Rick Black

Rick Black (also known as Big Rick) is the owner of Big Rick Black's Record Shack, Russel's former place of employment and Plastic Beach's record store.

Background
Rick Black is a morbidly obese record store owner from the United Kingdom. During a unknown point after the creation of Plastic Beach, Rick and his radio shack washed up onto the island's shore where it resided until the island was destroyed. Due to Rick's immense size, he is unable to leave his store as he is wedged behind the counter. Rick Black is also a loyal Gorillaz fan and owns every Gorillaz project released on both Digital, CD and Vinyl.

Rick Black is also the only Gorillaz side character to have his own official Twitter, being @bigrickblack.

He is presumed to be dead, although his time of death is unknown, having three possible options:


 * 1) Died in 2011 when Plastic Beach was bombed by the Black Clouds
 * 2) Died in between 2011-2020 during the bands absence from Plastic Beach
 * 3) Died in 2020 when the island was destroyed by Leee John in The Lost Chord's music video
