María Victoria Ramírez de Arellano Cardona (born November 8, 1997), known professionally as Young Miko, is a Puerto Rican rapper, singer, songwriter and former footballer. In 2022, she released her debut extended play, Trap Kitty, featuring Latin trap tracks. In April 2024, she released her debut studio album, Att., featuring collaborations with Feid, Jowell & Randy, Villano Antillano, Elena Rose, and Dei V. In November 2025, she released her second studio album, Do Not Disturb, which featured a collaboration with Eladio Carrión.
Besides football, Young Miko played multiple sports as a child, including karate, basketball, tennis, and ping pong. There was no girls' basketball league, so she had to play on a boys team.
In high school, she recalls that she was introverted and did not have many friends, finding it difficult to befriend girls.
Young Miko attended the University of Puerto Rico, Río Piedras campus, majoring in drawing. However, budget cuts forced her department to remove credits off her major, so she transferred to the Interamerican University of Puerto Rico in San Germán to study visual arts.
In 2022, Young Miko released her debut extended play, Trap Kitty, featuring Latin trap tracks. She incorporates her identity and interests into her music including anime, urban music, and The Powerpuff Girls.
It was later announced that her record label, The Wave Music Group, had signed a long-term distribution agreement with Capitol Music Group (CMG) to support her upcoming release.
In 2023, Young Miko's reggaeton song "Classy 101", a collaboration with Colombian artist Feid, reached number 99 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking her first appearance on the chart. Young Miko opened for Karol G on her Mañana Será Bonito Tour on some dates of the U.S. leg. She also joined her onstage to perform "Dispo". She was featured on the album of Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana, with the song "Fina". The song peaked at number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100, marking her second entry on the chart.
Young Miko performed at Coachella in 2024. Accompanied by a band, she delivered some of her most popular titles, including the "Chulo" remix and her Bizarrap session, "". On April 24, Young Miko released her debut album, Att.. The title is shorthand for “ atentamente,” which means “sincerely” in Spanish. It features collaborations with Dei V, Feid, Jowell & Randy, Elena Rose and Villano Antillano. The album peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Top Latin Albums and number 129 on the Billboard 200.
Young Miko has also expressed her interest in acting. Her first acting appearance was in the film Sneaks, where she voiced Tiffany alongside other artists like Mustard, Swae Lee, and Roddy Ricch.
In 2025, Young Miko performed at the Governors Ball Music Festival in Queens, NY, and Lollapalooza in Chicago. The previous night, she performed at a sold-out aftershow featuring guest band Latin Mafia at the Aragon Ballroom. At the festival, she also met the girl group Katseye, with whom she collaborated with for the "Gabriela" remix. In September, she became the first Puerto Rican Council of Fashion Designers of America ambassador.
On November 7, 2025, a day before her 28th birthday, Young Miko released her second studio album, Do Not Disturb. Its 16 tracks demonstrate intense production that reflect the chaos around the artist, and she describes the album as "Scorpio-coded".
In December 2025, Young Miko headlined José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum, often referred to as "El Choli", for the first time. The two night shows were sold out and featured multiple guest performances. Night one guest performances included Bad Gyal, Eladio Carrión, Elena Rose, Tokischa, and Villano Antillano. Night two guest performances included Bad Gyal, Feid, Kany García, Mora, Omar Courtz, Tainy, Tokischa, and Villano Antillano; with Rauw Alejandro being in attendance.
Young Miko appeared at the Super Bowl LX halftime show alongside Pedro Pascal, Karol G, and other Latin American celebrities.
In March 2026, Gap launched a new campaign with Miko as the star. The campaign's name, Sweats Like This, features a slight remix of her hit single "WASSUP". This is the first Spanish language video campaign by Gap and she is the brand's first openly lesbian Latina face.
