Ñengo Flow's Music Career
After some years, Edwin became widely known as Ñengo Flow. His first music project was a mixtape he made with his friends. A mixtape is like an album, but often made more casually.

Ñengo Flow also appeared on many reggaeton compilation albums. These are albums that feature songs from different artists. Some of these included Los Anormales (2004) and Sangre Nueva (2005). He was also on DJ Joe – Abusando del Género (2006).
The Real G4 Life Series

Real G4 Life 2 was very popular. It reached number 75 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart. The 2.5 edition did even better, reaching number 61 on the same chart.
In 2012, he also worked with other artists. He was featured on Ivy Queen's album Musa. He also sang uncredited vocals on her song "La Killer."
