The 90 Day Fiancé franchise features many hopeful influencers, which includes a number of cast members who hope to be singers. The extended franchise has featured reality stars and their family members over the years who have shared their ambitions to make it big in music. This has led to many 90 Day Fiancé personalities sharing their rapping and singing talents, though not all cast members have been met with equal praise.
When 90 Day Fiancé season 1 first aired in 2014, it was praised for showcasing international relationships. Viewers witnessed four foreign women joining their American fiancés in the U.S. on the K-1 visa to get married within the designated ninety days. The show then featured the couples planning their weddings, while they also dealt with cultural differences and relationship problems. However, as the show has continued, viewers have accused more couples of manufacturing their drama to build careers as social media influencers.
While becoming a 90 Day Fiancé franchise influencer and earning online fame appears to be the main goal of many recent 90 Day Fiancé franchise couples, others have different career aspirations in the entertainment industry. When it comes to music, only a few 90 Day Fiancé franchise personalities show signs of actually making it big. These cast members dedicate their time to honing their skills and creating original content. The majority of cast members with musical ambitions have been mocked by viewers and have had their original content panned. This has led to musical talent being very lacking in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise with a few talented exceptions.
Riverknight Everett
Riverknight Everett is known as Chantel Jimeno’s laid-back younger brother on The Family Chantel. The 24-year-old also has singing ambitions that he is currently devoting all of his time to. The Atlanta rapper released the albums Below the Surface and The Journey. He also dropped some new tracks this summer during The Family Chantel season 4. Riverknight, who has his music listed under his birth name, though he goes by “River” on The Family Chantel, recently began touring. Chantel's younger brother performed across Texas and has another tour being planned for the fall. He also plans to release a new music video sometime soon. While many 90 Day Fiancé franchise cast members have abandoned their musical ambitions, Riverknight appears to be just getting started with his music career.
Usman “Sojaboy” Umar
Usman “Sojaboy” Umar became notorious for his relationship on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days after he married Lisa Hamme. Usman infamously wrote his ex-wife a song before their split. Usman, who performs as “Sojaboy,” considers himself an international superstar. Though the Nigerian man hasn’t hit it big outside the 90 Day Fiancé franchise and possibly his home country, he does have a super fan in the form of Kimberly Menzies. Kim and Usman are currently dating after Kim fell for him due to his music. Kim is obsessed with Usman and his music even after he recorded a music video titled “Zara” in front of Kimberly despite the fact that it was secretly about his ex-girlfriend.
Darcey & Stacey Silva
Darcey and Stacey Silva come from a wealthy family, which has allowed them to pursue many creative ambitions. The twins have the clothing boutique House of Eleven, while Darcey launched them to reality TV fame on Before the 90 Days prior to the sisters landing the spinoff Darcey & Stacey. While they are known for their extreme plastic surgery, Darcey and Stacey aren’t becoming pop icons anytime soon. The duo performs as The Silva Twins, though many franchise fans have panned their music. Darcey and Stacey got their start in 2013 when they recorded background vocals for a song in the film White T. They have since released a number of singles, though viewers do not consider them to be musically talented.
Biniyam Shibre
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way star Biniyam Shibre has appeared in many seasons of 90 Day Fiancé franchise content. Though his current ambition is to become an MMA fighter, Biniyam also dabbled in music. Biniyam’s wife, Ariela Weinberg, supported his music as he recorded “Dancey Dancey” under his performing name “Baby Cool.” However, Biniyam appears to have traded in his musical ambitions for a dream as an MMA fighter.
Tarik Myers
Like Riverknight and Usman, 90 Day Fiancé franchise cast member Tarik Myers also dabbled in rapping. Unfortunately for Tarik, his rapping skills have often been called out. 90 Day Fiancé cast member Jovi Dufren led the pack when it came to bashing Tarik, though he appears to enjoy creating music. Tarik has released a hip hop album and memorably proposed to his franchise wife Hazel Cagalitan with a song he wrote named “Far Round the Way Girl.” Tarik released his album and his subsequent music under the name “Dirt DayOH.”
Topher Park
While some of the more prominent 90 Day Fiancé franchise stars have been known for trying to launch singing careers, The Other Way cast member Deavan Clegg’s boyfriend Topher Park also tried his luck at music. Deavan has been branded desperate for fame and attention by viewers, while Topher was accused of faking paparazzi shots to appear relevant. Topher has shared music on his YouTube channel in an apparent attempt to become an influencer. Topher appears to have sung both covers and original songs, though his videos were not particularly popular.
Jibri Bell
Jibri Bell appeared on a recent season of 90 Day Fiancé season 9, where he quickly became a franchise villain after he acted out at the Tell-All. Jibri, who was born David Bell, is the lead singer of the band Black Serbs. The group was performing in Serbia when Jibri met his now-wife Miona Bell. However, the future of the band was thrown in jeopardy when Miona was not accepted by Jibri’s bandmates. Jibri has also expressed a desire to launch a solo career.
Libby Potthast
Libby Potthast Castravet is the latest 90 Day Fiancé franchise star to announce her desire to work as a singer. Libby shocked viewers by revealing on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 7 that she now wants to pursue singing rather than real estate. 90 Day Fiancé star Libby set up a studio in her home and declared that she wanted to sing and record nursery rhymes alongside her daughter Ellie. However, many 90 Day Fiancé franchise fans have been widely slamming Libby since she shared a video of her singing. Viewers claimed she looked like she was in extreme pain.
