Risking it all for his love for Hip Hop, Ryan Trey gave up a basketball career and went to work on his music. Now, the Bryson Tiller-cosigned rapper releases his debut album - August.
First off, August sounds far from a debut. It's not totally polished, but polished enough to fool you. This album breathes confidence. The Saint Louis native has a balance of vulnerability and strength that plays well as the central themes of August are relationships and the daily hurdles of life.
A raw talent with a lot of potential, stream August below via SoundCloud. Also check out Ryan Trey's debut on Apple, TIDAL and Spotify.
