I'm a 22 yr old Puerto Rican male in Chicago. I work full time and work full time on my music and I'm currently working on my new album soon to be released. I like having fun and living life to the fullest, here's My bio.

OUTBREAK Daniel Martinez known for being a pretty boy in school got his start writing poetry in 6th grade while trying to impress the ladies and from that moment on he was hooked on rhyming. Being from Caguas, Puerto Rico its not hard to see how he would grow up with a love for Spanish music but it wasn't until about 7th grade that he really got into rap music. Outbreak, being a very strong writer found it easy to release his thoughts onto paper. Everyday he and his friends would write new verses in class and showcase them at lunchtime. In 1998 his eyes were finally opened to the talent that he was given and he decided to go forth with his career. With the stage as his sanctuary he has opened for artists such as Twista, Kool G Rap, Nas, Common and Kanye West. Every performance feels like the first to Outbreak, the claps and cheers from his fans are an inspiration and a constant reminder to him that he has the power to be a voice for the people. His very diverse style and ability to put on a great show get him recognized as one the hardest working artists around. The two biggest musical influences in Outbreaks career have been Big Pun and Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. Every song that is written is done with thoughts of whether or not it would meet the expectations of his influences. He doesnt stick with the typical rap format; he likes to switch it up with each beat to diversify his flow. His first mixtape titled Spread The Word is now out along with a compilation that he did with the Force 17 Crew in 2005 and he is working on his first solo album. Featured on the Jenny Jones Show in Chicago in a talent showcase, doing lots of performances and winning a few rap battles have given him the push that he needs to succeed. Having a look that is very marketable has not steered him off the path to doing what he knows is his calling. Outbreak will continue to network, work hard and stay on the grind until his voice and vision reach all. ~SPREAD THE WORD~
