Born in Ridgeway, South Carolina, rapper Lil Ru became the center of a major southern music buzz in 2009. His hit single
"Nasty Song" stormed the streets of southeastern streets , reaching as far up as New York in some areas. Pushing hard
to get the song on radio, he worked hard in the streets distributing records and bringing awareness to his own
dream of becoming a leader amongst New Rappers.
Lil Ru had a life that was rougher than the average person of today. He grew up with his grandmother that passed away
when he was around age 12 and had little contact with his father. Ru's mother was incarcerated while he was a child for
manslaughter charges, which she still serves time for in South Carolina. Having no real family structure, Lil Ru began
chasing his dream of becoming a popular rapper. No home to sleep in, he spent many nights sleeping in recording studios
around Ridgeway, SC.
Signed to Def Jam Recordings, Lil Ru's first album "21 and Up" was fueled by Hip Hop single "Nasty Song." The song was
a huge success but did not convert into album sales that were hoped for. Gearing up for his second release under Def Jam,
his life experiences and new connections are sure to create a very hot record.
