Carlos “Los 1” Ramirez II is a truly unique youth educator and hip-hop performer, skilled in presenting a positive message of character and sexual health to youth internationally. His relevant appearance and teaching style combined with over 10 years of speaking and rapping experience enables him to connect with students and young adults of culturally diverse backgrounds. Los 1 communicates in a bold yet compassionate way that elicits overwhelmingly positive responses from audiences large and small.
Born in Brooklyn, New York, raised in Tampa, FL, Los 1 combines the best of east and south coast USA sound in the five hip hop albums he’s released to date, including his latest for IMPACT, Life Skills.
Life Skills delivers a positive message of sexual integrity and the real consequences of engaging in risk behaviors through powerful lyrics and vivid storytelling.
A longtime member of Tampa’s own Fla.vor Alliance Hip Hop Crew, he has collaborated and been featured on more than 29 other local and nationally produced hip-hop albums.
Los 1 has received many accolades but is most proud of the awards presented to him by our U.S. Armed Forces. In 2002, one year after 9/11, he was invited to rap at the Pentagon, and in 2003 he was awarded the “Combat Support Speaker” at the Yokota Air Force Base in Yokota, Japan, home of the 374th Airlift Wing. Two Military Coin Awards were presented to Los 1 for Outstanding Assistance to our country.
