History of the Bay: Slimmy B
Listen now
Description
Slimmy B is 1/4 of the multi-platinum group SOB X RBE. Growing up in Vallejo's Crestside neighborhood, the home of Mac Dre, Slimmy was heavily influenced by Bay Area rap. Shortly after making their first songs in high school, SOB X RBE blew up on a national level. Touring the country and collaborating with artists like Kendrick Lamar and Lil Yachty, the group quickly shot to superstardom. This was short-lived as internal disputes led SOB X RBE to split up. This has not stopped Slimmy's hustle and he has dropped several solo projects over the years. Focusing on music over street politics, Slimmy remains level-headed and determined to continue his success in the rap game. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support
