Riff Raff is the moniker of Houston, Texas-born rapper Jody Christian. After getting his start under the name MTV Riff Raff, an ode to the MTV logo he has tattooed on his neck, he teamed up with fellow rapper Simon Rex, also known as Dirty Nasty. The project became a trio called Three Loco with the addition of comedian Andy Milonakis, and the group released its eponymous first album in 2012. Riff Raff also dropped his debut solo record, The Golden Alien, in 2012, and has since continued to gain notoriety with his increasingly professional looking online videos and his subsequent releases.
