Joel Pimentel, born Joel Pimentel De León on February 28, 1999, in Hesperia, California, is a Mexican-American singer best known for his role as a former member of the Latin boy band CNCO. He was raised in a close-knit family with his mother, Patricia Pimentel De León, and three brothers: Luis Ángel, Emmanuel, and Gabriel. Joel frequently features his mother and siblings in his social media posts, underscoring their importance in his personal life.
Joel gained prominence as a contestant and eventual member of CNCO, the boy band formed during the first season of La Banda, a Spanish-language singing competition created by Ricky Martin and Simon Cowell. The show aimed to discover young Latino talent and mold them into the next global music phenomenon. CNCO was formed in 2015 and included Joel alongside Richard Camacho, Erick Brian Colón, Christopher Vélez, and Zabdiel De Jesús.
The group quickly rose to stardom. CNCO’s debut single, "Tan Fácil," topped Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart, establishing them as a rising force in Latin pop. Their subsequent singles, including “Reggaetón Lento,” “Quisiera,” and “Para Enamorarte,” further boosted their popularity. Their debut album, Primera Cita, released on August 26, 2016, received commercial success and critical acclaim. The group also embarked on an extensive world tour, selling out 40 concerts across 15 different countries in 2017.
As a member of CNCO, Joel Pimentel became recognized for his distinctive voice and charismatic stage presence. The group’s genre, often blending Latin pop with reggaeton and urban influences, helped it connect with a diverse international audience. With Joel’s heritage and bilingual ability, he played a key role in expanding the group’s appeal in both Spanish and English-speaking markets.
Outside his music career, Joel has remained relatively private about his personal life. In past interviews and social media posts, he has noted that he is not ready for a romantic relationship, joking that he might not be until he turns fifty. While he once publicly mentioned having a celebrity crush on Kendall Jenner, he has generally avoided discussing his dating life in depth, maintaining a focus on his career.

Since departing from the band, he has continued to create music, signaling a promising new chapter as an independent artist.
