Born Ángel Jair Quezada Jasso, Santa Fe Klan's stage name was inspired by his neighborhood in Guanajuato, Mexico. After growing up as a breakdancer and a graffiti artist, Quezada started taking his rap career seriously when he was a teenager. He was only 17 when he dropped his debut album Por Costumbre in 2017. Since then, he's flexed his versatility within multiple genres from hip-hop to regional Mexican and reggaeton on eight albums, including his most recent release BLANCO Y NEGRO.

"Even though I grew up in Mexico, rap was always around me and became my biggest source of inspiration," he says. "Over time, I started experimenting with new genres, blending them with rap and the influences of the artists who inspired me to make music."

Over the years, Santa Fe Klan has collaborated with a diverse range of top-notch artists, including Nicky Jam, Peso Pluma, and Chino Pacas, as well as Rich the Kid and Snoop Dogg. Yet, 2025 has been an even bigger year for the rising star. His recent collaborations with some of Hip-Hop's biggest names have captivated his loyal fans and attracted new listeners from all over the world. Earlier this year, Santa Fe Klan dropped his song with Lefty Gunplay, "Lumbre," and followed up with "Diamonds" featuring Rick Ross. He recently released his latest single, "Locos" featuring Saweetie, and teamed up with the "Icy Girl" rapper for the official music video.

In addition to his accomplishments in the studio, the Mexican spitta recently teamed up with Shoreline Mafia's OhGeesy and Fenix Flexin for his “Unidos Tour” with Tornillo, Peysoh, and Bravo The Bagchaser. The tour hit major cities across Texas, California, Colorado and more.
