As a child, he sang in the choir and performedin school plays. When he was six, he began acting in televisioncommercials. Shortly aftereward, he took professional singingand acting lessons, which paved the way for his auditions forMenudo. In 1984, when he was 12 years old, he became amember of Menudo. For the next five years, he was the leadsinger of the group.
In 1991, he released his self-titled debut album,which he co-wrote with his fellow Menudo alumnus Robi Rosa,who would become a regular collaborator over the course ofMartin's career (often credited as Ian Blake). Two years later, he followed it with the Juan Carlos Calderon-produced Me Amaras,which was an even bigger hit.

In 1995, he released his third album, A Medio Vivir, a record thathad a harder rock edge, yet also featured such Latin styles asflamenco and cumbia. In early 1998, he released his fourthalbum, Vuelve. His first English pop album -- which happened toalso be titled Ricky Martin -- was released in the spring of 1999.
