About me:


Far away in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see the beauty, believe in them and try to follow where they lead.

I do not respond to business inquiries via MySpace, please contact steve@three21media.com for more information.



Rik Cordero is an independent music video, commercial, and film director of Filipino descent. He was born and raised in New York City and is known for applying unusual, non-traditional shooting methods in his work. He is also the founder and executive producer of the New York based production company Three/21 Films.

“At the last hour when no one's been calling him back about getting something done, he just went and did it on his own. I have to tip my hat off to you brother.”
NAS

“Rik Cordero is just his own universe. He’s trustworthy to where I believe in his vision for the song.”

URB Magazine

“His videos may be rugged and gritty, but Rik Cordero’s vision is 20/20.”
KING Magazine

“With a growing following and more cosigns than Obama, this Q-Borough native is redefining the role of internet videos, without an offer from Vivid or an E! reality show.”

XXL Magazine

ROLLING STONE Magazine

"Rik is well on his way to becoming a household name. Ask about him."

(*__^)
Baby
, when I met you there was peace unknown
I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb
I was soft inside, there was somethin going on
You do something to me that I cant explain
Hold me closer and I feel no pain
Every beat of my heart
We got somethin goin on
Tender love is blind
It requires a dedication
All this love we feel
Needs no conversation
We ride it together, ah-ah
Makin love with each other, ah-ah

Islands in the stream
That is what we are
No one in-between
How can we be wrong
Sail away
with me to another world
And we rely on each other, ah-ah
From one lover to another, ah-ah

I cant live without you if the love was gone
Everything is nothin if you got no one
And you did walk in tonight
Slowly loosen sight of the real thing

But that wont happen to us and we got no doubt
Too deep in love and we got no way out
And the message is clear
This could be the year for the real thing

No more will you cry
Baby, I will hurt you never
We start and end as one, in love forever
We can ride it together, ah-ah
Makin love with each other, ah-ah
Arthur-Sam
