The Gift The World Fell In Love With
Building Towers & Moving Mountains
The best teacher in life is experience he who learns from the things that happened to him in the world we live in today and being accepting of the things we can not change. Only then he who is willing shall learn from hearing and observing things that happen to other people. That helps to uncover the truths behind a wolf in sheep’s clothing only to distract the lessons and teachings behind possibilities and how to survive.
With only seeing a reflection of who he'd like to become rather than to mirror the image of who's going through it to reveal his inner strengths. Alone we can move bricks, but together we can build towers, and move mountains. While creating his path Ybezzy has learned how to leave a trail that only the strong could reconstruct using the love language of music to tell his story. One that has never been exposed to transition into the man, the son, the brother, and the artist he is today.
His purpose is more prominent than his pain,in every journey there is always a side of suffering while trying to master a craft. However he took the time while learning and understanding that as a creative its easy to miss when we focus solely on our pain rather than on the bigger picture. Using his music as an outlet turning his pain upside down finally figuring out that the only way to execute his goal was to understand his ability to leverage the things that he couldn't control for a greater purpose.

The Four Pillars Of The Hustle
Examining himself and aiming higher capitalizing off of his losses only made him stronger as an individual. Studying himself always and having it down pack to a science and using basketball and music to help free him from any anger or judgement that he'd either had to face or may have been holding onto lit a fire under him. He is not just an artist, but he is Ryan Nelson, a man of wisdom musically following the four pillars that identify his hustle, which is simple pray, plan, prepare, and pursue.
Growing up in Miami Florida a cultural, economic and financial center which has always been looked upon as the land of opportunity but for Ryan, it was like living on an empty island without rules and regulations that needed to be followed but the freedom to live the way he saw fit. As a kid growing up wild and untamed made him feel like he was living the dream surrounded by a lot of talent though he was young and ambitious he emerged into his environment knowing that there was so much work to be done in so little time to making any accomplishments. He found himself in a place of exploration moving in and through unfamiliar areas in order to learn and investigate his own identity being that music was not his first love and nowhere near close to what he'd thought about doing.
In high-school is where things took a huge turn where it was yet again clear to him that not acting the way he wanted to be, it would become evident that he'd become the way he acted. Encouragement from his friends was a turning point in the decisions he had yet to make however his friends ensured him that he could take things to another level even though he wasn't sure what would come with those words and how it would play out.
Not knowing that success is both very personal and relative, depending on where he would end up in life based on the choices that were soon to be made. Following his departure from high-school is when the attention from females became a domino effect on his image and how he perceived things which turned into a dark spell becoming a troubled teen picking up flaws that where not in the blueprints for his life,but being hard-headed just felt like the right choice not to listen and only receiving what was right for him not acknowledging what was wrong.

The Arms That Keep The Family Close
Sometimes our choices could make or break us, and for some time he had made a conscious decision not to listen and always to do things his way or the highway which was the mentality that came along with puberty. Some would say that Ryan was a rebel, but everyone has a soft side and his love for his family came first even if it didn't appear that way on the outside looking in. He has always been loving and caring and heavily relied on loyalty, and that's something he'd always stand for no matter who and what people thought of him.
But none thought enough then to ask Ryan, " What is in your heart that you truly want to do for Ryan?". " What are your goals and dreams that you want out of life"? Well I'll answer them for you, Just like any other young male he had dreams of being in the "NBA" and living the life of a hoop star picking up a basketball was therapeutic for him but living the fast life seemed more desirable at the time. Chilling and hanging out in the projects thinking about being in the NBA and one day making it out of the hood became more of a temporary goal than permanent because fast-living was all that he knew so he had other dreams.
Rap became his meal ticket embracing a newfound identity that he learned while coming into the industry life loving the freedom of speech every time he'd create was like power to him that only he had control of expressing himself no matter what stumbling blocks he'd faced. He felt that he needed to talk about it to somebody and what better way than to leave it all on a track to playback just to tell his story.He intended to tell his story in return hoping to help others share theirs even if they were different and or maybe even worse than his own.Going into Music, it was made clear that without a solid, realistic, and detailed plan, the goal is nothing more than a pipe dream.
And without the commitment to follow through on that plan and put forth the necessary effort, the dream is nothing more than a good intention but that wasn't enough. Crossing over from being a boy and becoming a man was not your typical story of when boy meets the world simply because there was more to being a man that was looking or appearing as such. His dominance was definitely a force to be reckoned with living in what he called" The Gutter" was still to him the bottom of the barrel, constantly finding himself as a boy trapped in a grown man's body. There was no guidance to teach him the difference because to him "What's a man without a father"? he stepped up and took on the role of being the head of his house having six sisters and a mother that he felt obligated to ensure that there well being was his priority by any mean necessary.

