TEMPA 
From the city that never sleeps, to the lonely streets of the Bronx, I Tempa  was born on the 2nd of November, 1994.  At the age of five I learned to play the guitar because my grandfather was a musician during his time.  Music had always played a major role in my life, not just because I have a passion for it but because it’s also a part of my culture.  Whether it was Salsa, Merengue, Bachata, Hip-Hop & R&B, or Reggae, something about all different genres had caught my attention.  Everywhere I went there was music playing, it’s like I couldn’t get away from it.  I could’ve gotten away from it all but I didn’t want to because something always told me there’s definitely a reason why I have such passion for it, so at the age of seven, I began to write poetry.  I later turned my poems into songs when I figured out that I was able to sing. Due to my creativity and talents I knew I could do anything in this world, but how?  
From poetry, to song writing (R&B) I turned to hip-hop.  Over the years growing up, going through trials and tribulations and horrible experiences, had inspired me to rhyme.  I began to start rapping in my music and from that point on, that’s all I wanted to do.  My main goal is to give people what they want, tell my story, persuade the youth, prosper, and to conquer.
