Ryze Hendricks

Buffalo, New York- born, Ryze Hendricks is a Hip Hop Artist, Actor, and Content Creator. Born Walter Hendricks III, he started rapping at the young age of 9 years old, but his career did not officially begin until he stepped on stage for a talent show at Kentucky State University. An active student at the time, Hendricks took a chance on himself and entered the talent show, and although he failed to emerge victorious, Hendricks came back with another important piece of the puzzle: confirmation. His performance planted the seeds of campus-wide buzz and attraction to his music. With a newfound confidence in his art and a growing fan base, Hendricks relocated to the New Jersey/New York City area after graduation to pursue his dream on a more serious note. Since then, what was once seen as confirmation has now become the norm, as he has won numerous talent shows, awards, and has released other mixtapes. His Weird Bars and Lyrics Did Not Match The Beat series, which he started on TikTok during the pandemic, has garnered him fans across the world. He currently has around 11 Million Followers across social media, which led to collaborations with iHeartRadio, Paramount Pictures Jackass Forever and more. In the music business, he has headlined 2 Tours, and has toured with Afroman. He has a single out titled "RYZE" produced by multi-platinum producer The Heatmakerz, and has an EP, produced by Grammy nominated producer BpZy, also known as Baby Paul.
