Roberto Claudio Romero (aka) Claudio was born and raised in Newark N.J June 2nd 1995. The eager and young artist now takes upon himself the challenge of providing consumers a sound that encompasses the east coast mentality from the perspective of a millennial. The young latino rapper came from a middle class home in Forrest Hill Pl., but like most cities in the United States Claudio was aware of the difference a street made in regards to the quality of life. Surrounded by violence and drug abuse Claudio felt the need to speak up, although at the time Claudio went by the name Ten+ and only performed at local bars as a poet, the poems themselves profoundly connected with the audience and the situation at hand. The pressure from friends and family led Claudio into entering a studio with high school best friend, master producer and engineer Smitty Coño. The duo thus attempted to take on hip hop in the age where lyricism was not a factor, therefore creating a sound that complimented both the lyricism and flow of Claudio while still creating catchy and distinct melodies in order to give the consumer a sense of originality.  As a poet Claudio flourished in story telling and creating a space for all to listen and reflect, but as a rap artist Claudio has now aggressively taken on the role of a bad boy and in doing so his edgy and controversial lyrics has gained the respect of multiple individuals in the thousands and is now aspiring towards stardom. Claudio achieved this renowned love for music at an early age with the majority of his family from his father's side being professional musicians and his father being a songwriter himself, Claudio felt destined to show his talents and leave a mark in the hip hop industry and now with Smitty Coño those aspirations seem closer than ever.
