Born on October 4, 1962, in Havana, Cuba, he grew up in the suburbs of Miami, Florida. When he was nine-year old his parents had shifted to the United States. Secada discovered his gift for music when he was into his teen. He was exposed to many different sounds like salsa, merengue and tropical rhythms while growing up in the culturally diverse city of Miami.
But Secada developed a passion for R&B and Pop. His music became a fusion of different sounds. With a bit of funk, soul and undertones of Latin percussion, he has accomplished a unique and striking sound. He was inspired and influenced by musical moguls like Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Billy Joel and Marvin Gaye.
After completing graduation from Hialeah High School, Secada admitted to the University of Miami and completed a Bachelor's degree in Music and a Master's degree in Jazz Vocal Performance. While in the university, he became an accomplished jazz musician. Simultaneously, he was developing his skills as a songwriter.
In late 1980s, Secada met Gloria and Emilio Estefan. And soon he was offered to join Gloria's band as a background singer. The group realized his potential and then he became a valuable addition to the band. He also during that time, started composing music. Secada co-wrote and sang background of "Coming Out of the Dark." The song was Gloria's number one hit from her 1991 album "Into the Light".
