░ █ ▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀ █
█ That "Tre-Fo Boy" from Winston-Salem, "Lil' Rick" █
█ a. k. a. "Ricky Ruckus" is no stranger to the rap █
█ game. Before the young lyricist was old enough to █
█ drink, he collaborated with several chart-topping █
█ producers, including Majik, MRell, Shodown, "Oddz █
█ N Endz", and Chase Cashe. Lil' Rick, who is fast █
█ gaining the reputation as the "best all-around █
█ unsigned hip-hop artist in the game", has earned █
█ this reputation with an unusual ability to create █
█ songs. Ricky Ruckus is currently (2006) being █
█ considered as the newest artist to join No Limit █
█ or MySpace Records. █
█ █
█ "Lil' Rick" a. k. a. "Ricky Ruckus" was born in █
█ Washington, DC on September 18, 1983. He moved to █
█ Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1996. He earned █
█ the name "Lil' Rick" from his father Big Rick, █
█ and "Ricky Ruckus" because of his furious rapping █
█ method. His masterful mic skills and "in your █
█ face" attitude comes from the many battles that █
█ this young rapper has faced as a challenger. █
█ █
█ Ricky Ruckus became serious about rapping while █
█ attending high school. At the same time, DJs took █
█ notice and started giving him radio coverage -- █
█ DJ's like "DJ Ceasefire" (Shadyville/ 102 Jamz / █
█ http://www.102jamz.com/). With the increased █
█ radio coverage, came challenges from other █
█ rappers, which only helped provoked him to hone █
█ his skills even more. █
█ █
█ With radio coverage, his name skyrocketed and he █
█ became well known in North Carolina and some █
█ parts of Virginia. It allowed him to open shows █
█ for Jay-Z, 3-6 Mafia, Mike Jones, Slim thug, The █
█ Game, Juelz Santana, Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne, █
█ Juvenile, U.T.P, Franchise Boys, Bow WoW and Life █
█ (2002-current). His popularity is represented by █
█ the spirited response that he receives on █
█ MySpace.com. Ricky Ruckus can be found on █
█ MySpace.com at █
█ http://www.myspace.com/RickyRuckus. █
█ █
█ Ricky Ruckus has released several CD's. His █
█ latest work is a non-mixtape that is scheduled █
█ for release in October 2006. The new release is █
█ entitled "Hood Stripes". His previous non-mixtape █
█ release, which can be found on every major music █
█ website, is entitled "The Streets, My Life". █
█ Ricky Ruckus understands how the music business █
█ works. He understands that an artist must always █
█ have new music in circulation. Ricky Ruckus █
█ released several mix tapes, including "Motivation █
█ Mixtape: Gangsta Grillz", "Motivation Mixtape: █
█ Most Hated", "M.O.N.E.Y", and has been featured █
█ on numerous mixtapes. Please refer to the █
█ Discography below for a complete listing of his █
█ work. █

█ Discography in the PDF file for a complete █
█ listing of his work. █
█ █
█ Right now, Ricky Ruckus is concentrating on █
█ getting the right major deal, instead of hastily █
█ signing a deal that might put him on a "shelf". █
█ Also, he is working on new material for video and █
█ audio mixtapes -- all while pursuing his college █
█ degree from Winston-Salem State in North █
█ Carolina. █
█ █
█ Ricky Ruckus is the best all-around, unsigned, █
█ hip-hop artist in the game! Soon, the music █
█ industry -- and the world -- will know about this █
█ powerhouse of an artist, entertainer, and █
█ skillful lyricist. █
