Roscoe is an American rapper hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but who found his fame on the West Coast hip-hop scene. Born David Williams on June 2, 1983, Roscoe emerged in the music industry as the younger brother of the well-known rapper Kurupt, which granted him an insider's view of the rap world from a young age. His lyrics tend to reflect his experiences in the urban landscapes, touching upon themes such as street life, the pursuit of success, and personal relationships, often delivered with a uniquely laid-back yet sharp flow.

Roscoe's career began to gain momentum in the early 2000s. Notable for his youthful voice and dynamic rap style, Roscoe made a solid impact with the release of his debut album "Young Roscoe Philaphornia" in 2003. His subsequent releases display a matured artistry and a rich blend of West Coast sounds with a touch of the East Coast vibe reflective of his Philadelphia roots. Tracks like "Dirty Job" and "I Luv Cali" are emblematic of his love for the Golden State while "Smoke A lil Drink A lil" and "Karate Body" exhibit his ability to create party anthems that resonate with fans of the genre. Though he navigates a fiercely competitive landscape, Roscoe's authenticity and persistent grind have helped him maintain a loyal fanbase within the ever-evolving hip-hop community.
