David Sánchez Badillo, better known as Tempo, is a Puerto Rican rapper born in 1977 in Ponce. His versatile style, ranging from rap and reggaeton to hardcore and trap, has made him an iconic figure in urban music.
Tempo burst onto the music scene in the late 90s, standing out for his raw and direct lyrics that reflected the reality of the streets. His albums, such as "Game Over" (1999), positioned him as one of the most popular artists in the genre.
However, in 2002, his career was interrupted by an unjust drug trafficking conviction. Despite his innocence, Tempo spent several years in prison, causing a great stir among his fans and the music industry.
Thanks to the "Free Tempo" campaign, led by key figures in reggaeton, Tempo regained his freedom in 2013. His return to music was triumphant, with songs like "No se dan cuenta" featuring Alex Fatt and "Vuelve el León" with Ñengo Flow, which showed that his talent remained intact.
Tempo is considered one of the pioneers of reggaeton and one of the most authentic voices in urban music. His music has influenced generations of artists, and his story is a testament to perseverance and the fight against injustice.
