Cruz was born in 1975 in Naguabo, Puerto Rico, the oldest of 7 siblings.  He spent his adolescence in Paterson, New Jersey. He developed a love for salsa music at an early age, and his idols were Hector Lavoe and Frankie Ruíz.

In 1996 Charlie moved to Puerto Rico to be closer to his family and to expand upon his musical roots.
