Pablo Chill-E
By Charlotte Stace
Pablo Chill‑E is one of the most influential voices in Chilean trap today, beginning his musical journey at just 15. He caught the attention of Yung Beef’s label, La Vendición, and within three years released a number of singles, mixtapes and videos. This early work earned him a strong fanbase on social media, marking him as a major up-and-coming figure in the trap scene.
While his lyrics generally talk about crime and money, beneath the surface he also confronts political corruption, social inequality and the importance of community. His sound blends raw reggaeton, trap and Latin American street culture, and tells the story of his youth in Santiago’s working-class neighborhoods and his rise to fame.
He’s been outspoken about injustice in Chile and, as a result, gained a loyal following of fans back home interested in his social commentary. He’s a force to be reckoned with and remains one of the most powerful voices shaping the Latin urban scene today.
