From childhood, Richie was tipped to be one of the biggest faces the
music world would ever know. His music talents, he discovered at the age
of 6 and has astounded crowds with his musical dexterity ever since. It
comes as little surprise that at 22, he stands poised to outdoor his
debut album, “All of Me”, a masterpiece that took 5 years of hard work
and dedication.
“All of Me” is like music never before heard
within Ghanaian shores, it blends music of different origin and diverse
cultures in a perfect mix that is refreshing, remarkable and potentially
everlasting in the minds of listeners. Richie is a stickler for
perfection and this is evident in the quality of music he produces.
His music incorporates all aspects of his life.
Richie
was born and raised in Accra, Ghana and is the youngest of three
children. He describes himself as a true African, not afraid of
exploring and utilizing ideas and emotions from every part of the world
he finds himself. In an industry that is considered difficult
especially, in Ghana, Richie’s couldn’t have made it without the support
of his family, especially his mother, who has been a great source of
inspiration.
He is a sound producer, a sound engineer, a
multi-instrumentalist, composer and a singer; ironically, he studied
Science in High School and has absolutely no formal music training, none
whatsoever. Richie has tutored himself into a professional like none
other.
He is a successful entrepreneur with his own record label,
LYNX ENTERTAINMENT and Recording Studio, which he set up whilst
studying Computer Software Engineering at NIIT. The years have been kind
to Richie and to us obviously as his devotion to music slowly ensures
his place amongst the stars and in our hearts.
He has worked with
renowned Ghanaian artists, like Tinny, Okyeame Quame, Asem, Praye, Nana
Fynn, Wutah, Batman Samini, Amandzeba, Irene & Jane, Becca, Bradez,
Lady Prempeh, Echo, and Scientific. Internationally, Nigeria’s
International Award winner 2face Idibia, Nigerian superstar Faze, and
Hip-Hop icon Ja-Rule are additions to his list of associates.
