Ricky Rickson (Ricky Makwe Bazilepo), born on July 4, 1986 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, is a polyglot singer/songwriter and keyboardist fluent in French, Swahili, Lingala, and English. At the age of ten, he lost his sight due to an injury during the war. Despite his challenges, his passion for music led him to move to South Africa, where he began his career touring with a band, performing at festivals, and recording. Now based in Winnipeg, Ricky is exploring his creativity with music influenced by reggae and rhumba. He seeks to move his audience while challenging stereotypes about the blind in the music industry.
