About Pepe Aguilar

 
Being born in a family that had a passion for music, Aguilar was always interested in music and singing. He discovered his musical abilities at quite an early age as his parents supported him in learning how to sing and play music. Along with some of his friends, he formed a band while as a teenager and named it Equs. The band, although, could not continue for a long time, but was successful enough that they recorded their first album. It was basically a venture of friends who were trying to experiment with their voices and music in a quest to discover their hidden abilities.
 
Among the personalities and bands that influenced Pepe Aguilar in his early age were included The Who and Pink Floyd, as he himself narrates it. He used to listen to their songs and tried to sing along and copy them. His earlier musical work also gives a clear evidence of how much he wanted to be like them and his music reflects these influences.
 
In 1990s, Pepe Aguilar decided to work as a record producer and found this business profitable. Some of his produced songs include those of Julieta Venegas, Lupita D’Alessio and others. Nevertheless, he continued to sing and produce his own music side by side and released his album in 1998 with the title Por Mujeres Como Tu. The album was a great hit, selling over two million copies worldwide. Billboard featured this album for about 52 weeks. The success of his first solo album provided Aguilar great encouragement and he released another album in 1999 with the title Por Una Mujer Bonita. The new release was even a bigger hit and won him a Latin Grammy.
 
During his career, Pepe Auilar has been nominated for Grammy Award nine times, an honor that remains a dream for most of the singers. He also performed at Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, California in 2002, being the first Mexican ever to sing at that legendary venue. Another privilege that he has is that of being the first Latino singer to perform at Kodak Theater in Los Angeles. He was also given the keys of the city of Los Angeles at a ceremony that was attended by a huge crowd of over a 20,000 people in 2003 as an acknowledgement of his untiring efforts for music. He also celebrated the Mexican War of Independence in 2003 as his descent is basically Mexican. Pepe Aguilar followed the footsteps of his father who also had the privilege to receive the keys of city of Los Angeles.
 
Being a traditional mariachi singer, Pepe Aguilar’s public appearance also reflects his style of music. He is generally seen wearing a rodeo outfit called charro, along with cowboy hat and boots. He is still considered an icon of Mexican style and music. During the historical event of Super Welterweight Showdown that took place between Floyd Mayweather Jr and Oscar De-la-Hoya in 2007, Pepe Aguilar sang the Mexican National Anthem. The attendance at that event was one of the largest ever in the history of boxing.
 
Another aspect of Pepe Aguilar’s professional life started in 2009 when he stepped into fashion designing and launched his label Pepe Aguilar Signature Collection. It was again a success and Aguilar has plans to extend this project further.
