We have come across many artists, many songs. Ricardo P is one amongst those artists who has carved his distinct niche owing to his talent which has secured his place amidst this competitive music sphere which is beaming with new artists every day. This Houston, TX artist has managed to stand out from his contemporaries within no time of his arrival as an artist, and that’s quite impressive.

What makes his music stand out is its lyrics and diverse sounds, it’s fresh and raw. Right from freaky deeky to street anthems, his music covers a wide range which gives him a perfect balance of street and commercial appeal. When asked about what makes his music so popular, he said:
“I try to churn out music that is uncommon and not heard of before as that’s the only way you can draw in the audiences as people don’t want to hear the same repeated tunes that singers have been presenting since long. I feel the uniqueness in my music makes it stand out and be heard.”
Ricardo has been around the music scene for the past 15 years, but took it seriously about 5 years back when he decided to make his mark as a recording artist.
His early day inspiration were the likes of LL Cool J and Ghetto boys, who pushed him to start his career as a rap artist. Since then, Ricardo has been fortunate enough to work with some of the biggest names in the industry like Scarface, Eric Bellinger, and Pimp C, from whom he has learnt a lesson or two about the music space.
