At First it was AKA now King Kotini has arrived.
RikyRick has scored a cover in the latest
issue of GQ Style Magazine. This achievement
comes just after Riky Rick announced his
partnership with Vaseline South Africa. GQ is
one of SA’s Most Prominent Style Magazines,
and Riky Rick explains his latest win in a
series of triumph.
The ‘Sidlukotini’ rapper shared this
impressive achievement on his Instagram
account with the following lengthy caption…
“Not too long ago me and my group of
friends were considered weirdos because of
our sense of style. We were laughed at by the
commercial crowd for the way we cut our hair
and the way we wore “weird” clothes. People
like @theonlyscoopmakhathini @mrs_mome
@bhubesii_kobayashi @okmalumkoolkat
@u_sanele @stilomagolide @mkayfrash
@thegooddokta @phikomdi1 and many others
took me in and taught me its okay to be
different. They gave me an opportunity to be
a part of redefining COOL. Not from an office
in Bryanston but from a sneaker store in
Melville. Without them in my life I wouldn’t
be the person I am today. Without them I
would’ve been lost.”
“I say that to say this. Any kid out there who
thinks they do not have a voice that
represents them or feels like society is not
ready for the ideas they have, YOU ARE NOT
ALONE. There are a million kids just like you
out there. Find them, Get together and
change the culture for those who will come
after you. This cover is not tick on my resume
but it is a smoke signal for you guys to run
through the gates before they figure out a
way to lock you out again. Dont get caught in
the ego wars. Identify the people who believe
in what you believe and teach them what you
may have learnt on the road to success.”
“Thank you @gqsouthafrica for giving this
Venda kid from KwaMashu a chance to
SHINE and tell his story. I am forever
grateful. #StayShining
