Real Hasta la Muerte was founded in 2017 by Anuel AA, a year before releasing his debut album Real Hasta la Muerte, this happened while he was in prison.

Anuel's Real Hasta la Muerte (2018) was the label's first album release, leading both the artist and label to tremendous success, debuting at number fifty-one on the Billboard 200.[5]

On April 24, 2019, Anuel signs a contract with The Orchard for them to distribute the music of all the members of Real Hasta la Muerte.

I am super excited to work with The Orchard to share my new music with the world, as an independent artist, this is a great step forward.
