About Roddy Ricch

Rodrick Wayne Moore Jr., known professionally as Roddy Ricch, is an American rapper. Born and raised in Compton, California, Moore rose to fame in 2018 following the release of his song "Die Young" — which marked his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 as a tribute to deceased rappers XXXTentacion, Lil Snupe, and Speaker Knockerz. Ricch's first two mixtapes: Feed Tha Streets (2017) and Feed Tha Streets II (2018) were both met with critical acclaim. In 2019, Ricch guest appeared alongside Hit-Boy on Nipsey Hussle's single "Racks in the Middle"—which earned him a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance—and Mustard's single "Ballin'"—which peaked at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and also received a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Performance. Ricch signed with Atlantic Records to release his debut studio album, Please Excuse Me for Being Antisocial (2019), which debuted atop the Billboard 200—spending four non-consecutive weeks atop the chart.
