Salomón Villada Hoyos (born August 19, 1992), known by his stage names Feid and Ferxxo, is a singer, songwriter, and music producer from Colombia. He was born in Medellín, Colombia.

Feid's Early Life and Music Journey

Feid was born on August 19, 1992, in Medellín, Colombia. His mother, Berta Lucía Hoyos, is a preschool teacher and psychologist. His father, Jorge Mario Villada, is a university professor who teaches arts. Feid also has a sister named Manuela Villada Hoyos.

When he was a child, Feid learned to play the clarinet. Later, he decided he wanted to sing instead. He took singing lessons and often sang for his friends. He was also part of his college choir. Eventually, he decided to focus on making reggaeton music. He would sing at college parties, birthday parties, and other gatherings. Even though he enjoys hip-hop and R&B music, he chose to become a reggaeton artist because he felt it was more popular with young people.

Feid has worked with well-known artists such as J Balvin and Sebastián Yatra. He also helped write the popular reggaeton song "Ginza" for J Balvin. In 2020, Feid released a song called "Dorado" where he teamed up with Italian musicians Mahmood and Sfera Ebbasta.
