Obonyo Sedrick better known as Ricky Sed, was born and raised in Uganda. As a child, Ricky Sed had dreams of being a famous rapper, so he began to hone his lyrical skills at the age of 15. In his Ordinary Level, he joined a group of Christian rappers at school know as the Men of valour that helped to provide a model for how he would begin to do it. "I later decided to give my life to Jesus Christ and accept Him as my personal saviour" Ricky Sed says. 

But upon giving his life to christ at the age of 17,his focus changed from fortune, fame and women to serving and ministering the Gospel. 

 

Ricky Sed recognized that all of his life should be centered on Christ and he decided to do Christian Hip hop.
