C-Kan is the father of a child. I never study music, but I finished high school. His artistic name was derived from the word can, because his mother warned him that he would have a dog's life if he remained vacant, perhaps that's why one of his many tattoos on his right arm is a pit bull. On his middle finger is inscribed "delinquent", about which he told a reporter: "That's what society thinks I am, just because I look like a cholo, but the police and the politicians are better than us. My biggest crime is smoking and telling the reality that many refuse to see. " Their typical way of dressing is T-shirts and baggy pants. It is common to see a black rosary hang from his neck, and he constantly wears a cap. Many times these garments are from the American brand Joker Brand, which designs hip hop clothing, and is now a sponsor of their videos. Definitely, C-Kan is the live example of how someone with everything against him, is not overcome by obstacles to achieve success.[8]
