February 7, 2025 (Atlanta, GA) —Alexxander, son of Latin Gospel legend Luis Santiago, is officially the newest signee to Lecrae’s GRAMMY-winning Reach Records. Alexxander is the face of a new wave of modern Gospel music in the Latin space, and is carving out his own path with a unique sound that blends reggaeton rhythms, punk rock energy, and a message of hope. With a reggaeton and drum & bass fusion, his newest single, “Tres Deseos” (or “Three Wishes”) is a raw and deeply personal cry for transformation.
“I couldn’t be more excited to welcome Alexxander to the team. His talent, passion, and heart for the Kingdom bring something fresh and dynamic to the culture. Latin music is shaping the sound of the world, and Alexxander is poised to make a massive impact,” shares Lecrae.
Music runs deep in Alexxander’s lineage, inspired by the legacy of his grandfather and his father, Luis Santiago, a respected figure in Latin gospel music. Now, with more than 100 compositions, he continues to forge his own path and makes history as the first Spanish-speaking artist on the Reach Records roster.
“Tres Deseos is a reminder that no matter how much we become distracted by the world around us, there’s always a deeper, more meaningful path to take,” says Alexxander when asked about the impact behind the single.

This early exposure ignited his passion for storytelling and lyrical precision, nurturing a deep love for creating music that inspires and uplifts. Blending the raw energy of punk rock with the infectious rhythms of reggaeton, Alexxander’s sound is a bold fusion of genres, underpinned by a message of hope and faith.
