Antón Álvarez studied in the San Viator school until he finished high school. After that, he studied a degree in Philosophy at the Complutense University of Madrid. It was in 2006 when he began to be known using Crema as a pseudonym. His demos started to circulate among youths that were attracted by underground hip hop. In May 2008 he presented his demo "Agorazein", in a moment in which artirsts such as Nach, Violadores del Verso, El Chojin o SFDK stood out in rap music.

As of January 2013, he decided to be completely isolated from the media living in his house in the neighbourhood of Pueblo Nuevo without Internet or television. He was lost/immsersed in a serious personal crisis to confront a fame which he wasn't very comfortable with. He spent almost two years without releasing any song and thinking that music would never again be an objective.

After the success of the C. Tangana Latino Tour, in 2017, it was officially announced his signing with the record company Sony Music. He released with this company his global hit "Mala Mujer", number one in Spain. This song reached the higher positions of the top hits playlists of Spotify of different European and Latin America countries. It became the summer hit of 2017 and received the double Platinum Record, first certification of C. Tangana career. The success of his album "Ídolo" with songs such as "De Pie" o "No te pegas" placed him as one of the most exponents of urban music in Spain. The next year his mixtape Avida Dollars was released and it was similarly praised by critics. On 21 June 2018, he released his hit "Bien Duro" with the aim of reaching the top positions of global playlists as he did with "Mala Mujer". The single is a real success and is considered to be one of the summer hits of 2019. This song received the Golden Disc in Spain.
