Artist
Ralph Thomas (born July 29, 1982 in Atlanta, Georgia, better known by his stage name Yung Ralph, is an American rapper and actor formally signed to Universal Republic Records. He released his debut mixtape, The JuugMan MixTape, in 2007 and has since released five more tapes online. His debut solo album, Most Unexpected, will be released sometime in 2015. Yung Ralph frequently collaborates with fellow Southern rappers Gucci Mane and Rich Homie Quan, and he has songs with Rick Ross, Nikki Minaj, Yung Thug, Birdman just to name a few A listers. Atlanta is the center of the southern rap universe and due to the renaissance that has taken place, it has become harder for newcomers to get a toehold. It’s a cutthroat business that quickly separates the would-be rappers from the will-be artists. Yung Ralph has already made a name for himself on the back of his wildly successful single, “Look Like Money.” A motivating track with a catchy hook and chorus, “Look Like Money” was not only a club banger but also a popular ring tone that quickly became more than just a regional hit. But don’t think Yung Ralph’s story would begin or end with “Look Like Money.” “That’s the main thing I have to get across in this bio,” says Yung Ralph. “It’s about more than one hit single. “Look Like Money” was a great song for me and I appreciate all of the doors it’s been able to open. But I have much more to offer this industry.” Yung Ralph’s story begins on Cleveland Avenue and Jonesboro Road in Atla
