STARBOUND BIOGRAPHY

Ricardo ‘Starbound’ Collins was born on July 29, 1992 and is one of the hardest
working young artists in the Midwest. Originally known as ‘YD’ or Young Daddy,
Ricky changed his name to ‘Starbound’ after the passing of his father in January of
2012, in memories of him.

At 20 Starbound has performed with a variety of big names that include Tyga, Trey
Songs, Kid Ink, Waka Flocka and YG. Starbound takes pride in honing his craft with
every opportunity to perform and has been blessed to grace the stage with such
artists. Starbound has also drawn followers that in which has reached over 5700
fans on Facebook and led to over 50,000 views on YouTube.

Originally born in Chicago, Starbound grew up on the rough north side of
Minneapolis, Minnesota. Over the years north Minneapolis has been known as one of
the leading cities for high crime with more fatalities than Chicago during some years.
Through the harsh street life that Starbound was exposed to he has definitely faced
challenges of peer pressure that included potential gang and drug activity. It was
taking a toll on him during his middle school years but at the age of 14 something
inside of him began to want more.

Attending a charter high school called Dunwoody Academy, Ricky looked to explore
the Media Arts program to help with the marketing of himself. At the conclusion of
his 9th grade year Ricky was looking to choose a medium to express himself and tried
poetry as the way to share what he was emotionally experiencing. The decision led
him to writing poetry to instrumentals. That decision was the decision that changed
his life forever!
