Although the Covid-19 lockdown was a different experience for everyone, the universal feeling of it stunting creativity is common ground.

His new single, “Lost,” is an ultra-catchy hip-hop/r&b piece of art. With engaging lyrics and a captivating melody, Rick Smoove pours his heart into this unique track.
With the near-flawless execution of “Lost,” one would assume Rick has been a musician his whole life. Although being a lover of music and poetry from a young age, he had to put this passion aside for his athletic talents. In fact, Rick didn’t go to college for music but instead received a D1 scholarship to play football.
During Rick’s education at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut, is when he started to take his musical talents to the next level. After becoming close friends with his teammate, the two shared their common love of music. Since then, Smoove has released numerous singles dating back to 2017. “Lost,” though, is undoubtedly his most complex track yet.
Not only is the melody on “Lost” incredibly alluring, but Rick Smoove’s delivery is like nothing heard before. His raspy, low-toned voice delivers his lyrics as authentic poetry, delving into the deepest parts of his mind and heart. He discusses numerous topics ranging from love, loss, pain, and life’s hardships.
