“Kung nakinig ako sa kanila matagal na ako tumigil sa musika,” Rico said.
Rico then indicated he would never listen to such people because it’s not them who brought him to where he is today but his fans.

He also revealed that he just played “to a sea of people in Davao” who were all dancing and singing along with him.

“My heart is full and i will keep doing my music my way. If you want to do things your way then make your own and i will respect you to the highest degree. Peace and love always ,” Rico concluded.
