Earlier this month, RiTchie dropped his debut solo song, “RiTchie Valens,” with a music video that followed him wandering alone through the desert on a hot day.

RiTchie co-founded Injury Reserve in 2013 with producer Parker Corey and rapper Stepa J. Groggs, and the group released its self-titled studio debut in 2019. The following year, Groggs died at the age of 32. Injury Reserve released one more album, September 2021’s By the Time I Get to Phoenix, before RiTchie and Corey retired the band’s name and chose to continue as By Storm.
