Tyron Ricketts is a musician, actor and presenter. He had his first band while still at school, and at the age of 21 he was already starring in his first feature film. Shortly thereafter, he started hosting his own show Word Cup on VIVA, which he produced completely on his own after just one year and now presents on the Internet. 2006 – 2009 he played in the main cast of Soko Leipzig, but never lost sight of his other passions, moderation and music. It is important to Tyron Ricketts to set political and social signs through his art. His self-produced film Afrodeutsch is partly used in school lessons and through his participation in the anti-racism project Brothers Keepers, Tyron combines entertainment with social commitment.
