Young Miko’s path to success has never followed a straight line. She began her creative life as a tattoo artist in Puerto Rico before stepping into the spotlight as one of Latin trap’s most exciting new voices. At just 28 years old, she has already amassed hundreds of millions of streams and shared stadium stages with Billie Eilish. That rapid rise, however, has not come without its challenges. As she prepares to release her new album Do Not Disturb, a phrase that also serves as her personal mantra, she reflects on the journey so far and opens up about her climb to this moment.
