Биография

Born Rayvon Cystrunk in Riverside, California, Uno Paper Boi understands how demanding and challenging the music industry can get. He understands that he needs to stay focused on his career and to achieve his goals, instead of being mindful of things that will distract him from reaching success. One of his inclinations as an artist is doing collaborations with other big personalities in the industry to add value to his work and elevate his performance in a sea of multiple talents and aspiring rappers. By working alongside other great artists, he gets the opportunity to shine and thrive in the industry. As a young boy, Uno Paper Boi grew up in the east side of his city, where a lot of poor communities exist. Growing up, he has witnessed the negative side of his community, from drive-by shootings to blatant selling of drugs on the streets. At some point in his life, he thought that he just might end up living that kind of destructive life. He is, however, living proof that everyone does not need to conform to the common practices in their community, that they have a choice to live better lives. To make sure that he does not follow a dangerous path, he immersed himself in basketball, and it kept him busy most of the time. By the time he was 14 years old, he had moved to Atlanta, where he first discovered that he has a natural talent for writing lyrics while in the basement of a friend’s house.
