Last updated: 5 days ago

Real Boston Richey transfers all of the experience, knowledge, and wisdom from a turbulent life in Tallahassee into a hard-hitting and hypnotic brand of hip-hop all his own. His melodic hooks echo pain without filter, while punchy verses pull back the curtain on an unbelievable journey. Early on, a cousin encouraged him to pick up the microphone, but he took a series of detours to get to music. Following his cousin’s passing due to gun violence, Real Boston Richey landed in prison for a few years. Upon returning home, he decided to give rap a shot. He made his debut in 2021 with “Big YIC,” lighting up his city right away. Buzzing nonstop in 2022, he caught fire with “Bullseye,” “Keep Dissing,” “Everybody,” and “Certified Dripper.” Along the way, he landed on Future’s radar, attracting the Diamond-certified GRAMMY® Award-winning megastar to his corner. Co-signs followed from Kanye West and more due to his indefinable and inimitable style a combo of otherworldly harmonies, off-kilter delivery, and razor sharp “shit talk.” Along the way, he assembled his debut mixtape, Public Housing. Among many highlights, “Keep Dissing 2” [with Lil Durk] posted up over 13 million YouTube views and 6.5 million Spotify streams. Pitchfork hailed “Bullseye 2” [with Future] as one of “12 Songs That Will Make You Grateful for Florida’s Expansive Current Rap Scene,” going on to affirm, “there’s no denying ‘Bullseye 2’.”
