Bryan David Castro Sosa (born 14 January 1994), known professionally as Ryan Castro, is a Colombian rapper, singer and songwriter. He achieved worldwide recognition for his songs "Quema", "Jordan", "Mujeriego", and "Monastery".

Castro was born in Bello and raised in the Pedregal neighborhood, in the north of Medellín, the capital of Antioquia. From an early age, he demonstrated musical abilities, especially in rap, freestyle, and dancehall, genres in which he excelled in high school. After graduating from high school at age 17, he began singing on buses, which helped him contribute to the subsistence at home. This allowed him to gain experience and confidence over the years, and he soon began performing in bars, clubs and music events. Years later, he traveled to Curaçao, where he found inspiration by the sea to create his music.
