My full name is Ricardo Makhado, and I couldn’t use that name. But I said Riky, then it was Ricky Rick and there’s a saying that if you have a double name you will be successful.”

“My music is eclectic and a bit confused in some sense. I’m like a Kwaito artist, Kwaito is like my main genre. Kwaito is like slowed-down house music, 95bpm but like rapping with a Kwaito flavour. Kwaito is basically rapping in our own language, Zulu or whatever it is and creating a vibe out of that. So that’s my like sort of traditional music and then I got into making Soul Hip-Hop music and Trap music so I try and mix all those things together and make different type of songs for everybody.”
