About J'Martin:
His name is synonymous of the new bachata sound, his songs occupy the top ranks on the lists of popularity and he is reviewed as a complete artist. Today, J'Martin is one of the most gifted artists in the Latin industry. In 2011, he was nominated Best New Artist for Premio Lo Nuestro and won People en Español Magazine's award for Best New Tropical Artist. Discipline and hard work have been the main standards throughout his life and career, ever since he started working at the age of nine along with his father, Martin, in a bodega (grocery store) in Brooklyn.
"J'Martin" has been pointed out by specialized critics as one of the main talents behind the new sounds of Bachata while many of his songs climb rapidly the charts. J'Martin's musical roots go back to his early days in Santiago, the town where he spent most of his childhood. His mother, Altagracia, was the catalyst of a musical career while his father passed on his negotiating skills. His passion for music and natural entrepreneurial abilities were a part of him since a very young age. Before he turned 13, he was looking to launch his independent musical career but his father suggested he waited a few years more. By the time he was 15, J'Martin started to develop a musical concept ignited by the fusion of New York City's cosmopolitan inspiration and his Caribbean influence. Para Ti (For You) was released in 2011 featuring 13 tunes and became one of the hottest albums of the year, earning great airplay in local radio stations in USA, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic and key markets across Latin America. The album, which also had countless downloads on the iTunes store, included collaborations from Grizel del Valle in the track "Leyes del Amor" and Melina Leon, on "No Soy Tu Tipo".
