The self-proclaimed "Mayor of Tre Fo" from Winston-Salem, "Lil' Rick" a. k. a. "Ricky Ruckus" is no stranger to the rap game.

"Lil' Rick" a. k. a. "Ricky Ruckus" was born in Washington, DC on September 18, 1983. He moved to Winston-Salem, North Carolina in 1996. He earned the name "Lil' Rick" from his father Big Rick, and "Ricky Ruckus" because of his furious rapping method. His masterful mic skills and "in your face" attitude comes from the many battles that this young rapper has faced as a challenger.
Ricky Ruckus became serious about rapping while attending high school. At the same time, DJs took notice and started giving him radio coverage -- DJ's like "DJ Reflection" (Shadyville / Hevi Rotation). With the increased radio coverage, came challenges from other rappers, which only helped provoked him to hone his skills even more.
With radio coverage, his name skyrocketed and he became well known in North Carolina and some parts of Virginia. It allowed him to open shows for Jay-Z, 3-6 Mafia, Mike Jones, Slim thug, The Game, Juelz Santana, Young Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Juvenile, U.T.P, Franchise Boys, Bow WoW, Life, Lil Boosie, Young Buck & Gucci Mane (2002-current). His popularity is represented by the spirited response that he receives on MySpace.com.
Ricky Ruckus has released several CD's. His latest work is a mixtape that has just dropped. The new release is entitled "I Swear 2 God". His previous non-mixtape release, which can be found on every major music website, is entitled "Hood Stripes". Ricky Ruckus understands how the music business works. He understands that an artist must always have new music in circulation. Ricky Ruckus released several mix tapes, including "Motivation Mixtape", "Most Hated", and has been featured on numerous mixtapes.
Right now, Ricky Ruckus is concentrating on getting the right major deal, instead of hastily signing a deal that might put him on a "shelf". Also, he is working on new material for video and audio mixtapes -- all while pursuing his college degree from Winston-Salem State in North Carolina.
Ricky Ruckus is the best all-around, unsigned, hip-hop artist in the game! Soon, the music industry -- and the world -- will know about this powerhouse of an artist, entertainer, and skillful lyricist.
