Elevated Youth
Ric Flo da anti-hero is one third of the hip-hop collective Jungle Brown (Mr Bongo). Produced by UK hip-hop heavyweight Tony Bones The Producer, Ric Flo flexes his lyrical ability and shows us a different side to his BBC Introducing single Do You. Having recently discovered that Superheros are often fostered, adopted or orphans, Ric wants to use this powerful archetype to change the narrative of the underdog within popular culture. Growing up in foster care, the creative arts became a therapeutic medium of introspection and self-expression. His debut project, 'A Boy Called Ric', is a reflective journey about his life in foster care and has resonated strongly with the undervalued community. In this new chapter, Ric wants to continue to inspire his community but also connect to the masses in a new way. From July onwards, Ric plans to drop a new single every month to cement his name in the game and show that his personal experiences have given him the power and resilience to take his music into new territories and make a mark in popular culture.
