At the forefront of pop in 2012, RIZ aka AmstaDAMN continually reinvents the generic formula of mainstream music by fusing styles within the realm of hip hop, R&B and house music, creating a unique Afro-European brand of surgical precision. His creative melodies, infectious hooks and club thumping beats have brought forth numerous national and international opportunities while stirring up the underground DJ circuit. Born and raised in Nigeria then the Netherlands, RIZ strives to achieve the pinnacle of success in everything he embarks on. Through the years, the industry has seen RIZ grow and flourish as a singer, songwriter, producer, and DJ. Drawing inspiration from the past to revolutionize the present, Riz looks to the greats -- Bob Marley, Luther Vandross, Marvin Gaye & Michael Jackson -- to bring sound and substance to your ears.
