Personal Life

In 2021, Cortez started dating Mia Khalifa, a Lebanese-American media personality who used to act in pornographic movies. On May 12, 2020, Cortez put out a song called “24 horas.” It was a diss track for rapper Bryant Myers, with whom he had gotten into a heated argument on Twitter.

The song was meant to be offensive, and Cortez challenged Myers to answer in less than 24 hours. After three days, Myers answered with “El Que No Escribe” as the subject. In a direct video from Instagram, he said that he didn’t post it in less than 24 hours because no one tells him what to do.

This would be the first strip that Myers put out since he hadn’t done anything in the past when other artists asked him to. Shortly after that, Cortez released another diss track against him called “Game Over.” Myers did not want to respond to it because he did not think it was good enough.

In an interview sometime later, Cortez said that the two had been rude and that he could make up with them when they were older and had grown up. A year later, he put out a song called “Enterrauw” which was a diss track against another artist named Rauw Alejandro.
