Celly Ru Facts
- He is from the East part of Sacramento, more precisely Lincoln Village. The hood is very close to Oak Park and he grew up on good terms with a lot of rappers from that area.
- He had no trouble picking his stage name because everyone called him Celly instead of Marcel from a young age.
- Celly Ru recorded his 1st song at the age of 15, influenced by his brother who got him to start writing rap songs.
- His father was his biggest role model, followed by his older brothers.
- A woman once ran him over with a car and broke his leg in 8 places. Doctors told him he would never play football or basketball, his favorite sports, but he recovered.
- He prefers basketball over football.
- Anyone that knows him knows that he’s been “in 1000s of accidents” but never suffered permanent consequences.
- One of his biggest motivations to become successful was never hearing about rappers from Lincoln Village or Rancho Cordova, which is often considered the same location.
- Celly Ru considers his song Pull Up to be his tipping point, which started “the buzz around the city”.
- When he started, he wrote about half of his lyrics at home or on his way to the studio.
- He is sometimes confused with a fellow American rapper, Marcellus “Celly Cel” McCarver, who is also from California.
- He has released well-known studio albums titled Foeva East III on June 22, 2018, Ru Gotti on June 6, 2019, and East Side Politics on March 24, 2020.

- The most expensive thing he lost was the entire studio equipment, a consequence of a car accident. He was driving the equipment to Las Vegas, Nevada while listening to Meek Mill and lost his focus.

- Celly Ru used to use lean (purple drank), a recreational drug, but managed to quit.
