Rio Da Yung OG is released From and Releases Free Rio “Official Video”
After a three-year stint behind federal prison bars, Rio Da Yung OG is back.
Released last week, the Michigan rapper was met with a whirlwind of activity, from private jet rides to a visit to Wafi Jewelry. But the most important stop? The studio, where he laid down "RIO FREE," his first post-release track, produced by Wayne616 and Blue$trip.
The accompanying video, a raw and honest look at his first day back, is a must-watch. A Movement Resumes: Rio's influence never waned during his incarceration. Projects like Fiend Lives Matter, The F Tape, and Rio Circa 2020 kept his name on the lips of fans, while singles like "Legendary" (now RIAA-Gold) continued to dominate playlists.
His release has ignited a firestorm of excitement, with social media exploding in celebration and TikTok overflowing with fan-made tributes. Rio's music is a potent blend of street tales, dark humor, and unflinching honesty. He paints vivid pictures of his world, cementing Flint and Michigan as a burgeoning rap epicenter alongside labelmates Peezy and RMC Mike. Now, with his freedom restored, Rio is ready to reclaim his throne and lead the movement he helped create. Catch Rio live at Detroit's Masonic Temple Theatre on January 11th.
