Tempo

I Was Born in Ponce, Puerto Rico in 1969 David Sanchez a.k.a TEMPO was always very music oriented. I attended Escuela Libre de Musica Juan Morell Campos and by age 11 I started composing my own rap lyrics. Much of my childhood was spent in New York and continuously appearing in various talent shows.I Tempo first appeared in DJ Joe’s album “DJ Joe 4”. Due to business problems I separates from DJ Joe’s crew. In 1998 I appeared in “Time to Kill” and became friends with DJ Playero. As a result of this new friendship I joined Playeros team in “Playero 41”, where songs like Ya llego la hora featuring Getto and Bailando quiero Verlas. This whole album in general was a huge hit in Puerto Rico. I also collaborated with Mexicano in Hagan Ruido Las Pistolas on his album “Entre el Bien y el Mal”. By this time I TEMPO with only 19 yrs was causing great commotion in Puerto Rico with my explicit violent lyrics. Due to this controversy Buddha’s production produced my first solo album “Game Over”. Donde Estan las Girlas, Narcohampon and Ven y Baila are just a few of the hits that Game Over contained.In 2000 my second album “New Game” includes collaboration with Gastam and Getto, Maicol y Manuel, and Baby Rasta and Gringo. Due to the high sales of his these first two albums I is given two Gold Discs, and various awards in Puerto Rico. My third production “Tempo Exito” included all his greatest hits from the previous albums.Lyrical battles are in some way the essence of TEMPO, I has battled with practically anyone who stepped up to the plate, among his list are Nicky Jam, Daddy Yankee, Master Joe & OG Black, Rubio y Joel, just to name a few. Because of my affiliation with Buddha’s family I later became entangled in the infamous Pina Records VS Buddha’s Family rivalry.Regardless of my battles, I am currently facing my greatest battle yet; for I am fighting to appeal this 24yr sentence in jail for on a narcotics charge. At age 36 I am an always has and will always been known to be a rebel, and a revolutionary against society’s injustices. As for my career Buddha’s production is due to release “Free TEMPO” in summer 2005. My talent has greatly impacted reggaeton from its beginnings and will hopefully continue to inspire future generations.I edited my profile at Freeweblayouts.net , check out these Myspace Layouts!
