We dive deep into the life of the legendary Frankie Cutlass, the man behind the timeless anthem “Puerto Rico” 🇵🇷🎶.
The ICONIC DJ/Producer opens up about turning his life over to God after surviving a dark chapter in his youth, when his life was threatened over false accusations of snitching within his crew. He talks about growing up in Spanish Harlem, being raised by a strong Puerto Rican mother who worked hard to support nine children, and the moment she sacrificed to buy him his first DJ equipment so he could chase his dreams early on.
The convo dives into the golden era of Spanish Harlem, where Frankie came up alongside icons like Marc Anthony, freestyle greats T.K.A., Cynthia, and more showing how one neighborhood produced a generation of Latin music superstars.
He also shared how it felt hearing his anthem “Puerto Rico” echo through the Super Bowl Halftime Show when Jennifer Lopez performed to it - surely one of the proudest and most emotional moments of his life, a true full-circle celebration of his culture and roots on one of the biggest stages in the world.
Frankie also breaks down: His first big radio break thanks to Funkmaster Flex. Working with Biggie Smalls and NYC hip-hop legends + touring the world and staying grounded in faith and culture
It’s a story of faith, legacy, and the power of music: straight from one of New York’s most respected DJs and producers.
