Raphy Pina is the son of the remembered Puerto Rican businessman and music producer Rafael Pina, who led the careers of such singers as Milly Quezada, Manny Manuel, Gisselle, Los Hermanos Rosario, José Alberto “El Canario” and Juan Luis Guerra in the late 1990s.
Raphy Pina’s first steps into the music industry were thanks to her father, who allowed her to take over the reggaeton division at his Puerto Rico-based music company.
Rafael Pina died in 2000, so Raphy Pina took over the reins of his father’s important production company and focused on new projects such as the production of record albums and musical shows by the artists he represented.
He was romantically related to personalities in the artistic environment
In the past, Raphy Pina was the friend of the model and television host Taina, who was said to have wedding plans. However, the couple never made it to the altar.
On the other hand, since 2011, Pina had been married to Carolina Aristizábal, an important Colombian TV presenter. The couple announced their divorce due to “irreconcilable differences” in 2019.
Raphy Pina and Natti Natasha had been rumored for a few months about a possible love affair, but the pair made their courtship official with a recent guest appearance in a music video by singer-songwriter Fran Rozzano.

In the month of August 2020, Raphy Pina pleaded not guilty to a Puerto Rico court on charges of “possession of weapons and ammunition”. However, a judge has imposed a million dollar bond on him.
In 2016, Pina was sentenced to two years of probation and a $ 150,000 fine for mortgage fraud. After the incident, the producer reached an agreement with the United States Attorney and was found guilty of one time bank fraud and others were filed.
