Lil Romo
Lil Romo hails from Englewood, Chicago, which means triumphing through the struggle. The 19-year-old rapper has overcome some of the hardest challenges life can offer, but music would be his outlet.
With Lil Wayne and Michael Jackson as his early influences, he carries a great appreciation for both lyricism and artistry — while putting on for his hometown and leaving the negativity behind.
Last year, Romo unleashed his breakout single “Let’s Do It,” with the official music video breaking a million streams. Soon after, he joined the EMPIRE family. When it comes to his rhymes, he speaks on real-life experiences from losing loved ones to gun violence to the reality of being a young black man growing up in the southside of Chicago.
Now, he returns with his debut project titled King Without A Crown, with the title speaking for itself. The 13-track project tells his story the only way he knows how, blending melody with his rapid-fire flow and giving fans meaningful lyrics they can relate to.
