BIO:
D-Riddla is a poetic MC from Las Cruces, New Mexico, known for his raw hip hop sound and unapologetic lyricism. His journey began at 13, writing rhymes and chasing meaning through music. But it was a moment at 19 that made everything clear. While visiting his grandparents, a few drinks in, his grandpa pulled out a guitar and began singing improvised corridos—songs he used to perform in bars at 19 to make ends meet. That night, D-Riddla saw the truth: music runs in his blood.
Now 33, after years of grinding in the underground and questioning his direction, he crossed paths with the guru known as Providence P.—who opened the door when D-Riddla was ready to walk away. That moment became a turning point, the start of a new chapter in a journey that had begun decades earlier.
D-Riddla stays rooted in hip hop, evolving as an artist without losing the essence of where it all started. His music is legacy, growth, and grit—all in rhythm.
