Dante Santiago is an American music executive and singer. He is a founding member of Black Eyed Peas.

In 2012, Santiago joined will.i.am as coach advisor on The Voice UK.

Music career

In 1988, Santiago began his music career when he met up with rapper apl.de.ap and will.i.am. They collaborated with the rap group Atban Klann on Ruthless Records owned by Eazy-E. Due to Eazy-E's death in 1995, they changed their name to Black Eyed Peas and Santiago left the group in the same year. In 2002, he rejoined the group and sang multiple songs including "Let's Get It Started" and "Hey Mama".

Santiago released his debut singles "It's OK" and "Nasty Like Us" both appearing on National Lampoon's Jake's Booty Call Soundtrack. On will.i.am's Must B 21 album, he featured on the song "Sumthin' Special" while also releasing his first solo EP Inside Te's World.

In 2012, Santiago joined will.i.am as Coach Advisor on The Voice UK and also on The Voice Australia (2014). He continued working with will.i.am as Executive Producer on his fourth album willpower. They released the hit singles "This Is Love" featuring Eva Simons, "Scream and Shout" featuring Britney Spears and "#thatPower" featuring Justin Bieber.
