str8 from the Heart Productions presents Ryan T.
A musical enthusiast str8 from the start. Ryan T. developed his passion for rhythm and performing arts after he and his family fled their native Iran, leaving behind its war and suffering. Ryan's parents split soon after migrating to Australia, and he was left in the care of his wise and supporting father who taught Ryan the importance of personal integrity. Ryan was raised on Persian values in keeping with his heritage. He was taught to speak from the heart, be truthful to himself and others, and to constantly ask questions to understand the world.
After years of performing as a breakdancer, Ryan chose to concentrate on his lyrical talents. Rap battles and freestyling became his main focus and very soon Ryan began to reflect his personal life in his stories.
