RA Scion was born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky. Ryan Abeo (RA Scion) was born in Louisville, Kentucky in 1974 and briefly attended Northern Kentucky University before moving on to start a family. He has lived all over the globe, calling home to such places as Zambia and Greece before settling with his family in the Pacific Northwest. RA is the youngest of 4 siblings and always stood out in his family as the one who would be seen by the world.
RA was born a revolutionary - constantly pushing the envelope, questioning “truths” around him, and keeping his parents, teachers and even his peers on their toes. Finding the Baha’i Faith a match for his independent beliefs - he converted from his entire family’s Baptist roots, at the age of 15, and became a Baha’i. In school, RA also raised eyebrows. One of the most memorable and impacting moments for RA - being “asked” to leave his hometown school and attend another outside of his town - just before his senior year - why you ask? For performing a rap at the school Homecoming Dance - about the Principal and her militant tactics towards students…
Years later, after meeting his wife Mariangela (who now runs their record label SCIONtific Records), and having their only child, Madison - they spent almost 3 years traveling. First to Crete, Greece - then spending almost 2 years in Zambia, Africa.
With Africa lighting a fire of rhythm in RA’s heart - he and his family returned to his wife’s hometown of Seattle, WA. RA immediately began to write and try to get his foot in the door with the local Hiphop scene.
