Terrell Davis, better known by the stage name Ralo, is an American rapper. Born in Atlanta, Georgia, he first gained recognition following the release of his 2015 single, "Can't Lie" (featuring Future).[2] He signed with Birdman's Cash Money Records and Young Scooter's Black Migo Gang in 2016, which entered a joint venture with Gucci Mane's short-lived Interscope Records imprint, 1017 Eskimo Records the following year.[3][4][5]
Spin magazine placed the song at number 65 on its "Every Future Song of 2015, Ranked" list.[6] In 2015, Ralo released the mixtapes Famerican Gangster and Diary of the Streets.[7][8]
Personal life
[edit]Ralo is from Atlanta, Georgia.[9][10][11] He practices Islam.[12]
Legal issues
[edit]In 2018, two private jets traced back to Ralo were searched by the police and found to contain 964 pounds of marijuana (worth $1,840,000, according to prosecutors), illegal at the state and federal level in Georgia.[13] This would lead to him being arrested in April 2018 for conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute at least a kilogram of marijuana.[14] Additionally, Ralo's record label, Famerica Records, was alleged of a being a front business for the gang "Famerica" with Ralo claimed as the leader, so Ralo was also charged with money laundering and racketeering.[13][14] Ralo owned an apartment complex, which he referred to as "Lil Pakistan" and it was raided by police following the arrest.[15] When Ralo was first arrested, he was denied bond because the judge believed he was still running a drug empire behind bars.[16] In July 2020, Ralo would successfully appeal this and he posted a $250,000 bond, before it was revoked in December after the judge found out Ralo was using his Apple Watch to arrange drug deals during his time in jail.[17][18] Ralo refused to testify in court,[19] but in March 2022, he was sentenced to 97 months in federal prison and five years of supervised release after pleading guilty to multiple charges.[14][20] His sentenced was reduced to 20 months due to serving 4 years in jail, having good behavior, and 1 year of his sentence being replaced by time in a halfway house.[21][22] He was released in November of 2023.[22]
