RADIO RAHIM

Born in Washington DC and raised in the heart of the south, Radio Rahim grew up in a diverse multi-cultural home.  His mixed ancestry includes Muscogee and Persian origins.  As a true artist Radio Rahim would express his creative thoughts with a paintbrush and canvas. But it wasnt until he was in middle school that he discovered his musical side stepping up to a challenge by his friend Krant to sing the vocals for Stairway to Heaven in a talent show, which sparked his love for performance.

He quickly developed into an eclectic, charismatic and motivated hip-hop artist.  Sharing the stage with Brother Ali, OneBeLo, RJD2, Blueprint, Sage Francis, J-Live and many others.  Radio Rahims recipe for sound is found in the soul of the art form, boombap.  His sharp lyrical flow comfortably rides over instrumentals allowing enough space for grit as well as for melody and attention to details.

Never hesitant to address real world issues from social inequality to religion and politics Radio Rahim presents a refreshing perspective on issues ignored by mainstream hip hop.
