My favorite singer

Today I’m going to talk about my favorite singer. His name is Tempo.

The truth name of Tempo is David Sánchez Badillo. Tempo is a singer of rap who was born in Ponce, Puerto Rico, in 1979. At the age of five years he moved to New York and at the age of eleven years began his musical career writing his first songs. He participated in many competitions and won many trophies with his music, which led him to record two albums, one in 1999 under the name “Game Over” and the second in 2000 under the name “New Game”.

The songs of Tempo are very good because they talk about the reality of the poor people, showing the social problems that lead to that we coexist with drug trafficking, violence, weapons, drugs, etc.; and as the government and police controls us and watching us. Tempo social criticizes the system from the view point of the poor, who suffer every day the problems mentioned, and that is why I like both songs.

In 2002, he was arrested and imprisoned for "drug trafficking", assembly of the authorities because their words are dangerous to the social order. Among the evidence presented showed a song called "narcohampón" which I love and leave you to hear it.

Finally, I commented that there is a campaign called "Free Tempo" which board signatures to release or reduce the sentence of Tempo.

Farewell, hope you like the song. Goodbye.
