The Beat Starts with Drei Ros! Romanian born, Drei moved to Seattle Washington when he was 16 and quickly immersed himself in the urban music culture feeding his love of hip-hop and free-style rhymes. In 2009, Drei teamed up with rap artist Burre Collins and Dyce Dylli and quickly formed his first band, B.O.S.S., “Building Our Success Story”. His infectious Romanian accent added intrigue to his English raps and quickly brought success to several singles that evolved into a collective album which the band supported by touring up and down the Pacific Northwest.
