Rico 2 Smoove

Rico 2 Smoove is a rapper from Sacramento, California who emerged on the hip-hop scene in the late 2010s. Growing up in West Sacramento, Rico had a challenging upbringing, spending time in juvenile detention and serving a five-year sentence in the California Youth Authority as a teenager.
