Ryley Michael Alderman was born on May 30th, 1995 in San Luis Obispo, California, the county in which Ryley also spent first 14 yrs of his life. Growing up, Ryley dealt with both physical and emotional abuse which resulted in him dealing with his own fits of rage, anxiety, and depression as a teen and on into his young adult years. Trying for many years to find ways to overcome his ailments with very little progress, Ryley didn't care much for himself or the world around him. In 2012, he was just about to move back to California from Montana for his senior year of high school when God intevened, changing the direction of his life. Ten months later, at the age of 17, Ryley wrote his first rap and found the first real outlet he had ever had.
Ryley creates music, not just as an outlet for himself, but as an outlet for those who feel misunderstood and unheard.
Growing up, and even to this day, Ryley has struggled with not feeling as though his voice is worth being heard.
He believes that music can be used as conduit to heal one's heart and this is why he continues to make and release music, in hopes that his music will help change somebody's life just as music helped to change his.
In 2019, Ryley Michael released his debut single "Forgotten Everything" and since then has released a string of seven other singles including "Keep Groovin'", which reached #3 for votes during the 2019 No Sucka Mc Rap Contest. Before this release, he had been a part of releasing three other mixtapes.
