| Bino Rideaux sounds like Southern California after dark. Through thick smoke from every angle, his melodies glow as iridescently as streetlights do, while wavy flows sway similar to palm trees. The Los Angeles singer, rapper, and producer cruises out of South Central with a nocturnal fusion of hip-hop and R&B, putting up numbers with over a quarter-of-a-billion streams and just shy of half a-million followers. Touted as an artist to watch by Billboard, Rolling Stone, UPROXX, and many others, he sharpens this signature style on his 2022 full-length debut album and much more to come on the horizon. Inspired by everyone from Tupac and Dom Kennedy to Nipsey Hussle and Future, he launched his own Out The Blue Records and served up his very first mixtape, Life Is Like A Movie, during 2015. Recording out of a D.I.Y. studio in his grandmother’s house, he paid homage to his fallen friend KP with “100 Days 100 Nights.” Late Los Angeles legend Nipsey Hussle took notice and tapped him for “Clarity” and “The Field” as well as 2017’s joint tape No Pressure. Powered by “Brand New” [with BLXST], Bino’s 2019 project OUTSIDE has impressively moved over 95k album-equivalent units and tallied 175 million global streams to date. He also teamed up with fellow 21st century West Coast force of nature BLXST for the critically acclaimed Sixtape [2019] and its sequel Sixtape 2 [2021]. The latter captured #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers Albums Chart and broke into the Billboard Top 200—a career first for BINO. Minting an alliance between Out The Blue and Def Jam, he only accelerated his rapid rise with “Incredible” [feat. Drakeo The Ruler], “CREEPIN” [with BlueBucksClan feat. Mustard], “No Makeup” [feat. King Combs], “Lemme Find Out” [with Roddy Ricch], and “Stop It.” Meanwhile, he packed houses coast-to-coast when he headlined the On My Soul Tour in 2021. However, everything just set the stage for him to level up once more on his upcoming debut. In the end, Bino Rideaux is in the driver’s seat for the next era of West Coast hip-hop, and it’s undoubtedly his time now.

The 5-week, 18-city “Sorry 4 Tha Wait II Tour,” Bino’s second headlining tour, kicks off September 7th at the House Of Blues in San Diego, and wraps up at Subterranean in Chicago on October 11th. (Please see complete itinerary and ticket sale details below.)
S4TWII (the follow up to Bino’s Sorry 4 Tha Wait mixtape of 2019) includes his current single + video releases “Outta Line” featuring Ty Dolla $Ign, and “Tied To Me,” which dropped yesterday. S4TWII also contains star-studded features by long-time collaborators Drakeo, Roddy Ricch and more.
With his one-two punch of laidback flows and hypnotic melodies that have amassed over a quarter-billion streams and nearly a half-million followers, 29-year old Bino Rideaux has not-so-quietly been shaping the next era of West Coast hip-hop. His seven year journey to the top tier crystalized during 2021, with a non-stop string of single + video releases that started in June with “Got To Know It,” which was featured in the Def Jam podcast, Here Comes the Break.
After first teaming up with fellow 21st century West Coast force of nature BLXST for the critically acclaimed Sixtape in 2019, the pair returned in 2021 with Sixtape 2, which spun off the “Pop Out” single + video in July. It was the prelude to Bino’s 6-week, 18-city “On My Soul” fall tour of North America (with special guests BlueBuck$Clan and Coot Corleone), every date sold-out in advance record time. The “On My Soul” tour kicked off in September with a two-night hometown stand at The Novo in downtown Los Angeles. That same weekend, Bino dropped a new single + video, “No Makeup” featuring King Combs.
Pegged as one of Rolling Stone’s “Breakthrough 25,” Billboard championed Bino in its tally of “6 LA Rappers to Watch in 2021” and went on to describe him as “the brightest star to emerge from that orbit.” Meanwhile, KAZI christened him “one of the West Coast’s most exciting new talents.” With the release of his upcoming debut album, SORRY FOR THA WAIT II, Bino Rideaux has clearly come a long way since his first indie project back in 2015, Life Is Like A Movie, recorded out of a D.I.Y. studio in his grandmother’s house.
