Rikz is 16 and from South London... He Is NO DUMB BOY he got 3 B's 6 C's 2 D's in his GCSES! And attends college studying Music Technology, Business Studies and English Language. Rikz started spitting back in the days when the faze was to become a "MC", as many of the folowers of the faze died out Rikz stayed on his grind to come where he is now. He started spitting with his closest cousin Blazer in late 2005 - early 2006, but the content was sloppy rhyming about guns and shanks etc. The two then linked up with a few mcs in ..Leicester.. and formed a crew called Serious Soljahs. This was more a gang than a music cult and people one by one dropped out until it was Rikz, Blazer and Bugz. The three renamed the group in to Serious Sounds as it was more a music name instead of the crew life they left behind them.
“Peformancesâ€
Rikz peformed on stages such as Streatham Festival, Croydon World Festival 2008, The mainstage at East London Mela infront of a good 3 thousand people, Headlined Ipswich Mela 2008, The Mash Up Part 2 - The Shed, ..Belgravia.. at The SummerJam part 2 and has peformed twice at the BBC Blast 2007 and Leicester Mela 2007!
He has also featured on radio stations such as Sabras Radio (Midlands) - Live interview, Club Asia- Tunes and Interview..(WINNING THE SMACKDOWN UNSIGNED ARTIST A RECORD 4 TIMES IN A ROW) A Live Interview In The Studio at Asian Fx and BBC ASIAN NETWORK TWICE, INCLUDING THE HYPE ON THE MIC CLASH WHICH NOT MANY MCS CAN BRAG ABOUT! He has also featured on pirate radio such as Grime Online Radio.
“Mixtapesâ€
The Mixtape "The Making Of Blazer and Rikz" was quite a big success Serious sounds recieved good feedback on the cd even though they themselves admit it wasnt the best they could of done as it was quite rushed in a 6 week period, it featured lyrcists such as Cold Fever, Lyrical B and Shay. Therefore watch out for the CD coming this year were he puts 100% effort in to it unlike last time!
Talking about mixtapes Rikz wil be releasing "Unfinished Business Volume 1" Later this year with collabs with the likes of Esco, Faytal A, Respah, Stratergy, Blitzin Barz, Liskman, Lyrical Bliss, Redrum, Serious sounds + many many more..
“ Socialisng Networksâ€
Rikz Curently only Use Myspace and Facebook (which is only for people he personally knows) Any other internet socialising sites such as bebo, Zorpia? face box? etc are fake accounts of me and he doesn't use them.
“Big Upsâ€
I would like to thank a few people who made this all possible, my mum and dad for supporting me with music, my cousin blazer who started me off, bugz for bein supportive, pratik aka bling for being there, shaun for being there and being a joker lol and all my family!
“THE WHOLE ASIAN SCENEâ€
"I try to label myself a MC more than a Asian MC because this whole Asian scene isn't really the way i want to head with my music, not to mention the amount of shit we have in the asian scene, we also have a lot of talent which hasnt really been exposed, but for now I'd rather myself as a MC, I KNOW IM IN THE TOP 5 ASIAN YOUTHS IN THE U.K RIGHT KNOW BUT YOU WONT HEAR ME BRAG ABOUT IT , and i know guy are gona chat shit like, aw he wants to be black he wants to forget his roots, never that but i just dont want to be focused on only asian people hearing my music. Also i am south ....londons.... best asian under 16 at the moment something defintley to be proud of, but again it has the word Asian in it. But I'm gonna do my own thing and not go down the whole asian route and let these other Asian MC's do what they wana do"
