Riez was born in Atlanta, Georgia. His parents divorced when he was five, and he was raised by his mother on the westside of Atlanta in the Adamsville community, attending elementary school at Collier Heights Elementary, and high school at Riverdale High, where he began honing his skills to become the best emcee. In 2001, RIE$ gained worldwide notoriety when he appeared on Showtime at the Apollo at the age of 14. From there RIE$ began a journey that would lead him through up's and down's, heartbreak's and trials and tribulations of life and the music industry
Ready for bigger and better things, RIE$ eventually linked up with Fli Pelican's CEO Nino and started to work on his next solo project. "It was cool because when it came to music we were pretty much on the same page, bringing a new sound to the city". Within a years time Riez traveled the Southern and Mid western region taking in different ways and aspects of life. "We traveled alot" "Miami, Memphis, Alabama, Detroit etc... it was like a small tour almost". During that time Riez was writing for this next anticipated street album "Pelicano 95".
On October 31st RIE$ released "Pelicano 95" to fans via twitter everywhere. The immediate response from fans led to a few videos being shot and recognition from his peers. Like the saying goes, some people are born to make great music, and some people are determined to make great music. "What can i say?..guess it was fate".
