Wilson, North Carolina has been relatively quiet on the underground hip hop scene lately, or have you actually been listening? A secret weapon has just arisen from Wilson, brothers Ron D and Polo B, also known as R&B Astro, have emerged with something to say and a certain way of saying it.
Ron D a 23 year old Wilson native, has been writing since he was 12 years old, began producing his own tracks at the age of 18 and since then he’s been doing nothing but fine tuning those natural skills. With certification in Pro Tools under his belt, and a dozen years of seasoning, the Carolinas need to prepare themselves for what’s coming from Ron D Productions.
During a stint in the military Ron D was able to continue working on his music in a whole new arena. While performing in venues across the globe, Ron D recieved national attention in Tokyo, Yokohama, and more.
Now he’s back in the Carolina’s and heating up the streets with local performances and hard hitting mixtapes.
Polo B, 22 years old and the younger brother of Ron D, always spent time around music, following his brother’s footsteps, jumping in the booth and laying down tracks. While Ron D was away in the military Polo had time to find himself, he began to seriously concentrate on his music and develop his own style and swag.
With a serious go-getter nature, you’ll find Polo B and Ron D hitting club venues, open mics, networking events and anywhere they can get that music heard. It’s time for another part of the Carolinas to shine and R&B are ready.
With their first video “WOW”, an inside glimpse of R&B and the heat they’re bringing and the video by Troy Jones of SpotTV, features a super hot, almost x-rated peek at “Porn Star”, still fresh and new, another is in the works by 2010 SME Video of the year winner Illy Rock.
Watch Ron D and Polo B “WOW”
Expect to hear more from R&B Astro soon with a new mixtape, “To The Moon” and new videos for “Meet Me At The O” and “Show Girl”
