HoodTrophy Bino, born Tadashi Sayres, is a Los Angeles-based rapper whose music tells the story of overcoming hardships and leveling up in life. Raised by a single mother in a large family in Palmdale, California, and later in the tough projects of South Central LA, Bino was heavily influenced by gang life but found a vital outlet in music. His path led him to meet Soulja Boy during a stint in jail, which resulted in Bino signing with Soulja Boy's S.O.D.M.G. label. Despite numerous challenges, Bino has turned his life around and now advocates for youth facing similar struggles, raising awareness about PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
HoodTrophy Bino’s remarkable journey from adversity to success is powerfully captured in the acclaimed documentary The HoodTrophy Bino Story: Breaking The Generational Curse. Directed by "Gebar" Sam Gebremiche, the film has garnered widespread recognition, earning an impressive 107 Best Awards, including 21 First Place awards, 11 Finalist placements, 6 Semi-Finalist honors, 8 Nominations, 3 Honorable Mentions, and 58 other selections to date.

Fans can also look forward to Bino joining Rio Da Yung OG on tour this summer.
Known for his "mud-to-stars" philosophy, HoodTrophy Bino’s music is unapologetically raw and unfiltered, embodying the struggles and triumphs that have shaped his life. His latest full-length project, Chosen Few, showcases this ethos, with the hit single "I Want Her" featuring Kalan.FrFr currently receiving national airplay on major platforms, including Power 106 Los Angeles, Power 105.1 NY, Power 99 FM Philadelphia, SiriusXM The Heat, and more.
