Coming out of Hartford, Connecticut with a mic in one hand and a notebook in the other, Roby Bamboo has been cooking up lyrical truth since 2016. His journey into rap began with the track “Where U From,” a raw introduction to his world, and ever since, he’s been dropping unapologetic bars that mirror his reality. Roby doesn’t just rap—he paints pictures with words, blending authentic street soul with hypnotic beats that resonate deep with his listeners.
Inspired by no one but himself, Roby Bamboo thrives on self-motivation and hustle. While most artists point to icons for inspiration, Roby’s edge comes from his belief in his own journey. That confidence has kept him consistent—writing his own lyrics, crafting his own visual concepts, and collaborating with a circle of close artist friends. His authenticity cuts through, reminding fans that success is self-made.
His genre of choice? That gritty, real-deal rap and hip-hop. The kind that lives in bass-heavy anthems and late-night verses scribbled into phones and notebooks. He’s collaborated with several up-and-coming talents but dreams of one day sharing studio space with giants like Travis Scott, J. Cole, and Childish Gambino.
Roby’s latest release, “Raw,” stays true to its name—gritty, unfiltered, and bold. And with his new album Hazel Tunes on the way this May, fans can expect another layer of his storytelling to unfold. The production is handled by New Vintage, a team that clearly understands how to let Roby’s voice shine through powerful, melodic beats.
With dreams of rocking stages in Cali, touring alongside legends like Tyler, the Creator and Reason, and stepping into award shows five years from now, Roby’s ambition isn’t just a vision—it’s a roadmap. His biggest supporters? “Friends and females,” he says with a grin, never forgetting who holds him down.