God Waters A New Leaf
At the age of 15-16 he had so much anger and rage because he had no one to lead by example for him a father that could have given him more insight on how to be a better man. His father making an appearance in his life during these times where like a time capsule that was well overdue making those missed opportunities count his fathers advice during that time was direct and straight to the point " I want to see you make something out of nothing and if it's not music going back to school', or the only option most young black men were given was to join the military and in case it was the navy and having an education to fall back on. Now having said that if he was present there would have been room for discussion and he may have taken another path but the strength he carried stemmed from his fathers absence.
During that time becoming an artist made more sense which made him more wise than he'd been before allowing himself to open up to the world overcoming the awkwardness of being shy and not being people friendly Ryan wasn't a social butterfly to the unknown. Having to grow up having seizures going through these battles and being looked upon as a burden his life took another turn more like a detour. Crying when he didn't get his way being overlooked and misunderstood, while also dealing with bullying from his teachers to whom slammed his head on the desk loosing his childhood memories and only having flashbacks of the little him. At that moment in his life it was all a blur it was almost like he didn't get to experience his adolescence when he would come back to his new norm he started saying to himself " Who am I and Who am i becoming"? Realizing that God has given him a new leaf and that he was the reason he was no longer lost but now healed with a different mindset. That was the turning point toward him learning to become a man understanding that his father built him up and showed him what strength looked like even though he wasn’t there physically to fix the problems that he'd endured but he knew that’s made him want to become a better version of Ryan feeling reborn again.
He didn't know God, but his family was always praying and lifting him up, and soon, his missing puzzle pieces started to connect and make sense. After being bullied 13 years and overlooked people felt they had to test him and applied pressure just to attempt to break him, but he made a vow to himself to never back down and always stand up and protect himself and staying determined in everything that he touched because pressure is what made diamonds.
Young Murk saw potential in Ybezzy so much and really wanted to see him win not just for him but for the hood that he once used as his playground. He taught him how to rap line by line, bar by bar and showed him how to write and put him in his first-ever studio session which was an unforgettable moment. Although nerves where high he made it his business to leave upon completing one of many of his first songs, In his words " I don't know how the hell I made it out with that song finished after messing up in a 3 hour session because every take was a challenge down to the bar nothing came out the way I wanted it to, but when I heard it listening to it sounded so much better and from that moment I learned that I could make the impossible possible".

Crowning The Prince
Every artist has had these turning points its what he chose to do to make sure he’d never to go back ever again. The energy around him gave him creative freedom to naturally go off the top simply because writing requires a lot of thinking from different situations but it made the now Ybezzy more outspoken giving his music truth and with being around an drug environment full of problems made being vocal and open easier being sober-minded and I quote him " I feel like being in the studio surrounded by alcohol, smoke, man you name it I was consciously thinking and setting boundaries to avoid things getting in the way the only drug I was on was life and that was the highlight of it all". With a new mindset, he had recorded seven mixtapes, two projects, and that made him the artist he is today "The Prince Of Rap'.
In 2018-2019 no remorse no regrets were presented to the world which was so personal to the rapper because it became his own story without the luxury of women, money, cars, clothes and all of the ups and downs that can come with the music industry. Even though he wasn't always Ryan and nor was he always Ybezzy when he started he out as "Yella Boy" being in the surrounding area's of Miami Gardens and Liberty City it was his stamp to the community and environment he was in gaining his former name from "Sticks". It started as a joke that solidified more of the rebel side of who he was then and who he had to be. As for “Yella Boy” it was cool knowing that he had to retire that one day and that happened when he became a man.
But it didn't stop there as many artist are know for having many names " Yella Fuckem" was the blur in his life not caring what came out of his mouth ruthless and vulgar down to his music trying to become more of the image than the person while creating a character trait of having his lane that none could merge into with on filter. He was rapping real-time and there was no time to worry about hurting feelings ,he took what he was enduring and capitalized on it in a whole song now people could relate to even if it made them respect him for being bold enough to say and do what most wouldn’t dream of. He was known to be raw and uncut including mentioning all of his actions in his music leaving it on the track not worried about anything or anyone.
Being accepted as an artist and now understood as a person his blueprints changed for good although to himself and many others "Yella Fuckem" was a fun moment but it was time to turn it up a little more now and retire his old identities including "Yella Fuckem" and with open arms embraced Ybezzy. Now artist Ybezzy was more serious more marketable and looking ahead to be on a billboard with all that he has been through. Now more than ever walking into his newfound manhood he is more focused and more aware than he's ever been realizing that the time for fun and games were over and now when you listen Ybezzy story his struggle, is his gift and his music.

