Red Café is a Flatbush, Brooklyn rapper of Afro-Guyanese descent. He has been called "Red" all his life, a nickname inherited from his father. He often refers to himself simply as "R" on songs he appears on by saying "It's R." Red Cafe began his career in a group called Da Franchise (or as often referred to Franchise) with Bed-Stuy artist Gravy and Flatbush rapper Q Da Kid appeared on many Whoo Kid and Kay Slay mixtapes under Franchise. Due to disagreements between the three, they split up and went separate ways. In early 2006, Red Cafe was to release his first major-label debut I Got a Story to Tell, on Capitol Records in conjunction with Mack 10's Hoo Bangin' imprint, set to include singles "Bling Blao" featuring Fabolous and "Diddy Bop". Also believed to be on that album were his songs that received radio play "Jeep Shit", which features Fabolous & Paul Wall and the remix of "Diddy Bop" which features Fabolous, Kardinal Offishall, Coco Chanel and Curren$y. However this never eventuated. Red Cafe has also contributed to the Coach Carter soundtrack. He has also ghostwritten for many popular rappers over the years. As an underground rapper, his work is not internationally recognized, though he has been rapping on the circuit since the late 1990s.Red Cafe also made a cameo appearance in the biopic "NOTORIOUS" playing primo in which he battled biggie at the age of 17.This battle was based on a real battle biggie and a fellow Brooklyn rapper had and includes the same bar for bar lines biggie used in the movie.
Red Café signed with several major labels over the years, including Arista in 2003,Capitol Records, and RCA, but circumstances dictated that albums were not released. Red commented "I just kept running into jams where the people who believed in me they lost their positions, or just the tables turned while I was at the company and you know things change and I wasn’t able to get the support that I needed".
Red Cafe released a mixtape with DJ Envy, The Co-Op, on October 9, 2007 with distribution by Koch Records. Remy Ma was featured on the album, while Cafe's new song "Paper Touchin Remix" features Fat Joe.
Red Café signed to Akon's Universal Records-distributed Konvict Muzik label in 2007, with his major-label debut album, The Shakedown, announced as due in 2008. In 2009, Red Café signed to Bad Boy Records, with The Shakedown still unreleased.

The 3rd features Papoose, Kardinal Offishall, Juggernot, Uncle Murda, Ross Fortune & Diddy. The 2nd remix preimered on May 5 2009 at Power 105.1.

We Made It
Red Cafe Lyrics
Million dollar deals I'm involved in
Girls come and go them doors is revolving
Baby, you fine like the wine in my cellar
Now I got her wet, can't find a umbrella
Ow, so fly, elevated
Everything Louis Vuitton, Taylor made it
In about a year you look hella good on me
It's our anniversary, Tony Toni Tone
What else?
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
We just got inside and now
That shit is jumpin like
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
Feet all on the couch and
Now I'm sippin' something
We on, We on, We on, We on
If you got some pretty friends
We gon bring em all
You know, you know, you know, you know
This is how we get it on
Bet I can read your mind i hope you redesign
All of that bullshit
That he put in your mind
This is a lot of work, meet me in the middle
Make it worth it baby
You know I'm so official
Don't be dealin' with them scrubs tonight
(tonight, tonight)
Get with a boss, you need a thug in your life
(yo life, yo life)
Real winners gon' throw the cash on yo ass
I would like to put my autograph on yo ass
Go deep till you feel it
Every night I'mma kill it
And cut it, no scissors
Get familiar with the realest (ah)
Them planes be charted
I'm all over the web and
I ain't Peter Parker
Motion pictures, something to move ya body on
The soundtrack be provided by Omarion
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
We just got inside and now
That shit is jumpin like
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
Feet all on the couch and
Now I'm sippin' something
We on, We on, We on, We on
If you got some pretty friends
We gon bring em all
You know, you know, you know, you know
This is how we get it on
(What else) look, mama a fashion executive
If she ain't Miss America
Then she her relative she kill em everyday
Hatin' hoes, sheddin' tears
And that new Rari automatically switch gears
YSL endorse her let her tell it
Platinum in the very first week
Let her sell it what her zodiac?
Lil mama a cover girl
You wit the money team
We live in another world
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
We just got inside and now
That shit is jumpin like
Ayye ayye, Ayye ayye
Feet all on the couch and
Now I'm sippin' something
We on, We on, We on, We on
If you got some pretty friends
We gon bring em all
You know, you know, you know, you know
