The rapper, widely known for his time as a member of Rick Ross’s Triple C’s hip hop group, carved out his own path in the music industry with a strong solo presence. His debut studio album, Living Legend, marked a significant milestone in his career and showcased his individual talent beyond the collective success of Triple C’s. Throughout his journey, he’s worked alongside major names in the industry, including high-profile collaborations with Lil Wayne and Pharrell Williams—proving his versatility and staying power in hip-hop. Before fame took hold, however, his early years were marked by personal struggles; he began abusing drugs as young as sixteen, a challenge that shaped much of his later life and artistry. He officially joined Triple C’s in 2005, a turning point that helped launch him into the spotlight. Born Richard Morales, Jr. in El Paso, Texas, he was raised in Carol City, Florida, where his roots influenced both his sound and storytelling. On a personal note, his first marriage concluded in 2008, leaving behind one son as part of that chapter of his life. The rapper continues to be recognized not just for his musical contributions, but also for his resilience and evolution over the years.
