Early life edit
At age 16, it looked like Martin had hit the big time when his brother invited him to be part of a three men group that was to work with top producer, Gabi Le Roux. That group was Inadiflo[3] of "Halala" fame. They signed to Sony Music and released their first album.
In 2004, he entered the Coca-Cola Popstars[4] and was selected out of 15,000 entrants for the winning group, Ghetto Lingo.
Ghetto Lingo edit
The group has since released two albums, and had its fair share of the live music scene, in the country.[5]
Martin's acting career edit
Martin has also gone on to appear on e.tv’s "Backstage" SABC 7de Laan, Channel O and presented "Bibo" on SABC2 nd e.tv Pop Star.
