We had the good fortune of connecting with Ricardo Brown jr and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ricardo, where are your from? We’d love to hear about how your background has played a role in who you are today?
I am from the bahamas. Lived there for the first 22 years of my life. Grew up outside and inside a lot from diving into beaches and lakes with friends to skateboarding downtown in traffic with friends to taking over technical schools with friends to now living in America started in florida with no friends then hating florida to moving to dallas texas and making lots of money there then moving to chicago n got scammed there then Alabama meeting my beautiful wife and now we’re both living in Atlanta together focusing on music and trying to make a better life for us and the people we love. The craziest part of my life was when i was about 13 y/o i went on a fishing trip with my dad and his friends and we caught so much fish that the boat flipped over and we were lost at sea for four days and got picked up by a 500 ft submarine. Ts was crazy but yea i think my life has been through enough. So yea

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.

But now that i went thru what i went thru i can talk about it in my music and i wasnt expecting to even do music i was forced into it and started to love it and still do love it.
