==Streaming Career==
From 2013 to 2014, Martin took a year-long tour around [[Seylos]] accompanied by his oldest brother Louis. There, he developed "a love for [[Seylosian (Culture)|Seylosian culture]] and people," as well as developing a taste for Seylosian film and architecture.

While he remained in relative obscurity in 2017, he grew a modest following by early 2018. In 2019, his channel saw rapid growth due to his many collaborations with other content creators, and by mid-2020 has grown into the most followed and viewed streamer in [[Fravina]]. However, due to Fravi internet laws, his platform is confined to the small Fravi internet market.
==Online Career==
Martin began livestreaming part-time on 15 July 2016. On 5 September 2019, he dedicated himself to streaming full-time as a career.


Following the [[2021 Martin car accident]] and the subsequent deaths of his close family, Martin has been on an indefinite hiatus since August 2021, with no known plans to return.

Martin considers himself a variety streamer. He streams content relating to video games, cooking, architecture, and many other topics. Some examples of his content include taking [[List of Spoken Languages on Eurth|Anglish]] classes, teaching piano to viewers, and reacting to popular films and television shows.
 
In May 2021, Martin took a week-long hiatus from streaming after breaking up with his long-term boyfriend. He took another hiatus that year from August 2021 to December 2021 following his family's deaths in the [[2021 Martin car accident]]. His first stream following this hiatus was on 24 December 2021 - 25 December 2021, and was a 24-hour charity live stream to raise funds for the [[International Red Cross of Eurth|International Red Cross]]. Martin permanently returned to streaming on 7 March 2022.
 
In May 2022, it was leaked that the Fravi government was allegedly in the process of granting Martin an internet visa to stream globally. This visa was granted in January 2023 but remains unused by Martin.
 
===New Blimps for a New Age===
During the Fravi government's 2019 ''[[New Blimps for a New Age]]'' campaign, Martin publicly criticized the initiative on stream, stating, "...we should be less focused on blimps and more focused on improving our exisiting infrastructure." His comments led to a drastic decline in the usage of blimps in the nation, forcing the government to end the campaign in early 2020. An anonymous government employee cited Paul-Henri Martin as one of the reasons for its end.
 
Many fans of Martin viewed him as solely responsible for the program's end. Some fans even drew fanart of Martin setting fire to blimps or throwing bricks at them, which have become running jokes on his streams and among his audience.
 
==Musical Career==
On 19 February 2022, Martin released the avant-garde album "Quand les vers volent" (Anglish: ''When the Worms Fly''). According to fellow streamer Étoilante, Martin told her that the album was a metaphor for overcoming his grief following the [[2021 Martin car crash]]. The album received mostly positive reviews among critics with mixed reviews from listeners. One of Martin's former music professors, Dr. Georges Bothorel, commented to the [[Rose Window (news publication)|''Rose Window'']], "This is among the best work I have ever seen from Paul-Henri...[he has] improved greatly from when I taught him, and I am incredibly impressed and proud."
 
On 9 September 2022, Martin released the jazz single "Ton étreinte froide" (Anglish: ''Your Cold Embrace''). The song was met with generally positive reviews from critics and listeners. However, some critics disparaged the single. Jean-Luc Lafforgue, writing for [[La Scène (news publication)|''La scène'']], described it as "popular trash" and "a massive step back for the promising young artist."
 
On 4 February 2023, Martin released the Anglish-language pop single "Love By Any Other Name". The song's lyrics contain various metaphors for love, and Paul-Henri dedicated the song to "the love of my life from a faraway land." The single was met with widespread acclaim from critics and listeners. Writing for the ''[[Héraut du Pont]]'', Connor Wallace called it, "A typical, cliché-filled love song that defies all expectations and is bound to become the soundtrack for this year's St. Valentine's Day. A catchy refrain and beautiful flowing verses ensure Martin's work of art will be sung at every wedding and on every date for generations to come. Truly, a masterpice."
 
==Other Ventures==
Martin helped in designing the buildings for the 2020 video game ''[[Arson: The Game]]'', developed by Fravi independent video game [[Enterprise (Fravina)|enterprise]] [[Enfer Entertainment]].
 
==Legal Issues==
===Alleged arson===
In February 2019, Marielle Manaudou, an ex-girlfriend of Martin, filed a police report alleging that Martin burned her house down. After a two month-long investigation, [[Ministry for Policing|Fravina police]] dropped the case. In a public statement, detective Jean-Claude Barber said, "Manadou's claims hold no substance," and that she would be investigated for filing a false report and wasting police resources.
 
The decision of the police has been scrutinized by the general public. Newspapers such as [[Voix du Nord]] called it, "nepotism at its finest," while an op-ed by [[Eunice Jordana]] in the [[Rose Window (news publication)|''Rose Window'']] wondered, "Is this decision a just one, or is it simply another case of [[Martin family|Martin]] influence interfering with the rule of law?".
 
===Brick-throwing incident===
Following allegations of arson in 2019, Martin was caught throwing bricks through the windows of the new house of ex-girlfriend Mariella Manaudou. Police apprehended him for 3 days.
