Christopher Martin (rapper)

Christopher Martin (born July 10, 1962) is an American rapper and actor, who is the latter half of the late 1980s/early 1990s hip-hop/comedy duo Kid 'n Play.

Martin's stage name, Play, is derived from his original MC name, Playboy, which he began using while in a music group, Quicksilver and the Super Lovers,[1] which featured producer Hurby Luv Bug.

When their respective groups dissolved, Martin and Reid decided to perform as a duo.

By shortening their nicknames, it would lead to the start of the group Kid 'n Play which featured the pair rapping and dancing together.

In 2010, Play starred as an undercover DEA agent in the independent film The Return.
