RICK Z19 was born in Valdosta, GA and as he grew up, there was something about music that really turned him on and spoke close to his soul. Devouring endless content from the legend Michael Jackson’s records, he absolutely knew without an iota of doubt that he belonged in the music scene. Fast forward to the independent artist he is now as he tries to make a name for himself as an eclectic artist who is somehow bridging the gap between the old school and new school with his style that pays homage to the nostalgic sound while also remaining relevant to the futuristic needs of the new generation.
RICK Z19’s a unique style of music and rhythmic flow is a blend of components taken from southern soul and R&B as he makes raw and relatable music which is a reflection of the real life so that many listeners can be able to resonate with it. He wants each and very track he puts out there to tell a narrative and give the listener a deeper understanding of his and others life and experiences.
RICK Z19 is now set to release what I can describe as an addictive banger dubbed, “Hell 2 The Naw” which is a remake for promotional and performance use only. What qualifies as a befitting guest in the southern-soul genre of music, “Hell 2 The Naw” is the kind of tune has the attributes to age like fine wine!
“Hell 2 The Naw” is catchy and really infectious. It is such a vibe and I love how he skillfully and deftly balances the old and new vibes to engineer something that feels as nostalgic as it is modern; it is like it is a dѐjả vu; It’s like you are in the future and you feel like you have listened to this tune from the past and you really can’t quite wrap your finger around it!
The hooks are unforgettable and RICK Z19 sings from his heart. The beats are danceable and the whole vibe is joyous (god knows how many times I have listened to this track!). It is just a blissful listening experience- like a blend of the swagger of Usher, the singing style of Ne-Yo and the vitality of Bruno Mars.
As you digest that mouthful of information, follow RICK Z19 everywhere and be on the lookout as “Hell 2 The Naw” is the start of many projects scheduled for release this year and beyond!
