Don Chezina (real name Ricardo Garcia Ortiz), born in Georgia, U.S. in 1976, is a singer, producer, and talent scout of reggaeton music.^[1] He is known throughout the world for his high, nasal voice and fast rapping style (known as "Puerto Rico's Machine Gun Rapper"), along with his most famous song "Tra Tra Tra".
