Support the Legacy of Rich Smicks

We are devastated by the loss of Rich Smicks, A beloved artist and friend in the Belfast hip-hop community.

Rich was more than just a rapper; he was a beacon of hope and a voice for many young people facing many struggles.

His music touched lives and aimed to bring attention to the struggles the unheard and marginalised faced.

He spoke out against oppression and addiction and advocated for better understanding and support systems for people struggling.

Now, in his memory, we want to give back to the music community he cared so deeply about.

Rich’s immense influence in the Belfast music scene brought people together from all walks of life.

He was always keen to foster a sense of unity and cross-community so that people felt supported.

Rich's mum has expressed that she wishes to channel these funds back into the community and into the music scene.

Music is for many their only form of Therapy.

This GoFundMe campaign is dedicated to that cause.

Our Goal

Many friends and supporters of Rich are organizing events, selling merchandise, and finding other ways to raise money. We aim to collect all these funds through this GoFundMe account and hand them over to Rich's mum.

She will channel the funds to support initiatives that provide hope, opportunities, and support for young people in Belfast.
