Bobby Sanchez For BlackLounge // BlackLounge Latin Heritage Photo Series
Bobby Sanchez is Peruvian American Rap Artist from New Rochelle, NY committed to creating a successful life for himself through music.
Bobby was introduced to music in elementary school, when he first began to play the trumpet. By ninth grade, he had started to learn and play the guitar, and then the bass in 11th grade. Besides his passion in music, Bobby had dreams of being a professional soccer player, until unfortunately tearing his ACL twice. When he realized he could no longer pursue his sport, he told himself he would make it in music.
By the tenth grade, Bobby had made the decision to leave school for a couple of months to pursue music. It was then that started recording himself rapping and seeing all that he was capable of. His supportive parents enabled him to develop a craft that was cultured, diverse and rooted in advocacy. His music making process is a bit unorthodox, and it is what differentiates him from other rappers currently. Inspired by current events and the state of the world, Bobby uses his anger toward social injustices as a means of creating art. He believes this comes from his family influence, and the importance they put on social activism. He went on to study studio production at SUNY Purchase College, and now makes musics that represents his heritage and higher consciousness.
Currently, Bobby’s main focus is to go on tour and collaborate with artists that he admire. While he does not necessarily seek fame, he wants to share his music with a wider audience and continue to create art that inspires people.
We look forward to his upcoming collaborations and to see him shine on tour. To hear more of his music visit:
