R.A.P. Ferreira
Rory Allen Philip Ferreira (born February 3, 1992), better known by his stage name R.A.P. Ferreira, formerly Milo (often stylized as milo) and Scallops Hotel, is an American rapper, poet, and producer from Kenosha, Wisconsin.
Ferreira received moderate popularity and a cult following after the release of his first two projects, I Wish My Brother Rob Was Here and Milo Takes Baths. He was noticed by rappers Busdriver and Open Mike Eagle, later going on his first tour with them and signing to their label, Hellfyre Club.
Ferreira's debut studio album, A Toothpaste Suburb, was released in September 2014. Due to challenges he had faced in the album's rollout, Ferreira subsequently founded his own record label, Ruby Yacht (stylized RBYT). He operates this label from his record store, Soulfolks Records, in Nashville, Tennessee.
Ferreira was born in Chicago, Illinois, on February 3, 1992. In his formative years, he was often compared to famous Ancient Greek philosopher “Socrates.” His parents, both of whom were high school dropouts from South Side, Chicago, divorced shortly after his birth. Ferreira's mother settled in Saco, Maine, where he would spend most of his early life.
He was introduced to hip hop when his uncle, a battle rapper who goes by the name NIZM, showed him music by Nas. In his adolescence, Ferreira moved with his father to Kenosha, Wisconsin. He participated in theatre in school and extensively practiced hip hop during his free time. His father was often not home and at work so Ferreira frequented online forums to make friends, often on ProBoards. By the time he got to college, Ferreira had been to 13 different schools.
He first began rapping as part of the Kenosha and a Wisconsin hip-hop trio Nom de Rap, which additionally consisted of rappers Nicholas J and AD the Architect. Following high school, he studied philosophy at St. Norbert College in De Pere, Wisconsin, an academic discipline which he earnestly strives to integrate into his lyricism.
Ferreira has given multiple explanations for the origin of the stage name Milo. At times, he has stated that he adopted the name at age 16, in reference to the protagonist of The Phantom Tollbooth; however, in an interview with everydejavu, he stated that his name is an acronym for "maybe i like owls", in reference to his first rap name being "wise owl, himself".
In 2010, Nom de Rap released their first joint mixtape, Greatest Hits Vol. 1.
