About Roddy P
Genre
Hip-Hop/Rap
Hailing from South Memphis, Roddy P fires off bullet-riddled lyrics with matter-of-fact calm and hyper-specific detail. Born in 1993, P wrote his first lyrics at age 13 before gradually immersing himself in the street life. He recorded his first songs following a five-and-a-half year prison sentence for manslaughter. After refining his flow for a few years, he began getting serious attention with “5 Percent,” a menacing 2021 track laced with braggadocious flexes and icy death threats. The song quickly went viral, and Roddy P’s career as a rapper began to solidify. He consummated his rise with “I Hear Em,” spiked with the same casual conviction and fearless confidence that defined his first hit. Powered by his distinctive Southern drawl and the type of reality raps that can only come from lived experiences, Roddy’s music provides a snapshot of modern Memphis street rap.
