Background


Toby Love was born in The Bronx, New York to Puerto Rican parents, his mother later remarried to a Dominican man, which eventually led to Toby Love's exposure to the genre of music known as Bachata. He started working with Aventura as a back-up singer.[2] His voice was featured in 2 songs, I Believe and Gone in the album We Broke The Rules beginning a solo career with his 2006 LP, Toby Love, released on Sony Records.[2] In 2008, he received four nominations to the Billboard Latin Music Awards for songs included in his debut album.[2] Love won awards for two categories, Tropical Airplay Song of the Year, and Latin Rap / Hip Hop Album of the Year.[2]

Love embarked on his solo career.[3][4] Living in the same neighborhood as the group, he became close friends with the member "Mikey", who later asked Love to join.[3]

Toby Love is recognized as the artist that made the subgenre of crunkchata popular.[1] As the result of having recorded half of his debut album in Miami, Love became a fan of crunk music, and incorporated it into his bachata music.[1]

Love produces the majority of the music used in his albums, along with co-producer Eddie Perez.[1]


Personal life


In addition to living in New York, Toby Love also spends his time between homes in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and New Jersey.[1] Love hopes to begin working as an actor, in addition to his career as a musician.[1]
