Angela Martinez (born January 9, 1971) is an American radio personality, rapper, and actress of Puerto Rican, Cuban and Dominican heritage. Nicknamed “The Voice of New York”, her afternoon radio show has consistently been ranked #1 with more young listeners than any other radio program in the country.
Following her first album’s release, Angie began work on a second record, 2002’s Animal House. In order to build anticipation for the record, she appeared on BET’s Rap City and began a nationwide radio tour. She recorded a verse for the remix to her artist Sacario record “Live Big”. It became the number one record in the tri-state area and coincidentally coincided with the release of Martinez’s first single from her second album, “If I Could Go” which also featured Sacario and singer Lil’ Mo. “If I Could Go” became a huge crossover hit on pop radio, climbing into the top 20 on The Billboard Hot 100 Chart. It became the #1 played on urban radio in 2002. The album, Animal House (named after Martinez’s own production company and recording posse), was released on August 21, 2002. It entered the Billboard Hot 200 Albums Chart at #11, and the Billboard Hot Hip-Hop / R&B Charts selling 92,000 units in its first week. The follow-up single, “Take You Home” featuring R&B singer Kelis became a minor hit reaching the top 100 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album was more strongly received by critics and fans. Following the release of the album, she was featured on a remix for labelmate Lil’ Mo’s track “Gangster”, and Nina Sky’s hype single “Time to Go”. Following this she announced she was retiring from the recording industry to concentrate on her other projects.
As an actress, Angie received small roles in independent hip hop films such as Blood is Thicker Than Water and Paper Soldiers. She then appeared in Brown Sugar starring Taye Diggs, Queen Latifah and Sanaa Lathan. In October 2002, Martinez appeared in Paid In Full.
