Биография

In June 2005, Martin Rivera better known as Noztra made history by being the first Dominican Reggaeton artist in the United States to be signed to a major record label; Universal Records’ Machete Music. This offered him the ideal platform to expand his brand and be able to open up for artists like Daddy Yankee, Nicky Jam, Tego Calderon, Don Omar, Wisin & Yandel, among others. Noztra has proven to be an undeniable crowd pleaser with his powerful, jampacked, energizing sets. After two successful mixtapes; Conteo Regresivo 1 & 2, Noztra released his first full-length 19 track album entitled “Ya’ Ain’t Ready.” The album covered many different sound experimentations including sandungueo, bolero, hip hop and malianteo. He's appeared on a slew of compilation albums including Sangre Nueva, El Draft 2005 and Da Fuxion. After all of Noztra’s accomplishments, he decided to take a hiatus from the music and become a successful businessman as well as a family man. Now Noztra is ready to return to the spotlight in more than the genre he paved the way for. The first release from his new body of work “La Funda” is already on heavy rotation in the Dominican Republic and is making its way to his hometown of New York City. Noztra comes back much wiser and with a new focus. His music now has a sexy and grown undertone to it. Being able to do both street records as well as pop records is a natural thing for a natural artist. Noztra is currently working on his new album “Dinero, Poder y Respeto”.
