As Vyper Ranking would doubtless tell you himself, he is a 21st- century phenomenon, a young boy from the ghetto turned to be the main dancehall and reggae artist (superstar) of his generation. He is one of a kind, original and versatile in his music creation. He is also commonly known as ‘Riddim Killer’ a name given to him by his fans because of his hardcore free styling, when Vyper Ranking jumps on any riddim he kills it with his dope off head flows . He derived his name Vyper from a venomous snake (The Viper) literally meaning that he is dangerous when it comes to his lyrics and vocals. And the name Ranking is inspired from his best role model a Jamaican dancehall artist called Shaba Ranking. His musical genre is basically Dancehall and reggae and he says in Uganda he was inspired by artists like Peter Mile, Cindy Sanyu and Kid Fox.
