With influences ranging from The Fugees to Nirvana, Ricky Rude is quickly making headway as the troubadour of South Jersey, blending his eclectic tastes into a style all his own. Developing his lyricism though lengthy freestyle sessions and local battles, Ricky quickly gained a buzz in his home state, leading him to work alongside notable producers such Cardiak and Cool & Dre. As a songwriter, Ricky doesn’t hold any punches, crafting songs of ambition and perseverance from an honest perspective, often leaving listeners with a transparent view of the rebel MC’s psyche.
Earlier this month Ricky teamed up with Philly trap star AR-AB for the buzz worthy single “Hold Me Down.” Today, Ricky has released a set of visuals to accompany the hard-hitting track. The video features Ricky and AR trading rugged verses alongside luxury cars and beautiful women.
“No Guts, No Glory” is slated to include features from Scarface, AR-AB, Apollo The Great, and Liz Rodriguez, as well as production from Cardiak and Cool & Dre.
“Hold Me Down†is now available for purchase in all digital retailers.
