While he lived, he was known as a fashionista. And even in death, Riky Rick’s contributions to the fashion universe and his influence are still dominant. This reality became apparent during the recent GQ Awards. The late “Boss Zonke” rapper was selected as the GQ’s Best Dressed Fashion Icon Award winner. The award was given in collaboration with several prominent brands, including Scottish Leader, Lexus South Africa, Markham and Crocs.
Rikhado Muziwendlovu Makhado, long famous by his adopted stage name Riky Rick, was one of South African hip hop’s significant voices until his sudden death by suicide earlier this year. The death reverberated across South Africa because no one saw it coming.
He died intestate, which means he died without a will. And as a result of that, a court battle is currently ongoing regarding his estate. Bianca Naidoo, his partner until his death, has gone to court asking to be appointed the executrix of his estate. However, the case is yet to be determined.
Riky Rick might no longer be around, but he’d accomplished much before his tragic passing. As a result, there are many things to remember him by, invariably keeping his memory alive. Thou should be living at this hour, Riky.
