The family of the late Rikhado “Riky Rick” Makhado continues his legacy by releasing a new song using AI.
The rapper took his life on February 23, 2022, at age 34; he dropped a cryptic tweet that reads, “I’ll return a stronger man”.
The phrase is a lyric from one of his songs.
Ganja Beatz, Audio Militia, and lyricist Lebo Machudi worked on the new song titled Stronger, created using AI; the lyrics were formed through the late rapper’s words shared on Twitter.
The news song is said to support and promote mental health.
“Our hope is that the Riky Rick Foundation for the Promotion of Artivism will inspire individuals and organisation to care for young people, for mental health and wellbeing as well as participate in bringing about the changes we want in society – in essence – to Stay Shining.” affirmed Louisa Zondo, Riky Rick’s beloved mother.
