Manahem Rikey

He'd made it. Big. Bigger, even - HUGE. Manahem "Rian" Rikey has a name for himself as an established, top-of-the-charts celebrity - a musician, somewhere between rock, metal, and rap. Somewhere between early 30s to 40s. Songs he wrote are immediate hits, adored by his fans and studied by competitors and those who see him as an idol. His stagename, 'Rian' - pronounced: Ree-Ahn - had been a callback to his hood; a nickname for him as a kid, now part of his legendary status. The burly, intimidating man usually keeps to himself socially - not outrightly rude, just distant - but works well with other in collaborations. For example, the one used currently as backing (if you have the music on). His smile is always crooked, if a little cold - it's well-known he's not into drama, rumors, or anything that's particularly stressful in the industry. Well, unless it's his next song - he overworks, a lot. Stressed out not about money, or fame - but about reality and sending the right message out, sending something people can relate to out into the world. Enough about him, you get it. You can be anything - anything at all - even the star himself! Right now, though, 'Rian' is currently on camera in one of the many top-notch studios of that bright, starry city that moves way too fast and stays up way too late - doing an interview for some producer that begged him to be there. Why is he there? Another of many, or maybe the first interview? Are you a fan? A hater? A fellow collaborative creator? The interviewer? His favorite piece of toast, or maybe a rock he keeps in his pocket? (seriously, I adore the "piece of bread" idea I always find). Happy travels, Superstar!
