RP Boo is one of the pioneers of footwork and juke music. With a career spanning over three decades, he has been actively involved in the DJ scene since the early 90s. Hailing from Chicago, RP Boo's innovative beats and unique style have made him a respected figure in the genre.
As one of the earliest producers of footwork and juke, RP Boo has played a significant role in shaping the sound and culture of these genres. His tracks are known for their fast-paced rhythms, intricate drum patterns, and energetic samples.
With his deep understanding of music production and extensive experience as a DJ, RP Boo continues to push boundaries and create groundbreaking tracks that captivate audiences worldwide. His contributions to footwork and juke have solidified his status as an influential artist within the electronic music community.

RP Boo's essential first album, 2013's ‘Legacy’ caused a storm of acclaim worldwide as people finally started to piece together his true place in Footwork and the powerful legacy of his work as an innovator. In parallel with productions, his always on-point DJ sets have lit up festivals and clubs worldwide and continue to do so to this day, notably leading to him being named one of the ‘100 World’s Best DJs’ in a recent book by DJ Mag. Now on its 10th anniversary ‘Legacy Vol.2’ continues his story. Featuring tracks created between 2002 and 2007, this is a wonderous selection of material, some known, some unknown. The album kicks off with the dark and epic ‘Eraser’ created in September 2007, during a time RP was going to underground Footwork club War Zone on the west side of Chicago. The track was inspired by, and created to fuel, the “taunting words of intimidation” between dancers.” And now it makes for one intense album opener.  Years later RP Boo is still inspired by Foot Work – the art of dancing and working for dancers. He continues to shake up clubs and isn’t afraid to get out from behind the decks and drop some Foot himself. We’ll let the man himself have the final word - “What inspires me to keep going is seeing the people having an awesome time moving on the dance floor, as well as playing music that is a recognizable part of my life. I’m one with it.”
