Félix Danilo Gómez (born August 29, 1980),[2] known by his stage names DJ Flex and Ni**a,[2] is a Panamanian Latin Grammy Award winning reggaeton artist. He adopted the name Ni**a after being told by another Panamanian artist that he "sang like a black guy from Jamaica."[3] Before releasing an album in the United States in 2008, Flex removed references to his nickname in songs, and his CD packages were reprinted with the name "Flex."[3]
