He was in the Roger Williams Housing Projects, with his grandfather, who took care of him along with his mother, sister, and two brothers.

Adams began his career in music featuring for Lil Baby on his hit singles "Eat Or Starve" and "Stick On Me".

Some of his early music involved flipping classic pop and R&B songs and recontexualizing them into stories of his life, such as "Project Baby", based on Mariah Carey's "Always Be My Baby", and "Valentines", sampling from Tamia's "Can't Get Enough".

In 2018, he released Rogerville, a collaborative mixtape with fellow Mobile rapper NoCap.

He signed with Lil Baby's record label, Glass Window Entertainment (known at the time as 4PF) in a joint venture with Virgin Records in February 2020.

He first gained recognition for his collaborations with the rapper, and released his debut studio album, G.I.H.F. (Goat In Human Form) in November of that year.

It peaked within the top 40 of the Billboard 200, while his second album, Been One (2023) peaked within the top ten and was supported by the single "Thang for You" (featuring NoCap)—his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100 as a lead artist.

In 2020, Rylo Rodriguez was signed to American rapper Lil Baby's record label 4 Pockets Full (4PF) and Virgin Music, and featured on "Forget That" in his album My Turn.
