Chantel launched her family to fame after she appeared on 90 Day Fiancé season 4 alongside her now estranged husband, Pedro Jimeno.

While Winter has impressed fans with her weight loss journey on social media, Riverknight has been sharing his music with his audience. The Family Chantel fans were initially skeptical of his rapping skills, as many 90 Day Fiancé cast members have musical ambitions.

Overall, Riverknight is a rarity in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise when it comes to his music. Many franchise cast members, such as Darcey and Stacey Silva, Tarik Myers, and Biniyam Shibre, have expressed an interest in music. However, Riverknight has continued to pursue music and prove to viewers that it is not just a hobby. Though The Family Chantel storylines have preferred to focus on Riverknight’s dating life or how he supports his family members during their relationships, music is a constant in the life of Chantel’s younger brother. This has allowed Riverknight to take his childhood passion and turn it into a career that The Family Chantel star hopes to continue to pursue in the future.
