The time has come to look back at the career of one of the most important figures of Latinx entertainment history: Ricky Martin! From his beginnings as a young singer in Menudo to taking on soap operas (or as we like to call them, "American novelas"), Ricky has done it all. Lilliana and Joseph are going to journey through la vida loca and the career of the icon that paved the way for it all, including the Latin Explosion.

Lilliana Vázquez and Joseph Carrillo are the hosts of Becoming an Icon with production support by Juan Carlos Arenado, Josie Meléndez, Daniela Sarquis, and Santiago Sierra of Sonoro Media in partnership with iHeart Radio's My Cultura Podcast network.
