Eldorado Red was born in Harlem during time when pimps, '80s era hustlers, and number runners ruled the streets of New York City. He quickly incorporated all their traits into the rhymes he spit while hustling in front of the corner Bodega on 108th St. and 3rd Ave. His latest release, Rick Rock Presents Eastside Rydah Vol. 1 showcases his upbringing, influences and roots.