~The Motivator From Above... Boobie.~
His growth and maturity have truly transformed so now you can look into his Prince-like emerald eyes and see the humbleness inside of someone who came from a dark place but has now reached the light of a new world filled with love and dedication to his craft. It was like night and day for Ybezzy once he found his true identity he found a new level of respect for women and also opened up to love and being open to receiving it back by an uplifting woman yet still making Music unapologetic-ally this is now his moment.
Although he doesn't feel bad about who he was and i quote " I feel that was my happy moment as a kid because the world has evolved and "Yella Boy" exposed himself truthfully and completely and I realized women are the most powerful beings on this earth and the support from women is a good feeling and to have them on this journey has been amazing and I'm grateful because one thing I can say is that " I can teach you how to walk, but I can teach you how to be a man "Yella Fuckem" Vs. "Ybezzy." '
I lost so many fans that were so supportive when Myspace was alive but once it died Facebook became the world yet still divided and changed but hopefully my music can make a difference". "I've always loved the person I am and always will once I graduated and started to perfecting my calling that's when I knew that I AM RYAN, I'm going to give you who I am with my body marked up with the tattoos that are also a road map to were I came from and to whom I am now, no longer having to hide, no longer having to live for others and that within itself shows that I'm a stand up guy.
Ybezzy is a go-getter and if he can not get it then truthfully it wasn't meant, but it will never stop the movement that he's making and knowing who is he is as a person and artist makes his work look effortless. He now knows that he is more than capable and It' no longer just about Ybezzy but the impact his cousin "Boobie" made in his life and now he has made him a part of his legacy. Boobie meant so much to him growing up he was his protector someone who he could count on no matter what even if meant risking his life because he also stood for family he was definitely more like a big brother he never had always shown him the right versus the wrong for that he will always be apart of Ybezzy's journey so that everyone in world would forever know who "Roderick Neely was.
In 2012 he transitioned, and Ybezzy wanted to stop making music, and he did for at least one full year after being in the game for more than eight years in his words". " I wasn't in the mood to make music lost his first child on the same day he passed on during that time I was so selfish and wasn't ready for the responsibility then I realized this a gift from God "Boobie" being reincarnated but when I came to accept the things that I couldn't change knowing that I was dealt different cards of life where there was darkness yet again I started to see the light with trying to adapt to the world I knew I was going to be different".
With the support from his family especially his mom she wanted to see him win and he knew that "Boobie" wanted to see him win so Now in 2019 he is taking the world by storm she was his ride or die the bonnie to his Clyde and more importantly his #1 fan. So I'm sure you're wondering why The Art Of Noise his response was simple
"This story means a lot to me and taking me back to who Ryan is, who Yella boy was, who Yella Fuckem was and now who Ybezzy has become it honestly takes me back to the beginning. I've been through all this, and I'm still alive, I feel like its the first chapter to my happy ending, and I know all will feel it some may even cry and to know how pain can make you feel a lot of people can make it out just like me is why I'm here to share my story.
As far as The Art Of Noise I feel this outlet is a good look for someone who wants to see me win without the money but to build a bond and to make moves together more like a team and to work because I like the talent which any help without a price tag on it is priceless. So Allow me to introduce to you Ybezzy The Prince Of Rap Welcome to the Family.
