Trueno

Mateo Palacios Corazzina (La Boca, 25 March 2002), known artistically as Trueno, is an Argentinian rapper and songwriter. Established as one of the most prominent figures in Argentina's urban music scene, he is distinguished by an evolution that began in hip hop culture and freestyle. His musical approach is characterised by the exploration of styles such as rap, trap, R&B and reggaeton. With lyrics that often reflect his roots, life in his native neighbourhood and a commitment to Argentine cultural identity, he has managed to get hits into the popularity charts and to collaborate with artists of global renown.​​​

He began his career in freestyle battles at the age of fourteen, when he took part in the Buenos Aires tournaments 'A Cara de Perro Zoo Juniors' and 'Red Bull Regional'. The following year he was crowned champion of the 'A Cara de Perro Zoo Juniors' competition. He later took part in several freestyle tournaments, both national and international.

In 2017, backed by the record label Neuen, he launched his musical career with his debut single 'K.I.N.G.', and that same year he was crowned champion of the 'Cruce de Campeones' competition. Trueno gained considerable prominence by recording 'BZRP Freestyle Sessions, Vol. 6' and 'BZRP Music Sessions, Vol. 16', and after winning the Freestyle Master Series tournaments in Argentina and the Argentine edition of Red Bull's Batalla de Gallos. Following this success, he announced his retirement from freestyle battles and focused mainly on his music career.

In 2020 he released his debut studio album, Atrevido, under the Neuen record label and distributed by Sony Music Latin. In 2022 he released his second studio album, titled Bien o mal, through his label Sur Capital Records. In 2024 he published his third studio album, El último baile, which consists of thirteen songs.
