From being born in prison and bouncing around different foster homes, to opening for Boo Bomb 6 at the Moda Center in front of 20,000 people, Roulette Delgato is changing the Portland music scene with his body-affirming, Pride-representing, heavy concept- hitting music.
A rapper, singer, and songwriter born and raised in Portland, Oregon, he is best known for crystal clear, rapid speed vocal ability, a slow and witty metaphoric flow, as well as a unique singing voice, all layered
over arena-smacking instrumentals. From Hip-Hop, to R&B, and anything in between, his style and finesse is unmatched. He has been doing music for twenty years and counting and has a multitude of live performances under his belt. Roulette is the recipient of four West Coast Hip-Hop Awards. One for Video of the Year for his out of the box themed video “Android” (2014); Artist of the Year (2016); the “Courage Award” (2018) for facing adversity as an openly gay artist; and most recently “Portland’s Rapper of the Year Award” (2019). Recently, Roulette Delgato won JAMN’ 107.5’s “Take the Stage” contest to earn himself the only local act at 2019’s Boo Bomb 6, where he opened for the likes of IceCube, E-40, ZAPPBand, Ginuwine, and Baby Bash.
“Once that pride flag was placed around my neck and became a cape in front of 20,000 people, I knew I was a superhero and I would change lives. I am using my platform to fight for love, unity, and most importantly, equality.”
Roulette has many record breaking accomplishments including being the first local, LGBTQIA+ person of
color to perform on the Moda Center; the first artist to perform on a float for Beaverton, OR’s pride parade;
and the first LGBTQIA+ person of color to perform at
the Central Oregon Pride Celebration. Roulette has also tapped into the fashion world as a plus sized model, bringing his advocacy for body positivity to the industry. He most recently graced the cover of Bold Magazines fall issue of 2020 and walked the Kween Kloset fashion show during New York Fashion Week. Roulette is an advocate for philanthropy and has participated in three large benefit concerts, raising money for non-profits such as
the Doernbecher Foundation, YWCA Women’s and Children’s Center, and Boxes of Love.
Roulette Delgato’s energy, passion, and intentions continue to inspire people of all backgrounds as he raises the bar on what it means to represent change and equality. His journey is a sight to be behold, and his future has just begun.
