Lorna Zarina Aponte (born 1983 in Panama), better known simply as Lorna, is a female rapper and reggaeton artist best known for her song "Papi Chulo (Te Traigo el Mmmm)". This song got wide spread popularity in US and Europe (Reaching No. 1 in French music charts) but also saw enormous success in countries like Turkey and specially in Pakistan. At the age of 13, Aponte decided that she wanted to become a singer and solo artist and so she went to searching for - and found - a music producer and DJ who was willing to record a song with her on vocals. With help from this producer she entered a talent competition for new singers organised in Panama City which she won. This gave Aponte the opportunity to record a single. Soon after she was working with El Chombo, a renowned producer in Panama.[1] In 2005 Aponte was scheduled to appear at a festival in Bilbao called Zorrozaurre, but instead of her the record company sent one of her backing singers claiming that Lorna had decided to take a sabbathical due to health related issues. The backing singer also gave interviews under the impression of being Aponte.[2] Rumours of her death started soon to appear.
