Meet Ray 3, an 11-year-old passionate bedroom rapper who just had his entire studio paid for by the music community. But let’s back up a bit and tell the story of how it came to be…
Days ago, the meme of a young, unnamed aspiring rapper (later revealed to be Ray 3) blew up on Twitter. The viral image showed Ray in his makeshift studio with his iPhone cord cleverly wrapped around his bed rail and device dangling to mock a hanging microphone setup, headphones and all.
Soon enough, the boy had stolen the hearts of artists everywhere. The meme was noticed by many eyes in the music industry, including Kenny Beats who felt so moved to search out the young talent and get him hooked up with proper recording equipment with the help of Sullivan King, Oshi, and more. 
Considering Kenny Beats has worked with Gucci Mane, Ski Mask the Slump God, Vince Staples and many more, Ray 3 already has some major players on his side. We can’t wait to hear what he cooks up in his new bedroom studio!
We’ll let Kenny take it from here…
