Rubén Blades Bellido de Luna, known professionally as Rubén Blades (Spanish: [ruˈβem ˈblaðes], but [- ˈbledz] in Panama and within the family), is a Panamanian musician, singer, composer, actor, activist, and politician, performing musically most often in the salsa, and Latin jazz genres.

He has won nine Grammy Awards out of seventeen nominations and five Latin Grammy Awards.
