Early Life and Interests

From a young age, kingdr (formally known by the names ricky, Infinite Cherries, DR, and now kingdr) always had an interest in music. Growing up in New York, he had been heavily influenced by several artists and people near him. Many family members of his had been very prominent when it came to writing and creating music. This inspired him to start writing and creating music. He wrote his first piece of music in 2015 at the age of 6 with his brother Brian, (formally known as BBCentra). He took the next few years off then picked the mic back up in 2019 at the age of 9.

The Earliest Years of Music

When considered what the early years of music for kingdr was, this range would be between 2015 to 2020. His first album began to be put into thought when he recorded his first song in March of 2019. He would work on it during the winter and spring months going into 2020. These songs consisted of Dissmas, Sense it in the Air, and Hope. The entirety of the album was named Quarantine after the events going on when he recorded many of these so called "songs."

The "Middle Ages" of Music

When put into consideration what the middle ages for kingdr was, this range would be between fall 2020 to fall 2022. His second album, NEW ERA, was a 14 track album written over the span of 2 months from June 2020 to July 2020. He got his inspiration for this album after building up many mixed feelings and emotions during the quarantine months and prior. In the spring of 2021, kingdr would start working on his 3rd album consisting of 12 tracks named, COMEBACK, which consisted of a new style in music for him. Many songs were very upbeat and showed a bright side of him and his character. Coming towards the end of his middle age period was during early 2022 when he would record his 4th album, forgiven not forgotten. This album consisted of a Lofi style in his work and would show his feelings that he had built up for the past few months when faced with problems and thinking about a girl whom he had liked at the time. The 6 song album was a new step up compared to his previous album which showed a brighter side of his personality. In the winter of 2022, the now well known album which would introduce a new side and chapter in his life would emerge when he switched his persona to kingdr and released his 5th album, Who knows what the future holds.

New Personas and Chapters in My Music

When put into thought, many people may think that this chapter would be called the ending chapter but they would be wrong. From the winter of 2022 to present day, Ricky would switch his persona to kingdr which would prove to be a very helpful decision which would make his name more known to others. In winter 2022, he will start working on his album who knows what the future holds. This album was his longest by far at this point and it consisted of 16 songs. It was his highest quality album at the time but when put into perspective nowadays, it was just another low quality piece of art. In February of 2023, he began working on his 6th album, fake friends and dead ends. This album was built up over a rollercoaster of emotions he had experienced after starting to talk to a girl for over 4 months and then when he thought he could trust his friend, he backstabbed him in the back and took her away from him. Over the months from March to June, all of his channel's videos were private in fear that someone would make fun of his music from his school. During these months of inactiveness, he would work on his 7th album, "14", which consisted of 14 tracks and this album showed his emotional side. It consisted of more melancholy melodies and soothing songs such as Dublin. During the month of July, kingdr would take a break on music but then August is when his whole look at music changed. He started to collaborate with one of his very successful business partners today that goes by the name Ruiner. He found his channel when looking for artists to collaborate with. It only took one day of talking before they released their first collaborative piece of art, "when we were kids." This was the first track on kingdr's 8th album, when we were kids released August 12, 2023. This 6 track album consisted of hits such as 4am and you and i. During the end of August to October he would start the work on his 9th and largest album so far, alone in my room. Through August and October, kingdr had many mixed feelings and emotions going into high school. He knew nobody and was already dealing with fake friends at the same time so he thought that he really had barely anyone by his side to pick him up and anyone to talk to contributing to the inspiration of the name of the album, "alone in my room." While working on alone in my room, he would take a risk by creating a collective with his friend Ruiner and his friend Skylights. Once created on October 12, 2023, they immediately started reaching out to other small artists to help them grow together as one big group. They released kingdr's 11th album, Nightmares released on October 31st. Before this though, kingdr finished his 10th album "ruinz" which was his first collaborative album with his good friend Ruiner. Whilst working on ruinz, Nightmares, and alone in my room, he also worked on a 4 track EP "One Last Night" with his friend Ruiner. During the month of November he started his project in the future we will know, a 16 track album and his 12th to date. This project had a new sort of vibe with more nostalgic melodies and more indie style songs. During the same time of working on in the future we will know, he worked on his collaborative SIGHTSCOLLECTIVE album Dark Clouds which is his 13th album consisting of 6 songs. As of January 31, 2024 the day this is being written, kingdr still has another collaborative SIGHTSCOLLECTIVE album, Beautiful Pain, a 10 track album and his 14th to date, to be released. On February 16, his 10 track album and his 15th album, ambient nights is set to release. Who knows what the future holds for up and coming artist kingdr and where his journey in life may take him.

Inspiration for His Music and Why He Makes Music

Many inspirations of kingdr's music came from him dealing with several struggles. Whilst this will not go into detail, most of his songs are based around the feeling of loneliness. He also talks in his music a lot of how deaths he has had to go through has affected him and how he feels at times that he has no help and that he has no one by his side. Another possible inspiration for his music is how he feels that he doesn't fit in. After having to deal with bullies his whole life and having people say racist things towards him, he lets his stress and anger out in his music.
