Enfnts Terribles

Who is Riovaz? What keeps you awake at night?

Riovaz is Riovaz, there’s nothing more to be said than that. The only thing keeping me up at night is Riorave.

You started as a young teenager with music. How has your sound evolved throughout the years?

My sound evolves with my ever changing music tastes as I grow up. It just moves in stages that somehow work out every time I try a new sound out.

You’re still only 18. Do you feel that people underestimate you because of your age?

Yeah I’m 18 and nah I don’t think people underestimate me at all, actually if anything they expect A LOT from me.

You mix house, hyperpop and hip-hop. Why are you so attracted by these genres?

House and Hip Hop is what I grew up on, especially Rap music. Rap music played a big part in my early artist development and was essentially the foundation for everything.

Your debut single “Prom Night” became a viral hit. Did that add any pressure or are you excited that people vibed with your music right from the start?

It did add a lot of pressure because I was still a junior in highschool when this was blowing up, so like everyone was calling me a one hit wonder for no reason so I felt like I really needed to prove myself and that’s what I did.

You released your debut EP Disturb The Norm. What do we need to know about the project?

This EP will change everything. Expect the unexpected.

What are the key elements of this project in your opinion?

The key element is change. Change is unavoidable and happens in life and that’s what’s happening with my sound, so you’ll hear the gradual change when you listen to this front to back.
