So after the rush of music producers rapping,
now video directors are trying their hand at mixtapes.
But it’s Rik, so I ain’t mad…

Listen

So Rik is one of those dudes that I wish I could justify putting in the magazine. But a super talented video producer doesn’t quite fit the scope of a mixtape magazine (although my partner Rob hung out with Rik before he really blew when they were both filming Superstar Jay for Issue 2). So best believe when Rik drops a mixtape, we are gonna cover it. And was there any doubt of the man’s impeccable taste?
