Daddy Yankee, is a record-breaking rapper, singer, songwriter, actor, and icon. In his first book, ReaDY, published simultaneously in English and Spanish he shares the story of his journey from Puerto Rico to global fame, his brush with death, the reclaiming of his faith, and how tests of strength can transform your life.

ReaDY, is an inspirational guide to building the life you dream of in a book threaded through with the story of his rise from the streets of Puerto Rico to international superstardom. When he found himself at the wrong end of a gun, the victim of a random shooting that brought him face-to-face with mortality and ended his dream of becoming a professional baseball player, Raymond had to find a new path. He set his sights on his other passion—making music.

In this collection of lessons learned in his now three-decade long career, DY shares the roots of the set of convictions that have lead him to the top of his profession—to face fear, to be an ambassador for his culture and all Latin culture, dedication to family, to always be learning, and most importantly, a reliance on his faith. ReaDY shows how he transformed his story—and empowers readers to do the same.

Meant to inspire his readers to action and their own transformations, ReaDY showcases Daddy Yankee’s drive, while humanizing one of the biggest music stars in the world.
