Puerto Rican reggaetonero Yomo used to wipe floors for a living. Now he's the self-described "cleanup hitter of reggaetón.''

Born José Alberto Torres Abreu in Chicago, Yomo worked as a handyman and janitor in Puerto Rico before landing a touring gig with Master Joe & O.G. Black in 2005. On the strength of his live performances, Yomo was tapped to participate in Hector "El Father's" Sangre Nueva compilation, featuring up-and-comers like Árcangel, De La Ghetto and Ñejo y Dálmata. His standout single, Déjale Caer to' Peso, a throbbing club track with Hector "El Father," led to further guest appearances on Más Flow, Chosen Few and Los Rompe Discotekas.

In 2007, Yomo signed a deal with Hector "El Father's" now-defunct Gold Star Music imprint, once home to Alexis y Fido and Trebol Clan. After inheriting his new boss' beef with Don Omar, Yomo dropped the Afrika Bambaataa-influenced single Tu Te Las Trae. But things between Hector and Yomo soon turned sour. Last year, impatient with production delays, Yomo paid $200,000 to be released from his contract. But the 26-year-old says he won't hold a grudge against his former mentor: "He taught me how to crawl and then how to walk."

Yomo's debut, My Destiny, was released late last year. His latest hit single, Descara, as well as a star-studded remix of Tu Te Las Trae featuring Jowell y Randy, Voltio and Ñejo y Dálmata, are currently streaming on MySpace.

During a surprise press conference in Puerto Rico, Hector "El Father" has announced his retirement from reggaetón.

"El Father" (real name: Hector Delgado), who dominated the charts with ex-partner Tito "El Bambino," says he will now devote his life to serving God: "My way now is to serve Christ in spirit and truth."

Best known for the 2006 hit songs Sola and El Teléfono, "El Father" says he will donate his jewelry to charity and hang up his microphone... after his current concert tour.
