Chico Billions (Carlos Martinez)

"I make music that touches everyone's heart, I have no musical boundaries."

Born and raised in the inner streets of Chicago, Chico Billions has arrived to share his joy, pain, heartache, curiosity, insecurities and strengths with all who will listen. Chico infuses R&B, Pop, Hip Hop, Rock, Country and Christian music into one diverse melting pot of energy. Chico is currently working on his new EP entitled Life After Hurricane Christina, inspired by old and present interactions with women he encounters. Chico is working with local production from RAG Productions, SkillFinger Productions and Rockhowse to keep a home grown sound around his distinct vocals. The lead single, Tears In A Bottle, is depression, regret and confusion rolled into a ball of alternative rock music. It's the story that most men hide from the world. Second single, Chasing My Dreams, is the result of a woman that doesn't want to share Chico with his destiny of success "Please, let go of my jeans..." With a soulful, melodic, R&B chorus that surrounds his intense Hip Hop verse filled with a plea for understanding, Chico makes listeners root for him along his journey towards stardom.
