It seems as if nowadays everything flows in a very predictable pattern. Music is watered down and tired, and everybody in the industry is out for a quick paycheck. Whatever happened to originality? Creativity? Whatever happened to the ART of making music? Is it dead? Of course not, it’s just been mishandled to the point that very few true artists still manage to create memorable music. This artist is no exception. Tim is on a mission to prove that it pays to be different and that making music from the heart is worth way more than a couple dollars. Born in Manati, Puerto Rico, Timothy Jerome Martinez has always had a musical influence growing up. From the traditional Salsa sounds of his native homeland to the foreign sounds of Rock, Hip-Hop and R&B that were introduced to him upon his arrival to Miami at the age of 6. Though he didn’t really grasp the fact that music would eventually play an immense role in his life, he knew that it was something he loved and would hold close to his heart. On the path to fully learn the English language, Tim developed a strong liking for self-expression. Using poetry as a way to deal with stress, drama, love, hate, etc. and to create new worlds where things would go as he saw fit. Since he was always the shy type, no one really knew about his hidden talent. That was until a couple childhood friends discovered his unique writing ability and decided to start a rap quartet; they called themselves R.A.P.S. (Rappers Always Prove Skills) Crew. After only one mixtape release and a handful of songs, the group eventually disbanded, leaving Tim to continue down this new found path on his own. For a while, the momentum shifted back to his poetic roots and Tim began losing his desire for a future in the industry. That was, of course, until a chance meeting with the King of The South himself, T.I., that gave him the much needed motivation to continue writing and recording. Back on his pursuit to be heard by the masses, Tim eventually teamed up with childhood friends Nicholas Daniels (Nic Nak), Sean Burke (Fatboy), Maceo Williams (YTDT) and the rest of the B.2. family to take the world by storm. Now, with a hot new single (Money Right) featuring Nic Nak and an arsenal of classic material, Tim is sure to be a one of a kind artist for the world to embrace.
