nena and his cousins Will y Frank. With his "Dominicanidad" and his love for his music and his country, it occurred to him to write songs and perform them at his school. He hyped up his lunch hour and his friends surrounded him to hear his songs and his flow. During his high school and college years he worked in McDonald's, Fayva Shoe Store, Doctor Jays and Mega 97.9.
At a young age he found his other half, his present wife and mother to his four children, Walkiris Rodriguez.
With is ambition for music he came to prove his talent in front of Norty Cotto and the record label Cutting Records belonging to Aldo Y Amado Marin. This label gave him the opportunity to become a part of Grupo Sancocho. With his unique ideas and style, Grupo Sancocho left a mark on the history of merengue house, with hits like "Tumba la Casa", "Mujeres de Farmacia" and "Se Parece a Ti". He then went on to record a reggaeton album with the record label Univision Música Group, under the name Jhosy & Baby Q.
After his long absence, Jhosy Rodriguez decided to return to his people with the music of his people. MaKaRaKa, is short for Macarakachimba which is a town in Africa. His friends blessed him with this name and from there came "MaKaRaKa y La Grande Liga", with a unique and impeccable style of Merengue Tipico live but with an urban flow, bilingual lyrics and contagious scenarios. Humble and sincere Jhosy (MaKaRaKa) will make his last attempt at the music industry with an production like none before. A production filled with songs that have left the public wanting more! Songs like "Sexy Back", "Saka Waka", "La Tiradera" and "You Don't Know Me" will all be a part of this album that, until now, will be the most anticipated. MaKaRaKa Y La Grande Liga's album will be titled "Rock On!" under his own record label Rock On ent.
