Ricky Martin Lloyd Walters (born 14 January 1965), better known by his stage name Slick Rick, is a Grammy-nominated English-born rapper. He has also been known as Rick the Ruler, MC Ricky D, and Ricky Dee. He began his career in late 1983, in the hip hop genre, where he recorded a series of acclaimed recordings such as "La Di Da Di" and "Children's Story". He is known for the use of narrative in his raps and has been called "hip hop's greatest storyteller."
Slick Rick rose to stardom in an era known to fans as the Golden age of hip hop. His music has been frequently sampled and interpolated by other artists such as TLC, Black Star, The Notorious B.I.G., Snoop Dogg, and Color Me Badd, with many of these songs later becoming hit singles. About.com ranked him #12 on their list of the Top 50 MCs of Our Time, while The Source ranked him #15 on their list of the Top 50 Lyricists of All Time.
Walters was born and raised in the south-west London district of Mitcham, to an English Jamaican family. He was blinded in the right eye by broken glass as an infant. He and his family moved to The Bronx in 1976. As a child, he met Dana Dane, with whom he later formed a hip hop duo known as the Kangol Crew.

Its great to see our music stand the test of time, and still be able to pack venues all over the world. Thats the great thing about music is how it can unite people, and help them forget about their differences. Slick Rick is British rapper who got his start as Mc Rickey D with the iconic Doug E Fresh... Hey young world..Hip Hop Lives....whether you are old school or new school...we are all the hip hop generation..

ven legends aren't safe from Twitter slander these days. On Sunday, Slick Rick, along with a lineup full of rap legends, performed at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, Calif. for Ice T's Art of Rap Festival. While the Ruler was waiting to hit the stage, he took to his Instagram to post a photo of him stuntin' (dique) on these young whippersnappers backstage. In said pic, he's wearing what seems to be a Louis Vuitton bowling shirt designed by Dapper Dan, a purple cloth hanging from his side like a pirate, some custom black shoes with purple fringe flaps, and a bunch of gaudy jewelry that may or may not be fake (can't confirm.)

(2003) CBS Miami Reporter Shomari Stone broke the Slick Rick Incarceration case. A source tipped Stone off. Stone drove to Bradenton, FL and exclusively interviewed the Hip Hop Pioneer. The report ultimately lead to Slick Rick's freedom. New York Governor David Patterson gave Slick Rick a full pardon on May 23, 2008, ending a deportation threat that has hung over the rapper for 11 years. According to The New York Times, Governor Patterson delivered the pardon to prevent the MC from being deported to England, where he was born and lived until the age of 11. In 1991, Slick Rick (Ricky Walters) was convicted of attempted murder and weapons charges after he shot and injured his cousin and an acquaintance. Rick served five years and 12 days in prison before being paroled in 1997, but...
*Hey yo Doug + What
*Put your ballies on
+Yo Rick I was about to but I need the shoehorn
*Why + Because the shoes always hurt my ?(gong)?
*6 minutes, 6 minutes, 6 minutes Doug E. Fresh you're on
Ah ah on, ah ah on, ah ah ah ah ah ah ah on(2x)
Oh my God...
+Here we go (Here we go)
+C'mon (C'mon) (2x)
+Yo where's ?()?
*Well I don't know they're late
Tell 'em the time, oh I forgot the date
+Man you did it again, oh no
(Yo, here we go, c'mon, here we go, c'mon, here we go
think we missed the show)
No, no n-n-n-no we didn't (wang)
No, n-n-n-n-no we didn't (w-w-w-wang)
No we didn't, well don't get us wrong
*Excuse me Doug E., excuse me Doug E.
Excuse me Doug E. Fresh you're on
Ah ah on, on, on, on, on
Oh my God...
+Well it started up on 8th Avenue
And I made up the name the Get Fresh Crew
It was me, my true DJ Jerona, that would be
My right hand man Ricky D.
I used to rap and sing, make sounds and things
For example, here's a telephone ting
(ring, ring) *Hello, is Doug E. Fresh here
(No, he's not in right now)
+But anyway, no more delay
Just check out the new style I display
Now you got to be fresh to rock wit fresh
And I'm D-O-U-G-I-E Fresh
And I'm know for the (sound effects)
Not for the (sound effects)
The human beat box on the entertainer
No other lable that fit me plainer
In a passing generation, I am a remainder
And I'm also known as a beat box trainer
Cashing checks, make sound effects
And after I'm finish rocking, Slick Rick is on next
(You know it) Slick Rick
*Wel, here's a little something that needs to be heard
Doug, i was walking downtown (Word Rick) word
(Sure) All along, no one to be wit
Step on the D-train, 205th
I saw a pretty girl (so)
So I sat beside her
Then she went roar, she was Tony the Tiger
I said, oh darn, there has been a mistake
Honey, my name's Slick Rick, not frosty flake
(oh, golly wolly) She was raising hell
She said, um, my name is maggie but you can call me Michelle
(Rick sings)
Bust a move, we show and prove
Hey, yo, Doug, do that funky jam on a groove
Oh my God...
