H-RYDA was fortunate enough to be around rap legend Tupac Shakur

Clearly H-RYDA is carrying the torch for this THUG LIFE and is currently in the process of completing his 3rd LP titled "HR" which is scheduled to be released later this year. H-Ryda has striven to put the finishing touches on this upcoming project adding OG's 2 Short as well as E-40 on his brand-new upcoming single "THE PLUG" being released in the spring and collaborating with Freeway, Lil James, Outlaws, and producers J Classic, M16 and The World Famous D-Boy. You can even catch him doing a cameo in the independent DVD comedy film "WHAT ARE THE CHANCES" which gives people an opportunity to see a different side of H-Ryda.

As a kid growing up in Los Angeles, H-RYDA was blessed to be around rap legend Tupac Shakur and original Thug Life member Big Syke. On the one year anniversary of Tupac Shakur's passing, his big brother died. It was difficult for him to get over such tough losses and consequently, he made a decision to relocate to Las Vegas, where he proceeded to work on his music and his grind. H-RYDA would at some point hook up with 2pac's group, the Outlawzand guest appeared on the Outlaw's LP, Ride With Us Or Collide Wit Us. H-Ryda would than later on connect with legendary Bay Area label THIZZ NATION as well as release HRN1: The Virus- Half Dead Half Livin' with bangers like "Ohhh! Behave" feat.Yukmouth and many more. Having some critical acclaim among his peers,H-RYDA's hustle and drive lead him to ink a distribution deal the powerhouse Bay Area digital label EMPIRE where he unleashed his sophomore album H-RYDA vs THE PLANET. Having collaborations with the Bay Area mogul E-40 in the hit single "MONEY MACHINE" H-RYDA's momentum had him working with legends like Scarface, Jacka, Kokane, Blu DaVinci, Mr.Fab, and others.
