INSTAGRAM/TWITTER @A1RICOHD SNAPCHAT @A1RICO1995 South Florida is filled with culturally diverse artists, but there’s something different about A1 Rico. Today, he stands tall as a 22-year-old MC ready to take on the industry with his unique blend of trap and reggae inspired tunes. Although music was always a major part of his life, it took Rico some time to realize that he was destined to make his own music. Born in Jamaica, Rico migrated to Miramar, Florida at the tender age of 4. Growing up, his young parents filled their home with all kinds of music from pop to R&B and hip-hop, but they were heavily passionate about reggae. He heard nearly every artist from his native, island nation until the first time he heard Lil Wayne. That’s when he began to experiment with rapping. After fooling around in his friend’s studio, the Miramar resident recorded his first song as a teenager in high school. At the time, Rico was a star football player with serious ambitions of going pro, so he wasn’t phased by people laughing at his early bars. Yet he persisted and got better in time. After losing his scholarships due to a violent altercation, Rico graduated high school with new dreams of getting serious about his music career. At one point in time, Rico was his own favorite rapper. All he would listen to was his own recordings until he felt comfortable with his verses. He has a natural tendency of not feeling satisfied with his work until its just right. His soundcloud is stacked with fresh hits like his collaborative effort with Bonz Rollie called “No Sleep” and his island-inspired record “Stay Real,” which he dropped last year. Four years after leaving school, Rico feels like his time is near. After putting in long hours in the studio over the last year, Rico is finally ready to release his debut project Vice City Dreams. “There’s a lot behind that Vice City Dream, said Rico. “I’ve always had the name in mind, but I wasn’t able to do it up until now. I came up with it four years ago when I first started rapping. Vice City Dreams, I’m gonna drop that. I got people waiting for four years now like ‘when you gonna drop it?’” You won’t find A1 Rico rapping off his iPhone anytime soon. The Broward rapper hits the booth with nothing in hand as he rips his verses off the top of his head. With zero intention of writing down his bars, Rico rips each verse off the top of his head with ease. The lead single “Forgive Me” is his official introduction to the industry as an individual who’s learned the error of his past ways and is ready to do better for himself and his family. Producer SkipOnTheBeat helps him illustrate his bars with satisfying synths and an elaborate bass line that will keep his fans head nodding until the very end.
