A detailed set of accusations against electronic artist Ricky Souki, known as “Soukii,” has emerged publicly, with claims of repeated sexual assault, harassment, emotional abuse, drug misuse, and animal neglect. These allegations span incidents reported from late 2024 through 2025 and have gained traction following a comprehensive document shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) by the account “boycottsoukii.”
The document includes survivor testimonies outlining specific episodes of misconduct, painting a troubling picture of Souki’s behavior. In addition, it raises serious questions about the responsibility of Souki’s management, Rise Talent Group, accusing them of failing to act despite being informed of the allegations.
Discussion on r/festivals features a mixture of support for the survivors and skepticism toward some claims, particularly those alleging animal neglect. Some argue that incidents such as a dog with fleas may point more toward neglect rather than outright abuse, and caution against assuming all details are fully verified. Nonetheless, the community acknowledges the importance of transparency and accountability in such serious matters.
At this stage, no independent sources or official statements from the involved parties have confirmed or disputed these claims. The allegations remain unresolved but have sparked meaningful conversation about artist conduct and management ethics within the festival community.
