Throughout his early years, Roque won several singing competitions and released his first album Brincar a Brincar in 1995. His main collaborator was producer Tony Lemos, founding member of Eurodance Portuguese band Santamaria. Roque's repertoire was known for employing a variety of musical styles, most notably Pop.[6]
