One of the strangest pop stars of the 2010s, Riff Raff has cut a jagged neon line through rap, country and reality TV and has even dabbled in professional wrestling. Though the Houston performer began honing his outlandish persona in the late 2000s—appearing on MTV’s From G’s to Gents with the network’s logo tattooed on his neck—he attained mainstream success around 2014 after signing to Diplo’s Mad Decent label and releasing his debut LP, Neon Icon. Known for his over-the-top boasts and wacky wordplay, Riff is currently touring behind his third and fourth full-length albums, Pink Python and Cranberry Vampire, both released in 2019.
